It hit the german market September of 2012, so if it goes by the regular schedule, it will come here to the US in September 2013. :( A very long wait. There's always a chance that Toys R Us will get it early though, and that could be early next year I believe. They always get a couple of themes early.

Thanks bb! I just don't think I can wait another year!

Luckily there's someone selling the entire theme on ebay. This does not include the extension floor or add-on furnishings. It does include the penthouse, van, maid service, bellhop and disco (which seems very polly pocket to me).

I guess I'll have to test my restaint. We'll see how that goes!

Yeah, you'll probably overpay for it if you get it early, but for some themes it's worth it! Btw, I agree that disco thing is really silly. :hmm:

I haven't looked at that set before, and I don't collect modern theme sets, but it looks sort of cool to me. Not quite a Diskothek because it's apparently a children's version, but it's still an interesting idea for a set. :lol:

Whilst I like the idea of this theme, Geobra are sorely disappointing me by introducing "girl' sets in pastel colours. We have Fisher Price for that . :hmm:

I'm going to paint the roof pieces,and possibly the beds. The uniforms will have to stay dark pink though.
