Title: Add Ons 2023
Post by: Tiermann on December 19, 2022, 18:35:54
First leaks are out. Medieval we have a version of the Museum (no silver armor in the image), the blacksmith forge, and the blue house. There is also an Arabian Nights type theme rumoured, with the magic carpet and a couple other sets. Usual place at Amclicks plus social media spots.

It looks like the male figure is holding a silver crown? The museum is the most interesting I guess, since it provides the double arch, corner roof pieces and staircase.

To have 6 of the little Steck buildings available at once is pretty amazing.

I was expecting the prices to rise, but this is getting out of hand, if pics from THAT site are true..  :(

I really want the blue house klicky - the house would not be in the plans, and at that price... Gods. 
(still didn't get my hands on the new prisoner from the bell-less bell tower)

The museum again without the armor and cannon = meh. Need to see the klickys.

I don't know if the rest of Europe followed the UK, but they dropped the price of pretty much everything on Playmobil Plus a few months in last year, so I'll be surprised if we get the big price hikes here - strange really, because historically the UK was more expensive than the rest of Europe

I spent a fortune on my blue house, so this price still seems a bargain.

Happy that I'll be able to get more Museum buildings at a reasonable price. The roof and arches are just great. The accessories with the Museum seem nice, too. Generally speaking, the figure coming with the new buildings are quite attractive. Even if they are of modern design, this is kept low-key so that they still resemble classical klickys of old. Good job, Playmobil!  :)9

Besides the money, space is a serious problem, and one I CANNOT fix. Moneywise, I could slowly buy them. But the space is set, and will not increase, so I am in trouble.

Same here but there is a solution: circulate! Out with the old, in with the new. I'll be selling some old Steck to make space for box-fresh parts :love:

That just doesn't work for me... what is a part of our collection, is to stay... At least creatures are not an issue - no questions there.

I have been tempted to get rid of a couple of items, but...

Besides, it would not be enough  ::) :-[


Regarding these reissues, nothing REALLY of interest there, I think - though steck is never too much, we do have those buildings, and the price is beyond ridiculous. I do like the klickys, but..

I think their premise is that if you are a "collector" you have lots of money to spend or are willing to spend lots of money whether you have it or not.

Yes - 3 from this year (Yellow House, Bakery, Watch Tower) and 3 new ones (Blue House, Museum, Blacksmiths). The Blacksmiths is all-stone, which I think makes it 'new' (the previous one was part timber-framed/fachwerk).

Regarding price...by any measure Playmobil is significantly cheaper than when these sets were first issued. 5300 was £100 in 1989. The current Bakery and Yellow House are cheaper than they were last time they were re-issued (at least in the UK, but that is coming from a slightly weird stand point so it might not be the same in other territories). Plus, if you're willing to be patient, there is always a '25% off everything' sale around the corner.

I don't know if they were previously available in the rest of Europe, but Alexander the Great and Leonidas & Xerxes are available on the UK site now.

This Alexander the Great set is a very good entry level set to draw in adult collectors in my opinion. Right amount of items for posing.

I have some of the older Medieval buildings, but I would certainly like to get these ones too! I wish the silver armour were included though. :(

Are there any pictures available of Set 1004 or Set 1005? Or is there any evidence that they may be rereleased versions of older sets?

The new medieval houses are available online now, if you've been waiting for them (personally I'll hold out for a 25% off week  :lol:)
