4840 and 4841 Drachenland
« on: December 27, 2009, 16:56:38 »



4840 and 4841 from the new Drachenland theme.

This review was actually going to be a "What did YOU get for Christmas?" topic ...  :xholly:

On Christmas morning I was stunned when I opened the two packages from our daughter. I was totally surprised! I had no idea that she had ordered these two sets for me from Germany. I had not dropped any hints nor left any clues that I really wanted any of the new Dragonland sets. Yet, here they were. And, just as beautiful as I had hoped that they would be.

After opening the very attractive boxes and after looking at the contents, I just had to share them with you. As many of you know, I love fantasy of any kind. And these two Playmobil sets are fantasy in its most wonderful form.

Hi Richard  :elf:

Patience my two "little grasshoppers" ...  ;)

I forgot to charge my laptop, so I had to go get the AC connect cable. And, while I was wandering around Susan asked if I was fixing lunch ... :)

Way back in August of 2008, Timotheous reviewed 5836. Shortly after, Rasputin reviewed 4775 in September of 2008.

That was long before most of us ever knew that there was going to be a Drachenland Theme from Playmobil.

I fell in love :love: with these little green Klickys. They looked a lot like a group of forest elfs.

When I finally got back to the mainland and rushed to my nearest Target store, I sadly discovered that they were all gone.

I looked at Target online and saw that I could order sets 4775 and 5836!

I received them in about a week and fell in love all over again. I never realized that this was just the beginning.

When I opened set 4840 Christmas morning, I couldn't wait to bring out the sets that I had got online from Target almost a year ago. IMHO, this is a wonderful magical theme from Playmobil ...  :love:

Since I've been so effusive over the "little green forest elfen Klickys" from Playmobil, let's look at them first.

Set 4841, like set 4840, has a battery charged LED weapon which works great!

This box (4841) contains an "evil" mounted knight. (You can tell he's evil because of the beard stubble on his face and because of his "shadowed" eyes.) ... ;)

As I think that Andi may have said in an earlier post, you don't have to place the red "ball" between the horns. However, I think that it adds a certain amount of "evilness" to this figure ... ;)

BTW, the horse furniture is beautiful.

I really like the new head armour for the horse. I'm looking forward to that set eventually.
