Thanks for the review. It's a nice e looking piece of landscaping. Would make a good entry point for a bigger proper pirate island.

The rocks (and waterfall) are lovely, and I guess that one could hide the slot-in connectors if one wanted to stand it without the bases.  It looks from the photo as if one can also stand the rocks without using the wooden cabin piece - am I correct?

I like all the pirates - especially Greybeard, of course - but the others too.  I like fussy/printed clothing om pirates.  :)

And, even as an adult, I'd just have to sail the rowing boat back and forth (and back and forth) underneath the overhanging rocks.....

Oh I love the rocks and waterfall... I thought that this set would be useful, turns out now I KNOW it will be useful.  Thanks for confirming that I need to work a bunch of overtime in the coming year!
I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

That is a great idea!

There aren't even that many slot-in connectors to hide. The rocks work without the cabin and even without the waterfall part. They're going to be very useful in most themes.

Thank you for the review! It is a great set and I am tempted to get it but my cupboards just tell me "No!" -Playmobil rock landscapes are just too bulky.  Hope to snap up Greybeard one day, though. Thanks again.

The mountain appears to be crying, that's quite disturbing.

Great review of a great set though, thanks. I love that rusty halberd weapon the pirate is holding.

Love it! Thanks for the review. I must have this waterfall set for a zoo exhibit. As for the clips on the sides of the rocks, you can always position smaller rocks or a bush in front of them.

seems like a nice set, but why is the waterfall so dark?
