Thank you Richard for the video link. I do like these cartoon animations but on this particular one I had a hard time following the story line. Klickies kept showing up form nowhere and not much was explained. Is it a commercial where they have a very limited time constraint to get as much info in as possible? It would be nice to see a full length version where the gaps in the story are included.

It was very informative to see where the hay separates, now I want at least a dozen of that set (just wish it only came with the peasant or even a peasant family) 

Oh and when will Geobra make a stone bridge like the one at the first segment of the story, its very nice looking and if it were stecks we could build big ones  ;)
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:

Btw, I thought Frau Weingart had retired about a year ago?! Am I confusing her with someone else?

Erwin,
Perhaps you were thinking of Gisela Kupiak who retired a couple of years ago?
Attached is a photo of Gisela with Andreas Männer and one of his great cakes!
All the best,
Richard

Ras,
Agree with you about the "story line"!
Had to watch the darn thing several times to even come close to figuring it out ...
The graphics were great! But, for this one, Geobra must have used someone other than Bart de Smet as his story lines have always been very clear and easy to follow.
All the best to you and your family,
Richard

BTW ... After almost fifteen years, Susan and I have made a decision to leave the USVI. Villarisa is up for sale!

Saw this on Facebook yesterday evening it's quite interesting:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzErri_Ex4Y&feature=youtu.be

My thoughts are the new mansion and preschool really bright colours suits the nursery theme, no doubt will appeal to a lot of kids and good to see the new babies hands, I'm not sure on the new curly hair think I need to see some better photos. The Rescue guys and Firemen also look good updated versions not really sure there's anything that excites me to much there though altohugh the brown bearded Rescue guy appears to have one of the newer less often seen hair scuplts and the motorcycle on fire looks good. 

The amusement park looks really good some great rides for some reason the teacup espue ride and the game where you knoc the bottles down stand out to me but, I like the new clown and the snack stall as well plus some good figures

I think my faovurite them though has to be the new Knights theme it looks really awesome I'm sure there's going to be a few sets I want from that the Hawk Knights look good but, wow those Lion Knights what bold design and the combination of red, blue and gold, loving the gold Knight with the blue cloak in particular. Also we've got the Troll  plus a really nice Dragon as much as I like the 1990's one I had with it's comical design and human hads this one to me looks like one of their most realistic ones yet  the new Dwarf costume looks good and a great choice of beard.

Thanks for the link, Tim. A nice close-up of all the new stuff. And it was nice getting to see Judith, she does seem very nice.

Gordon, I think the box-back and 360 views will be put up there eventually. It usually takes a few weeks for the new releases. They already have the box-back images for the first half of 2014 items.

Thanks for the info, BB.  I'll keep checking.

You're right, Richard, thanks!
It is indeed Frau Kupiak who had retired!  :doh:

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!
