Hello everybody.
Searching on Google about playmobil, I found a very interesting Greek site.
This site has an amazing archive with all the playmobil sets and playmobil from all over the world with great pictures of the sets and of course pictures of old catalogues.
Here are the links:

Looking at these links I found some sets with the name "Playmobil System".
I learned that these sets are very rare and you can find them to the collector's book.
I don't have that book and so, I saw them for first time.
Here are some pictures of these wonderful sets for all of you who don't have the collector's book:

There are more sets that you can see if you look at the links I gave. ;)
Friendly George. :)

Thanks for sharing, we too like looking at the old box art as it was not computer generated. They look more like the toy would in real life play in the outdoors, well at least the western ones do.

Great link George - thank you :) Have to admit, I LOVE browsing through pictures of old sets and seeing if there are any I haven't seen before. And yep, some of the old box art and older leaflets seem to have that certain something appeal-wise! I don't have any Lyra (spent a while browsing your second link there! lol), but a few Antex have made their way across to me (OK. OK. wrong country I know!) I'm always on the lookout for more Playpeople too (the Marx UK license) but it's increasingly hard to find those boxed.
