NEW ADAC THEME AND St. Martin !

I hadn't noticed the motorcyclist before.  Do Vedes do mail order to the UK?  Or is anyone on the board near a Vedes store?

(I came across the ADAC car on Ebay.nl btw.)

i am a bit astonished with this st. martin release.
i have a very poor knowledge of all playmobil sets but, apart from the christmas sets, it's the first time i see this kind of religious "liaison".
i find it difficult to believe that this is a true set - going so much out of the "neutral" nativity sets with such a specific religious story.
if this indeed a true set, i think i am not liking the way the roman theme is developing.

Well, we've had the nun special recently and that was pretty cool.

And don't forget Noah's Ark! Another cool set.

... and there are two variants of monks ...

monks and nuns and noah's ark, you are rigth, but st. martin is still too specific, in my view.
if you can picture a playmobil saint sebastian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Sebastian) you will understand my doubts, i'm sure.

I don't think there is any question of Playmobil producing a whole range of saints.  St Martin fits in to the Roman theme and no doubt there is a good reason for Playmobil to produce him which we will find out in the future.
