US knight info booklet
« on: December 05, 2011, 22:15:04 »
We were at the toy shop celebrating a successful yard sale and we found an interesting pamphlet. It might not seem great news to European collectors but in the US this is actually rare. It was a little booklet that was called "About the Knights" It had info about the knights, castles, weapons, battles, and why's.

Seems like a neat idea Geobra could do with every theme? 
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

I recall they had something like that for the egyptian theme. It's a really good idea, and really promotes the educational aspect of the toys.

That sounds interesting  :picsplz:! I think in Germany they have something similar called Adventure Books. They've done them for Dragonland and Top Agents  :).

Very simple, 15 pages and effective. I would prefer a little more action but it was suitable for tiny kidos

You see you collectors in Europe get all kinds of neat extras. We in the US barely get any books, stickers, custom big Klickies, clothes, party favors, the list goes on and on  :hissyfit:

This stupid well made book is what we get  :wall:

I know, it drives me nuts we don't get T-shirts, umbrellas, lunch boxes. :'( Don't they realize kids in the US who love playmobil would love to get their hands on these, and when other kids saw them, it would be advertising?

I got that from some xmas sets purchases at playmobilusa from a month ago.
I didn't think it was somehting rare.

bb it was with the stuff you sent me... inside the carrying case.  :eh?:

I know, they have all kinds of goodies in the boxes these days! I believe the egyptian one I got came in a box like that, too.

Gaston, I probably put it in the carrying case to keep it from getting bent. I don't really remember.
