Out new this month In Germany are four new bagged sets featuring a baby Pegasus in each. They are themed to the four seasons, and each includes some interesting items in a well developed mini-scene.
5351 Spring Fairy with Pegasus Baby Cherryblossom
(http://animobil.info/animoblog/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/5351.jpg)
This is the simplest of the four. It has the baby Pegasus in pink tones, a couple of the light pink butterflies, various plants and a fairy with green hair and pink clip on wings. The dark pink leaf/flower piece in the center may be the only new scenery item. With a change of hair the fairy could easily become a modern theme woman ready for exercise. Note in the exploded view that the wings of the Pegasus are separate and press into holes on the body.

5352 Summer Fairy with Pegasus Baby Summer Wind
(http://animobil.info/animoblog/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/5352.jpg)
The summer themed bag is very summer feeling indeed. The baby Pegasus is in bright blue and green and is accompanied by a figure in a great green outfit and golden hair. With a hair change and removing the green tutu she would fit into any summer beach themed scene beautifully. Other animals in the set are the flamingo, a dragonfly in pink, a tortoise, the light and dark blue clam shells and a set of white seashells. The scenery base piece here seems new, with a nice sand colored base with a water piece in it.

5353 Autumn Fairy with Pegasus Baby Gold Dust
(http://animobil.info/animoblog/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/5353.jpg)
The Autumn themed bag is very forest and gold in tone. The Pegasus baby is yellow and a lovely gold color. The fairy looks familiar and has the large wings that clip into a system X hole on the back of her torso. She uses mostly parts from the Figures Series 5 fairy except for different arms and the inclusion of the shoulder piece. The interesting scenery piece here are the sunflowers, with orange brown centers and reflective gold petals. Different from the previous version and quite nice looking for fantasy scenes.

5354 Winter Princess with Pegasus Baby Snowflake
(http://animobil.info/animoblog/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/5354.jpg)
The winter themed bag includes some very interesting pieces. The baby Pegasus here is white with a nice blue. It has a silver basket with blue basket cloth, both new. Also very new is the scenery piece – the white small base with a blue tree trunk and the small weeping willow branches in a translucent white. The flowers on them are the edelweiss ones from the Alpine theme done in silver. The figure here really stands out. She has a silver cape and head decoration, the reflective blue hair, the narrow silver cuffs, and a large dress made of transparent dark blue. She has a glass with blue liquid in it – the liquid is a separate piece that you fit into the glass. Also included are the white owl and kittens pair.

Note that she has regular legs with silver riding boots under the skirt rather than the dress type leg piece.
This is a great set of bags. Some very interesting items in them and the baby Pegasus mold is a great one. They retail for 9,99€ and seem like a good deal. I am very happy I picked them up.

Wow, I didn't know about these sets, so this was a nice surprise! Great pictures and review!
I really like the 'seasons' theme to the sets, and think they've done a great job of accessories that reflect that theme.

As I've said before I'm not really into the whole Fairy thing or all the girly sets but, I've got to admit even I can see the attraction in them there's something about those Pegasus horses which is rather appealing particularly with the last being less bright and bold. The summer scenery and witner scenery is partcularly nice and I really like the winter tree with it's decoration no dobut could be very useful in winter settup, and also the coral tree although I'm sure someone's shown photos of some similar trees, the fairies are also interesting aprticularly the outfit on the last one liking the silver cape :)

Thank you for the nice review and great pictures :love:
I really like autumn and winter. They're lovely sets. A very nice souvenir to bring!

This review totally sold me on the Autumn fairy! I didn't realize the sunflowers were golden! *Playmobil, do not read that. I don't want a lot of golden things... just this one piece in this one set is a nice touch. If you are going to take away anything from this, follow up with more snowy-white environmental scenes. Those are awesome. I love the frozen tree.*

aw! so cute!
it's nice they are associated with the four seasons, nice idea. :love:
-
They're great, and on my definite buy list (a couple of the winter ones!)
Thanks for the detailed pics :love:

I love the fairies (they are so good at being crane operators etc) but, although I can see how they might appeal to others, I'm not at all into the Pegasus horses. Nice colours: I just don't like the wings (or the holes, if one omits them). At the moment, anyway. I'm really good at changing my mind if I actually buy something.....
And the Summer Fairy set is appealing to me, with the cool plants and the water, and the fairy's hair (it looks like there are no wings for her though - which is a pity), and the flamingo too ... by the way, can it stand independently of that white stand (pale lily pad?) beneath its feet?
(And even in the course of writing this, I'm thinking that the green wings on Baby Summer Wind just may be kind of cute after all.)
The Autumn/Fall fairy is nice, and the plants: maybe I'll be tempted, though I really don't need any more hedgehogs, nor another fawn, and certainly no more apples!
Winter colours are beautiful (though, again, no wings for the fairy - though I do like those silver boots).
Spring, I'm not so keen on (too similar to what I already have). Though the pale pink butterflies are cool.
Brilliant and clear review. Very helpful.

I didn't think I was going to get any of these fairy and pegasus bags, but now I see the summer fairy is wearing a beautiful bikini. I'll need to get her to add to the beach crowd :)
Thanks for the review and the tip, Tim!

The flamingo stands upright fine though is easily pushed over. If you want it to bend down then you need the stand for balance.
-
If they'd put a long white braid on the winter one she could be like Elsa from Frozen, much the same way the Series 6 one is kind of like Malificent. :lol:
-
These are so nice. I've been wanting the winter one for a while now. I read her more as a snow queen than a fairy. I didn't know the skirt was tranparent, which makes me want it even more. And I like the look of the baby pegasuses more than the adult ones. I can't wait, although it'll be a year until they're here.
-
I love them all just for the scenery... but I am in LOVE with the winter set!
-
I haven't seen these before! Thanks so much Tim for your thorough review and amazing photos. :)
I really like the Summer and Winter sets. The summer figure reminds me of Paris Hilton. Random, I know. 8}

Thanks for sharing pics!
The themes for these were well thought out. Four seasons items appeal to me somehow. I like the autumn one the best - not too keen on the spring one. The winter one is my second favorite.
