Hey, so is the new pony ranch stuff! I guess if it's at TRU, then why not?

I've seen most of the Western stuff at TRU last week. Not the fort, but most of the other sets. Neat. And they were on sale.  It seems the prices at TRU and at the US Playmobil site are about the same.  Now we just have to wait for the sales. My guess is we'll get a better price at the MPB site particularly when they include free shiping. YEEEEHAAAAA

Saw the new Native American village at TRU, sweet but a little spendy.  Then I came home and the whole wave is available on the website.  Nice!  I hope they send out a 20% coupon again soon or TRU has a sale.

That's really unexpected, it's a major change of strategy for them.

it seems to be, maybe more themes will be released sooner. I just hope it is not an indicator that the sets are selling so slowly in Europe that geobra was able to take half of the inventory and ship it abroad

I doubt it, I think it would be too soon to know. Didn't the western stuff just become available in August?

So far I have bought three sets. I noticed that all three were made in separate countries so that's how they made it here so quick I suppose. The wagon set5248 was made in Czech republic. Set 5250 bandit hideout was made in Malta. Set 5249 union artillery set was made in Germany.

interesting, If each country makes one or two sets then they can make a lot more of each in the same amount of time that one factory could have made all the sets. All they have to do is ship them all around.
