Your favorite box design...

[BlackPearl2006]

this BEAUTIFUL dio came at the back of the 3793 box I bought today 

I love how the feature item is in focus while the other items in the background are not....gives it a sense of realism and depth.  well composed.  I collect as many pirate pics as possible.  One of my sets even came with a purely aesthetic picture story pamphlet which seemed to be designed to give a kid an idea of how to play with the pirate set....  kinda wierd concept, but I treasure the playmobil pre-packaged photo story

I need to scan it soon

The old diorama's where definatly beautifull, but I can see why they changed it, so that its more informative about the content.

Some sets do seem to have far more or far less in them than you might expect.
A good compromise would be to put a nice diorama on the back of the manual, to get the best of both worlds. Good info before you buy the set, and something nice to look at once you aquired it. Aside from the playmobil in the box of course.

it's not only the diorama that made old boxes special ,they were much more aesthetic and intresting.... the 90's box type that had index on the back instead of the dioramas was nice also nothing compared like the current ugly boxes....anyways most new sets are for the garbage themselves so that's the type of boxes they deserve i believe    they need to change EVERYTHING !!!!

they need to change EVERYTHING !!!! 

yeah, put Giorginetto as CEO    of playmobil and apart from a huge gap in inventory and some old moulds being used again ( care to guess whicg medieval klikcy   ) a lot of these new sets will be totally scrpaped and a return to Hans Beck's ideals and philoshophy will be employed with a focus on new redesign of steck, educational sets, a better and larger mix of high tech /IT and playmobil sets and a focus on quality and global marketing
