Zdrasste, Ras,

I couldn't find the new specials, pirates, or police you mentioned.

Neither could I.  Maybe as I'm using a bookmark it's calling up an old page from the cache.  (Although, using the same bookmark to get to the UK pages there are changes, but only deletions so far.)

Hello Rasputin!
I couldn't find the new themes on the USA Playmobil website, but it looks quite barren @ the moment with very few items for sale! I hope it's just because of the holidays, & everyone bought everything, not a future trend with lack of available credit, causing limited stock! DS has been low on inventory lately also  >:(!

The UK site is the same as they are clearing out then discontinued items and haven't yet got the new stuff uploaded.  (Well, I hope that's why!)

Maybe i was not specific enough. Well actually i was not specific enough , The Pictures that are the Theme links are new and the sets inside the link have been cleared out but the new sets have not been added yet . Sorry for my misleading post .

"????????????"- pronounced "ZDRAS-tvuy-tye" Timotheos, being less formal in here  "??????"- pronounced "pri-VET" works very well also . You have to remember the the R is not like an english R it is an vibrating kid motor sound with the tongue not the throat .

I guess the site does not recognize foreign text , It is in here

Thanks Ras!

I self-studied Russian for a year in highschool, but never got beyond the "graded readers" (trimmed down re-writes of Russian lit).  I know next to nothing about how it is pronounced or how real people actually speak it.

I did learn to adore Mikhail Lermontov's "Geroi Nashevo Vremeni" (A Hero of our Times), an adventure novel about a Russian officer stationed in the Caucas Mountains.

There is (or was) a Russian Bookstore in Rockville, Maryland called "Viktor Kamkin's" that I used to order books from in the 1990s.  Two of my pride of collection are Tolkien's "Fellowship of the Ring" (Khraniteli) and the "Two Towers" (Dve Tverdyni). 

The "Return of the King" must not have been published at the time...

if you are still wondering rasputin, this is the 5780 pirate's raft.
i bought one in 2006, so i guess it can't be considered a noveltie. :)

Timotheos I am now rereading an edited version of " The Grand Inquisitor " by Dostoevsky  8}
wait a minute those pictures are of books written in Russian. You were able to learn to read? I struggle now-a-days to read and i have very few to speak with  :-[. 


Cachalote I find it odd that they sent me a "item available" notice now, its not even on the web site  ???

Rasputin,

The 5780 set is on their site now, several sets and items have been added since last night. Their is a pirate 3 pack in which the center figure looks like he would make a good Sinbad or Aladdin figure with the bald fellow on his left as a sidekick.
