I LOVE that the bedrolls are cloth. I remember as a kid, it drove me crazy that the bedrolls on the cavalry were just plastic and not functioning, as it limited play possibilities. I always thought it was inconsistent with playmobil's usual versatility. So I think this vastly improves the play value of the sets!

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

they do have the cloth sleeping bag from the adventure theme also

I always liked the cloth touch for the clothes line w/clips in the victtorian 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:

I'm not a big fan of these new bedrolls.  Yes, they're functional, but they don't look very good, in my opinion.  The older plastic bedrolls weren't functional, but they looked really good.  One could just take some cloth if one wanted to create a bedroll for the klicky to sleep on and under.

I'm looking forward most to the new corporal arms and I too wish Playmobil had picked some shade of brown for the tack on the limber.  Also the new binoculars in that set look blue! :hissyfit:

Also, the wagon and barrels appear to be stamped 1848, not 1886, so there may be some hope for some new Confederate soldiers, although I'm satisfied with the current ones.

Thats a relief   ;D the first pictures I saw from the new western line had a big 1886 behind the signature cowboy... so i just assumed... though I wish they wouldn't put any dates on things like those treasure chests with 1628 or whatever molded into the locks.... yuck...

I also noticed that the confederate add-on is back up on the playmo USA site... it was gone for a while.

I had not noticed they were gone, I guess its time to stock up as our army seems small  :P
