I for one would be very happy with a kilted Scotsman, a Greek warrior or a "hula" girl. :)

It does look like Geobra is willing to make all kinds of molds for these Fi¿ures series. You could just about pick anything and they will make the mold. If you look at the "lady Ga Ga" one how else are they going to use that piece?

This is not how it used to be with each mold costing hundreds of thousands of euros. Geobra was not willing to make stuff that did not have a long shelf life.

Why not more animal heads like the "bunnies" series.

Or much more elaborate molds for past themes like Egyptian/Roman

I could use the long legs & hammer that came with the "circus" theme

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

That does seem like the case here, and that could be good news insofar as we could acquire some things that would never really make it into a themed set. But at the same time, I hope that the reverse is true and that some of the figures and themes will be revived, like the dwarf, Far East theme, and the like.

I think we don't have to compare playmobil with lego!My ideas for fi?ures 4 are:

Victorian lady with yellow clothes
Victorian man with black costume
Vampire man with two faces
Top agent with two faces
Singer with characteristics of Madonna
Singer like John Lennon
Skater girl with two faces
Mother with baby
Modern woman with mini skirt (such as these of new hotel set)
Modern man with blazer and jeans

Personally, I would like to see the F?gures go the way of the dodo, but I would like a Greek Hoplite and Scottish Bagpiper Special.

One of the very few stores in my city which sells the figures, has now closed down too... It wasn't a small store, so I'm not sure why it closed...  :'(

That might just be the case.
I heard a "rumor" about sales (at least in my country); it seems collectors are jumping for these wonderful figures, but kids (and their parents with the wallets) aren't that much exicted about the surprise f?gures, probably due to the fact they don't know what they're buying.
So that may explain why so few stores sell them here, and if they do, it is in a not very noticed spot...
