Thanks for the better pictures - but goodness, these figures have weird proportions
-
The horse and cart would be useful for my railway and would go well with the Victorian truck and car.
2018 is looking a bit brighter.
Not on the website yet to check on plans.

As I feared - they're the werid (I'm being nice) body types from Ruby and the Super 4 fairies...
So, only horses and bits for us.. and a couple of normal klickys, if I can get my hands on them.. Oh, and that one's HAIR!!! :love:
-
What about the faces of poor Maricela and Lucky in 9476?!! They look like persons with the syndrome of Down and really no offence towards people who have the disease, they are the sweetest people in the world.
But! The new horses look really nice! I really like the carriage with the father and the bedroom is well developed, the colours fit with everything.
-
Mom & Dad look quite nice, but their offspring seems to have been exposed to radiation from the Mars Theme.
8} To me those are NOT klickies anymore :hmm:
I like the wagon, it´s the covered-wagon design from the last Western-release but in a much lighter brown ... and (sadly) without a cover.
The bedroom looks indeed also quite okay.

The problem is that they are cheap painted heads, and the printing is too "high", compared to other klickys.
-
Love the wagon, horses are all new paint types but looks like the usual bodies. Eyebrows on the horses? :hmm:
-
Love set 9477 but other then that I have to roll my eyes. The house looks like one piece that cannot be made into anything else (Fisherprice style) and the figures, I do not even want to call them klickies because they are not.
Would not mind getting a few barrels (by the front steps in the picture) from set 9475 but thats all I want from that.
-
The house ... (Fisherprice style)
My thought exactly. ::)

I'm not sure if it's that, that the neck portion of the torsos look proportionally wrong, or that the bodies are too small for the heads, but there is definitely something off. The Super 4 characters looked better than these ones.
Eyebrows on the horses? :hmm:
That does look quite strange. :lol:
-
Yeah the figures are odd looking. We are very used to standard Playmobil proportions so anything deviating from that looks weird.
The house looks to me more like the ones from the Calico Critters line.

I hope their heads are still round so changing heads, hair, beard etc still works...
....why don't they stick to just one standard form for all 'speedo' figures....then we can slowly accept them :-\
...still, a good supply of parts for dioramas
....thanks for sharing Tahra!! :love:

They should advertise this:
The Mansion can be easily combined with the barn in “our” assortment:

There's a few nice pieces, but overall it looks not Playmobil. Printed eyes on the horses, printed faces, bodies way out of proportion to the heads (PM normally has large heads, so making the bodies skinnier doesn't work). Poor Maricela is wearing a barrel. The house has a great styles, but they made it one big piece with a virtually useless inside. :-\

I believe it IS that - regarding the heads alone. Normal klickys with printed heads have the exact same problem. Look at the catalog pic for series 3 "science woman with the gorgeous hair"... She looks stupid. Because the print is far too "high". Also, the red mouth somehow doesn't really work for me :(
I hope their heads are still round so changing heads, hair, beard etc still works...
These bodies are NOT compatible. I THINK the arms from the super4 ones are speedo arms. But I am not sure. The starved ones are REALLY ugly and weird, and I seriously doubt they work with anything else.

The house looks ok, from the front. If it was system X, it would be a MUST. Like this... no. I do like the weathercock (is it that, if it features a horse? ???) and the other thingie... And the woman, and the barrel.
The "stables" are ugly, the stupid colors makes it look weird. Like some cheap junk. Not the look I'd expect playmobil to aim for :(
I do want the horsies. And that hair. No interest in the weird klickys. I like the guy with the wagon, and the camp, and the horsies.. but really habe no need for more wagons.

hmmmm
Interesting Theme but the Head from Maricela look ugly, more oval ??
The coach looks great !!
We will see....

The house would be lovely if it was done in the old style with steck parts...
Weather vane is the term, I think. The other thing - a finial maybe?
The green wardrobe appeals to me. Probably because it screams Playmobil the most and is a Victorian mold.

I don't think it would be very doable with steck, unless there were some major new parts... (I would prefer that). But system x...

Thank you! They are both gorgeous. I wonder if they made the sizes non-compatible with the previous ones. :wall: Maybe they forgot?

It IS the victorian one, right? With different colors.
-
Yep, it's the Victorian one re-coloured. There is also a re-colour of the Victorian stove with the house, and the bent-wood chairs from the 'country kitchen'(5336) - there's what looks like a kitchen bench but I can't see it properly in the picture.
There's bits of the house that are quite nice (the weather vane, the porch), but I imagine they're not compatable with anything else

Exactly :( AND it's less than half a house.

Wow, great catch Oliver! I didn’t see the Victorian stove so far! Spare parts service, 10 please!

Not the fairies. They look weird without the skirts, creepy even. These look better than that but they're basically fairy bodies.
-
I missed the stove as well. Good catch! I wish we could see the kitchen better.

I thought I should share these, found them on a second hand page of Playmobil on Facebook. Oh, and the quality was like that.. If anyone has better pictures, please share!
