Is the ship really a fullsize ship? I have a bad feeling it's a system why truncated version...Hope I'm wrong!

Horrible choice to have some figures with the creepy non playmobil like eyes. It looks especially terrible together like this with the classics.

While the ship itself looks nice in colours, it's really pathetic that Odysseus has no crew. Just one dude on a ship way too big for him to sail on his own, and two.. harpies? Sirens? Not sure what they are meant to be. This is one of the worst cases of sets coming with not enough figures I have seen so far.
There used to be sets with eight figures. This one should at least have two more.

Lovely sets. That new Hydra is a must  :love:

A shame about the gods.. it's almost like they don't want to sell it.. oh.. wait!  ::)

These look like the fully printed ones (not the ones with printing over the moulded eyes), so I think removing them would mean removing the eyes entirely. If you want to change them, it'd probably be better to replace the heads with other heads. ;)

Yep..

Golden cow!  :D  I hope they are generally available this time from the start.  Boxes seem normal and not Greek market specific.

Thanks for sharing these. They look great!

I think that's a new colour for the leather helm as well. :)

I will try to remove the paint of the two female characters' eyes back to the classical klicky version though.

Love how they adopt a darker tone with the historical theme. I will try to remove the paint of the two female characters' eyes back to the classical klicky version though.

Some new Ancient Greek sets coming, spotted them on Facebook;

https://www.facebook.com/Aesclick

72178 – Odysseus and the Sirens
72179 – The Adventures of Odysseus
72180 – Greek Gods Set 4

Nothing very new in terms of moulds, but the colours/sail on the boat are nice, and the 'Sirens' might be new? I wonder if the Argo boat is being discontinued?

The Greek Gods are just a re-package - hopefully they aren't retiring the individual ones.

The Scylla is just a re-colour of Hercules Hydra (even though technically it should have 6 heads...)

These are branded as 'Adventure' rather than 'History' - I'm sure this is part of Playmobil's on-going mission to make sets as difficult to find as possible on the web-site.

Thanks Tahra!

I never had any of the Super-4 figures, and I actually thought the Spirit Figures were meant to be teens thinking about it? I find it hard to keep track of all the 'weird' body types they've had and I don't like the slimmer figures particularly. It does make sense for this figure, who's meant to be a teenager, and I think it looks fine but often they look slightly odd to me.

What's mostly interesting to me is that it's apparently the first 'teenage' figure, although I don't know if it's shorter or just a more slender body?

It's a lame Super 4 body :(

New figure for the German Youth Fire Brigade. The German Fire Service is still largely a voluntary service, including 380,000 youths
