The knights are not too bad, but the box ... a waste of plastic  ::)

I find the carrying cases to be a waste of plastic, too! And if someone from outside the US wanted us to send them one, it just adds unnecessary weight.  ::)

Will the other "US exclusives"  go worldwide?

I recently purchased this set and I agree that the carrying case is a waste of plastic that ups the cost of this set. >:(  It also looks like Playmobil owes the design of the knight in this set to Arnaud! :)

The helmet from this set is not new, but the yellow reins and bridle are.  Also, the red on the tunic and saddle is a darker red while the shield is the normal red.  I would have preferred the normal red for all parts, as it would make him easier to customize.  Still, he's a good looking knight and his blue companion isn't too bad either. :knight:

If nothing else, PM could improve its green credentials. How many millenia would it take for a case like this to biodegrade?  ;D ;D ;D

I agree that the cases up the price but you can use them for spare parts. I have twenty or so of these cases that are packed full of loose parts. I like the cases with dividers better than the open ones.

Happy to report that its now available in Greece for 9,99 euros...

also available: 5970 - Carrying Case Vet Clinic
and 5971 - Carrying Case School


---EDIT---

however, i think the 9,99 cover the cost of the carrying case, as the content is not very satisfying  :lol:
Apart from the fluer-de-lis knight, the rest are not thrilling at all... the horse should have a caparison...
