To me it seems Geobra is doing to toys as the same thing Mercedes did to cars. Over engendered. I know they have some of the most sophisticated dual color, moving parts in one pass, dual-consistencie  plastic injection machines in the world but when is it enough. Mercedes made a great car and just could not stop in the engineering department, rendering the car near impossible to work on.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Thank you - I like them :)
Me too! Less golden than the 6000s, which is a plus.

I see a new release of the non-chrome nuremberg guard helmets, only once seen in a Nordsee exclusive and now rare. This is reason for joy. Otherwise a lot of repeated parts, but that can be expected in such a well-trodden field.

I try to work out more about the 'benign' castle, shown in the distance. Three storeys, cool. Is the gate a repeat of the 4866? If so, the shape for the heraldry is different ... I just cannot tell. Exciting!

Best wishes

My pads are killing me, too.
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

Our friends of Amclicks shared some high res pictures (...)

Thanks again! No fresh pictures of the benign castle here, but the evil castle is shown in full. :knight:



Clearly a noble descendant of 3269, this is much better than that pitiful 6001. Although there are similarities to 4835/4836, it appears to be an entirely new product. I like what I see (especially the lava :love:) - please show us more!

Playmobil responded to a question about licensed themes on facebook a little while ago by saying they have announced a "Back to the Future" license at Toy Fair but details are secret for now.
Someday, I will organize my stuff, I promise.

It seems to be official, I made a separate topic about this: http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=16824.msg302985;topicseen#msg302985

Love the new fire horse and some of the other figures and details from that set.

From the News thread - Playmobil is planning a US factory and had a sales increase of 20% in the US last year due to selling at Walmart and Target. translated article here
