Silly- the rocks are just the top part of a 100 meter cliff that the fort is perched upon.  I <3's it!


 :lol: Yes, I had thought about at least making the rocks behind them be a big mountain, but I like your version better. ;)

I think that in the Western sets the calvery horses are branded  :D! I wonder if the brand would match the one in the Snake River Ranch set?

Will the add-ons/ds items be revealed with the toy fair news? That's what I'm most excited about!!!!

Couple of thoughts, and I haven't read all the posts, so, these may be addressed.
Given that so far there only seems to be one hotel picture, I'm wondering if these can be stacked one on top of another to make a big hotel, or even side by side to make a motor hotel, ala 'motel'.  Also, while we see a maid (everyone's got to have one) how about guests and other staff? 
Also, I"m thinking that with the Western sets (like probably the hotel) there will be a bunch of smaller sets to go with them.
As far as the Western sets, so far kinda neat. I particularly like the guy working the mines in the prison stripes. I thought those were a thing of the past until seeing a road crew of prisoners a year or two ago in Georgia.
Btw, did anyone notice there seems to be a door of some sort in the rock base in the fort? Is that a prison there, or does it lead to the secret escape tunner?
Lastly, I sure would love one of those big display figures.  8-)

Oh, I hadn't even noticed the door in the rocks! Looks interesting.

Does one of the soldiers in the fort set have blonde sideburns? Would this be a first? I wish they had more klickies with those ... very handy.

I didn't notice this detail! I don't think it's been featured before now.

I think most people must have PLENTY of guests, no? I know I could fill a few hundred of those tiny rooms.... Poor maid.  :P

That's the best part of the fort! Makes me wanna get it....  ::)

Yeah, me too... One day.

No pics, but information and release dates for Germany/Benelux/Austria/Switzerland(?)/Norway, and a few other EU-countries belonging to Geobra's "homemarket":

I'm leaving out the Surprise Figures-series 2 & 3 of which we've seen pics before, the special-Plus seires-1 and -2 as well...

Mai 2012: Limited Editions:
*submarine
*take-along dollhouse with 4 furnitured rooms

Mid-August 2012: WESTERN
(Fort, Goldmine, Plane-wagon, Sheriff/Marschal with horse, bandits, indians, soldiers with cannon, ...)

End of August 2012: (MODERN) HARBOR-CARGO facilities
10 sets, including a cargoship, cargo-crane, a (small) RC-cargotrain and cargo/passenger-airplane

PS:
Olympic athletes around May 2012. Soccer is coming out a bit earlier on the year, we've seen some of the soccer-players already I think. I've no picture saved, but the soccer-field would be in a take-along-case.
