 :o Want.


Because French is confusing: It's the 200th anniversary of his death that's coming up, not birth.

If it is that limited, I'm guessing it won't be easy to get...

Is the original price known yet?

I'll never understand that.

 :yippee: x1000

The trend is now firmly established, depicting historical and cultural figures as klickies is a winning formula. I think we're only a few years away from the Gnomes finally getting the message and bringing out proper historical sets.

Nappy here looks great and I must have at least one! They already did a Nap as a Fi?ure, that one had a green coat though.

Now they need to make a French Imperial grenadier klicky.

There was no Playmobil on the bicentenary of his birth, and we don't want to wait for his 300th birthday.  :lol:

:lmao: :lmao:

It would still make more sense to make it for ANY anniversary (of his birth) than his death :s

I was wondering about that -  is the sense of 'is that actually particularly limited?' Have they ever said how many of a figure has been released before? I know that Martin Luther sold really quickly, and I guess they're of a similar stature. I dug a bit and according to The Guardian, the Albrecht Dürer sold 80,000 units over three years
