Forgive me if this has been mentioned before, I did a search and couldn't find it.


The six sets in the coming Drachenland theme are now viewable in more detail on Playmobil.de with 360 views of the:

4835 Big Dragon Castle and

4836 Dragon Tower.

4837 Riesenschleuder mit Gefangenenzelle translates on Babelfish as Giant centrifuge with prisoner cell.  :lol:

4838 is the big black dragon with a rider, and appears to have an LED

4840 is a catapult with two figures, the bodies appearing to be recycled Elves-in-Underpants and

4841 is a single knight on horseback, with the dreaded bazooka, and what appears to be a lollipop stick in the other hand. Maybe it's a space dagger.

Having a closer look at the three biggest sets, I'll be avoiding the full sets but looking to get some of the figures. The castle and tower will take up a huge amount of storage, being large chunks of plastic, and the red dragon (OK, wyvern) in 4835 is the chicken dragon we have already seen.

I will be getting the 4838 and 4841 sets, probably several of the latter.

I saw it a few days ago, i like it, even when they are  so ugly  :lol:, some ortodox collectors didn't like the theme, but i find the accesories very compatible... like the dark nigth with armored horse, or the monk, the hoods, etc.

as you said, look for the accesories but avoid the big chunks of platic!!!

lets wait and see...

I agree with you completely, AMD ...
and even then ... the chunks of plastic might be better in real life (doubt it though  :()

We'll just have to wait and see ...

Yes, we will just have to wait until better pics show up when someone does a review.  I would like to like them but so far they haven't got me excited (though I am planning to get the smaller tower and a few other sets when they finally make it here - so I must like them a bit!)

 :lol: I think "Schleuder" is here meant like the small weapon David used against Goliath: a sling, which also could -- as for sure you all already guessed right -- be named as a catapult  ;D

For some reason, I like this description better:

Yes, especially if you imagine a large centrifuge which includes a prisoner cell (or maybe is the prisoner cell)
