favorite pirate ship
« on: July 01, 2011, 22:49:30 »
First post by this new member!   ;D

My 3 year old son really wants a pirate ship.  So between now and Christmas, I need to figure out which Playmobil pirate ship to get him.

After reading the thread about the various pirate ships Playmobil has made (http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=4639.15), I'd like to put this question to readers:

Which is your favorite Playmobil pirate ship, past or present?  And why?

Thanks, 

-- Kenny

probably the one it's easier for you to get!!!!!  :)  the old ones are hard to find new and expensive , if you find a used one from ebay you can buy , the new one would be good but it's only available in germany (i'am not sure if it is right now even there available....) http://www.playmobil.de/on/demandware.store/Sites-DE-Site/de_DE/Product-Show?pid=5135&cgid=Piraten

Well, I can't help much with this question, because I don't have ant ships yet, but Im sure you'll get lots of answers, as we have plenty of members here who could write books on the subject, I'm sure!

While you're waiting though, Kenny, please start a thread in the Welcome section introducing yourself and telling us a bit about your love of playmo, and that way we can all give you a proper playmofriends welcome! :)

My favourite one:
The discontinued 3940 (US 3286) Flagship without a doubt, and probably also it's new variant 5135 to be released soon in Germany & BeNeLux.

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

Ditto. 3940 is the ultimate Playmo ship.

Well, 3940 has definitely got the look, but you can't really make it float since it capsizes too easily ; and it's a real pity when you got one and a pool.  :'(

As for me, I like the sloop series (there's many of them : white 3740 - my favourite - grey 3860, brown 3174, and so on...). They're really cute, big enough for a kid to play well, and... float nicely. And you still can find many versions of this sloop, new or used, on internet for not too much money.
