Pirates' exclusive 5618 is available on Playmobil-USA.
http://www.playmobil.us/on/demandware.store/Sites-US-Site/en_US/Product-Show?pid=5618The colors of this type or ship are imho a lot better then the red-white version of a few years ago.
Too bad they "forgot" to include a decent topmast and decided to put an ordinary cavalry/towerroof-flagpole on the mast instead.
The captain's torso is a new version of a widely available torso, with the difference that the printed sash is green instead of red. The trousers with this print are new as well.
The pirate with blue-printed shirt is very similar to one from the 5135 ship from the main cataloque, though the one from 5135 comes without the printed black belt and golden medal.
The third (black-red) pirate, he is a composition (@ Tierman: Tim, try saying 10 times "caparison comparison composition"
) of existing parts.
PS:
Would a friendly American be willing to order this set for me, and ship it across the Atlantic to my West-European harbour? Of course I'd pay for all expenses (with lootage from raids on the Spanish Silverfleet).
I don't want to count on the PCC to maybe offer the set later on (in limited quantities
) and I'd rather avoid paying high prices for it on evilbay...
