If you use the Google Chrome web browser, it will translate German to English for you.  I don't know about finding which sellers offer international shipping, but Amazon.de themselves do.  Just like on the US site, it says who is selling it, so I just stuck to Amazon and didn't bother with anyone else.  Additionally, most of the Amazon.de items have the "prime" logo on the thumbnail when browsing, so that made it even easier.  Then, in the checkout process, you can use your US account, which will already have your address and credit card info (if you opted to have them remember it), so it's just a matter of clicking through the steps....  It wasn't too hard at all.   ;D

Good to know, thanks for the heads up!

The new police and armored sets have great potential.
The sea rescue collection really reminds me of the great fun I had with the Adventure People sets in the early 80's.

Thanks for the link to the prices Playmo-80. So many great sets in there that we will be getting for our collection. For us the fair sets are at the top of the list. All those sets will be added to our circus/zoo diorama.

The only question that pops up for me after seeing these individual pictures is why does Geobra insist on using the brown colored plastic on the wrong things. Brown needs to be in the medieval sets so we can make civilians and such or for building parts, not a brown custom motorcycle, who the hell has ever seen a dirt brown bike? 
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 dont understand why they are coming out with so much new rescue stuff and discontinued the hospital. I wonder if they are going to make a new one?

I hope so. That's been a successful and long-running theme. It's great for any kid who is going through a sickness, or has a family member or friend who is hospitalized, to help them work through it.

That's it? Well, that is going to set me back a whole $10.  Better start saving my pennies now.

I thought it was an awesome set, but the hospital got discontinued right as my son is getting into the playmobil stuff.. and now it seems everything else is too! :/ He really seems to enjoy all the City stuff, police, fire, ambulance, etc. Now the hospital is going for 300-500 on Ebay :/ Not paying that much LOL
