I think is this:

Maybe they have some stock problem, and decide not to go to TV, this set is limited 5 per customer.

Giggle... and if that's it, and you want more, Target USA will let you buy 20,000.

Excellent detective work, Cachalote !!!

Maybe Zirndorf knows how much you like Playmobil's Pirate Theme, so they decided not to make you wait until mid-May ...  :klickywink:

Well I don't like the skull island (too Fisher Price) but the small sailing boat is FANTASTIC and I hope it sails to our shores eventually. I have one, but I'd like another.

Actually, now that I see the sets, I see why PM was trying to keep it a secret.

Maybe we should cut PM some slack--

They wanted to keep the sets a secret and now we know why.

Maybe this is about respecting PM's personal space.

"Honestly, guys, we're kind of embarrassed and would prefer not to shout it to the whole world.  Ergo: May's secret."

Hello, Timmy ...

I agree with Martin ...



... the small sailing boat is FANTASTIC and I hope it sails to our shores eventually.

And, Timmy ... if someone were into Games Workshop's Warhammer using Playmobil Klickys instead of 25mm Citadel figures, the "Skull" might just work fine with the Undead (from the Vampire Counts) with Playmobil skeletons.
(Somewhat similar to Count Bogro's "Band of Skeletons")
