new kaufhof exclusive sets - ADAC
« on: June 18, 2010, 21:04:41 »
the german mega-department store chain kaufhof - www.galeria-kaufhof.de - has a new line of playmobil exclusives.
they were launched this month and the three sets are from the ADAC family (a german kind-of musculated automobile club).
- 4077 ADAC stauberater
- 5011 ADAC Mega-Set
- 5017 ADAC Rettungshubschrauber
you can see the 3 of them in http://www.galeria-kaufhof.de/sales/aktionen/search/searchresults.aspx?FLEXID=0&outid=0

The 4077 is a reissue; here's a link to my review:

In the megaset, the recovery truck and the people carrier are also reissues.  The recovery truck is superb:

However, the original sets were on sale through Vedes.

The helicopter and plane are originals, although a German fan customised an ADAC helicopter  in 2007:

But see this reply from Customizer, again in 2007:

Hi,

yes this was the best custom (i saw) based on the new Heli !
But i can say Playmobil bring a ADAC Heli out near Future !
Number 4092 exclusive item for a toyshop i think VEDES !

greetings

Andi

So I may try and get hold of the helicopter.

Hi

Thanks for the news Cachalote. I have always wanted the roll-off tow truck and it seems to always be some exclusive in a different country. Maybe someday it will make its way over the pond. That mega set looks large and not worth shipping it.

They're already reduced in price!

Do you know if Kaufhof ships to the UK? as I asked last year when they had the THW sets and they said no, not yet :(

I asked the same and got the same answer and I was wondering about asking again.
