Boxed sets in your collection???

[Wolf Knight]

Totally with you there Giorginetto!!! A huge lot of Nuremberg guards would be fantastic!!!
Lucky you have a friend to give you his old playmobil... Noone gave me theirs no matter how hard i begged for it...not even my cousins... mostly because they do not want to get in the process of start looking for it in attics or basements....

I have never come across one the 8 years or so i buy stuff on ebay. Actually one of my best friends ( who gave me all his klickies ) had one of these sets, bought it in 1980 or so  and i remember us playing with it , shame his brother destroyed the wagon etc and only some of the soldiers and horses and stuff were absorbed into my collection. One think for sure if Playmobil made such old klickies as the Nuremberg guards ( they have the Nuremberg emblem) they would sell thousands through their spares catalogues - i would buy  at least 400-500 of these awesome klickies , someone tell Geobra to make them again !!!!

 
witch is that Nuremberg  guard???

[playmo1989]

yes i understand witch they were    they weren't a lot of them only the set you showed above one more single clicky box and this exclusive set they were more? i like the silver parts of that they used in the 70's and 80's do you know why they stopped using this matterial??   was it expensive?

[Wolf Knight]

I have no idea why they stoped producing them.... They were briliant at that time....And these knights were in all the medieval sets and castles apart from the civilian set klickies!!!

[playmo1989]

they are at the sets i mentioned above and in some framework houses and the castle the original and the exclusive set castle

I love those old klickies!
Unfourtunatly I have none, but my cousins who were collecting long before I was even born have several, and lots of shiney armor!
I see them once every 2 years or so, so I don't get to play with all of their klickies very often...
But when I do I am amazed at the stuff they have!
They have lots of civilians and farming tools and stuff.
They have many old (and what we may consider rare items) that they do not even know about!

The 3176 has been in ebay twice last year, just a few months ago a used one sold with a 'buy it now' option. Exclusive sets were either made for specific export countries like France, Italy and Belgium or they were sold to a particular department store like Karstadt Quelle or Kaufhof. Speaking of boxed items my collection consists for 95 % of mint in box sets, here is a little 'preview'
