Dont know if this is the right place to post this but was in my local tesco store today and noticed they had these 2 vehicles in

Wow, great prices!






Normally this would go in Shopping & Auctions, but since you can't see that board yet, I'll leave it here until you have enough posts to see it.

No idea what Tesco is    but I suppose those are pounds? right?

So they are making their way to Europe?

No idea what Tesco is 

Tesco is the number 1 supermarket in UK (on market share), so yes the prices are GB pounds.

Thanks for this info - most interesting

Why on earth have they come here?

We don't want that **** here

I won't be buying any, not even at that price

I just hope these sets don't put off potential new Playmobil customers due to the quality difference

These sets aren't bad at all, Damo! They're nothing like the junky little chinese firetruck. We have both of them, more than one ambulance, actually, plus the school bus, and the quality is quite the same as other playmobil. The only noticable difference is that they come screwed together, similar to how some boats screw together, rather than snapping together. But they have actual rubber tires, and the quality is fine.

Wonder if the schoolbus will appear too.. I like their brute fronts.

But they are of American design Not much good here, unless you are a child aged between 4-10 and couldn't care less which continent the stylings are from

If they wern't made in China, then they would be for me, but sadly I am not won over

Yes, well we americans have been playing with and collecting european styled pm vehicles for the the last three decades, and can still manage to tell a garbage truck from a school bus.
