from TRU

"Product Description
In celebration of FAO's 150th Anniversary, Playmobil has brought back this collectible Victorian City Life edition from its archive. This 342 piece set includes a victorian house complete with furnishings and a horse and buggy."

I wonder what furniture it has ?

it also said it was ready to ship on 8/15/2012

I was hoping to get on the "buy one get 2nd 50% off" sale and free shipping they have right now

I bet the 342 pieces counts each individual flower, each hand cuff, each hat, each plant stem....  For $129 I'd be expecting something bigger than what they have pictured, unless the photographer somehow was only taking a pic of the house from a side view instead of a frontal or back view?  I know if you add up the coach, the people, and all the stuff seperately it could easily amount to $129.  But just from the pic, no matter what, it just seems so meager.  I hope there is more to it than that, but I doubt it.   Honestly, I can score more online if I'm diligent, than my $129 would buy in this set.  But of course scanning auctions and garage sales takes a lot of time.

Hopefully the release of this set does mean expansion sets and spares available at least.
Ahoy, Pirates, Hoist the Colours!
