Title: Add-Ons 2017
Post by: Tiermann on June 01, 2017, 23:58:29
The new add-ons have been released on the Playmobil.de site.

In animals there are only two new color variations - a pony and a pony colt in one set together. There are other nice animals to see including the pheasant and the fallow deer which will make their first appearance int he US next January when these add-ons are released here.
I really like the new Eskimo set, they look great and am happy to see the other winter theme add-ons like the shop and the curling set.
The red house back again is nice - I will probably get one more and it would be nice if they do the blue one in the future since I missed that one last time.  The availability of the Roman Arena parts will be nice. I might finally make one with seating all around by getting the add-on and 4 of the seating parts from DS (currently available from Playmobil.de at 7,85 or so each)

What do you all think?

Eskimo family is a must have (except I don't think traditional Eskimos used boat hooks or cast iron pots).

Quite a few nice things. Great to be able to stock up again on Arena parts, as Tiermann said (hopefully they have rectified the brittle problem with the bronze parts, known to snap easily), as well those for the classic siege tower.

The appearance  of the Jagdgesellschaft (6564) is another reason for joy, alas not for the eBay speculators: I just received from DS a couple of falconer's gloves at 0.21 € a piece  8} :(o):

Best wishes

The 6564 is just what I wished for!
I ordered one today! YEY.....

They really listened to me.
Let's pray for the re-release of 3626 next year!

I was recently thinking that I'd missed out on 5574 - Luxury Villa, and now its reduced. But then there's the unknown postage factor.....I'm tempted.

After the Piano and Laundress set, I'd hoped for more of the smaller Victorian sets to make it to DS, so I'm a bit disappointed on that front.

I missed out on the Red House first time around, so I might try and pick that up when it makes it to the UK

I'm glad they reissued the Red Medieval House. I need to buy the reissues that are now discontinued like the Piano, Laundry Room, and Detective.

Love the new "polar family", the new boots and the hat on the little boy.  Wonder if they will release the sleds and igloos again.  I have several of the original sets, and bring them out occasionally but I do need to bring back the white someday, they have aged poorly. 

also love the grandma's outfit.
We need a german address.

I've used mailbox.de in the past - I'd missed out on a lot of re-issues while I was living in Australia, and while they'd been cancelled in the UK they were still available on sale at the German site. The postage from Germany to the UK wasn't cheap, but since they were all on sale through the German site it didn't work out too badly
