new sets for 2008 - april / july

[cachalote]

daniel from klickywelt  discovered this new sets in a catalogue for 2008.
the images are not that great (no visible serial numbers).
there seems to be also 2 new "susprise" sets with no images .
apparently, these will be out in april / july 2008.
 :'(no pirates, unfortunately... (only a little musqueteer)

[cachalote]

 maybe the biggest newcomer is this undewater set.
the manta-ray should be great.
the sperm-whale (english name for portuguese "cachalote") leaves me with happiness tears in my eyes...

Thanks, Cachalote ...

That exploration trawler looks pretty cool too!

Playmobil just keeps producing some really incredible toys.

All the new fish and animals should make Tim (Tiermann) very happy!

Thanks again and all the best,
Richard

Thanks cachalote.  I see there's a fireman amongst the Specials so maybe that means there will also be other fire sets in 2008.

The warrior with the bison headdress looks better than PM's usual fantasy barbarians.
The new open Santa sack is interesting
I like the fairy's red turban hat.

The musketeer is not bad.  But, cough cough, somebody tell PM those guys were called musketeers because they carried muskets....

Where do klickywelt forum members find these un-released catalogs?

EDIT: Oh, I have to get that whale!  I wonder if it can swallow klickies?

I think that barbarian is sopposed to be a germanic chieftain....*prays to odin for a germanic theme to kick the romans cute rear ends*

Hello, Hoppatussa ...

You forgot the most important picture of the group.  I LOVE the church!!!

If this is the church that you mentioned ... I agree. It's beautiful!
(Too bad that it's not compatible with the pavillion) ...
please see attachment

Wow, the veil of the bride looks beautiful. And finally we get a priest (so I can delete him from my customizing list  )
Pretty cool.
The church is really perfect: not to old styled and not to modern, right perfect for my personal taste. Great job Playmobil!

Have to check out the German sites if there are some further new announcements ...

Oh, and just the article lead my attention to the pavillion in the pic above: there is a white grand piano!

Huh, for some reason my picture didn't work.. thanks for posting it Richard!    Nice eye for spotting the piano Little Jo... can't wait to see better pictures of the sets.
