We haven't seen the second half of 2014 yet. The latest thing we have is the 2014 catalogue for December - July. The email informing us these things were no longer confidential had a hyperlink to what they were referring to, which included pics of the carnival, new coast guard theme, and new animal clinic.
oh, Must not be on that email list and the confidential was only removed on the other catalog download. The one with those new sets still says confidential at the pcc
The 5477 golden knight, I want to get a few of him and hope they put him in either the special pcc shop or ?
I am not too sure about the other 40th anniversary sets? A kids playhouse on fire w/kid putting out the fire is odd. The knight one will be nice as it has the kid and we always need more medieval kids
The 4784 rock stars guitar looks interesting, all we need now is the base guitar and we will have a proper rock group
The coast guard sets look nice but just a tad small. The only thing missing is how the people got onboard of the 5455 life pod. Perhaps a nice big cruise ship is in order. I find the widow of the 5543 car interesting, is the whole car new or a recycled one?
Now the carnival sets are a great addition to playmobil and so many people have been waiting for something like this. We will get them all and as Tim said, the motor addition will be so great at train shows. Having all those things twirling around will look great. The one that I think "hit the nail on the head" in regards to coloring is the ride on train. I like all the other ones but the pastel colors and rave glitter bling are a turn off to me. The 5466 clown w/balloons is a must at least 12 times. We will add all these to our circus diorama and I am sure it will look great together. The boys will have fun with all the new action.
The bagged sets look great. I want all the knights, even the fantasy red one. The only thing missing is the hood for the horses. It looks odd that they do not have a hood that matches. The 5354 ice girl is cool. I must get lots of that tree. It is perfect for winter scenes, like a santa house.
The new gold transport to me is not the best of playmobil. It was a nice attempt to make a armored car but it just looks too unarmed. In the US armored cars look like mini tanks of vehicles, not converted delivery vans. The swat truck looks like fun but I still think this needs to be a red airport fire truck w/foam. If it had clear windows instead of blue it would look less fantasy-ish
Figures 7 look so recycled. The clown and most of the others look like older klickes and their prints in new configurations. I do want the Nun looking girl many times. It is so frustrating not being able to get enough of the ones I want duplicates of. Something really special the pcc could do is let collectors buy them identified .
would a gangster in a suit w/machine gun be considered "a violent toy"?
