All the sets together cost about 250 euros. It is quite a lot but its fun discovering the new aspect and designs of Playmobil. Who knows? They might not even produce sets with similar design, especially on klickies.

The weapons light up because the breath of the dragon (blue fire) gave them its mugic touch...
The big dragon's mouth also lights up but the effect is not very exciting...not nearly as ecxiting as the blue flame flashing!!!!

they are plastic. Note that the if I lower that gate you will realise that the rock is actually the head of the dragon...

I suspect they had complaints or a safety aspects to consider. Kids these days are likely to poke, pry up nose, swallow or otherwise injure themselves if allowed to play with anything, and then the parents will try to sue the company for their offspring's stupidity.

I'm happy that in my day we were allowed more dangerous toys, and if one or two children killed or maimed themselves, it was put down to natural wastage and added to the Darwin Award List.



On a slight tangent, has anybody else noticed the near-simultaneous release of the Playmobil Dragon World theme with the Dreamworks Animated Movie "How to Train Your Dragon".

Knowing Playmobil's track record I can't help cynically chalking this up to more luck than judgement, but I bet it'll help with Playmobil's sales.
