Zookeeper helped me to get the WWF okapi one it first came out, so I have that one at least. For the others, I'm not sure I want to spend the extra money or not. Btw, I already bought the panda set at TRU and the bamboo is great. I should do a review of that set, though I already threw away the box I think.

Thanks for the review and the great pics.  So much more included then I thought.

I'm eagerly waiting on mine from amazon.de. 

Bonnie, I really wanted the WWF logo so I ordered from Germany and once they subtract VAT it was actually a little less then retail price on the Playmobil USA site even with shipping.  I was suprised.  I got three of the WWF sets (5272, 5273 & 5274 - they were out of 5275) and 5477 - Goldener Ritter Christopher for US$82.03 including shipping.  List price for those three sets in the US totals $98.97 (25.99+29.99+42.99).

Nice review a shame the rock's all in one piece but, it doens't look bad set up with the flowers and trees plus those vines to swing on. Looks like the Ranger's well equiped with all his equipment and a nice looking jeep.

The tigers also look nice but, my favourites have got to be the orangutans particularly after watching the Orangutan Diaries about a palce in Borneou rescuing and eventually releasing baby Orangutans. I like the shaggy arms on the babies although it'd be good if they had the same amount of movement as the adult.

Thanks, lovely review!

I really like the landrover. I hadn't noticed the microscope and the camping gear before. Maybe the ranger is a vegan or something. Makes sense  ;D

The rock-on-baseplate is a bummer, indeed. I've got one from a fairy set, in different colours. It's difficult to store, because of its odd shape.

Could be right about the Ranger persoanlly I'd like it if he was a Vegan although all my guys are Vegetarians since I've been brought up that way, could be that they just didn't want the Orangutans getting a rather more vaired diet than nature intended  ;) ;D

Thanks for the review of a nice set. I was very happy Geobra forged an agreement with WWF. I think relationships of this nature are way better than doing product licensing.

I love the picture you took of the Orangutans sitting on the truck!

While I'm not thrilled with the rock in the base plate, I do need the set for my zoo (more I need the landscape parts than anything.)

Thanks for the review!
