a new u.s. blister pirate
« on: March 26, 2008, 15:19:18 »
 :o i just found on ebay that a new pirate set was released on the u.s..
just as it was in the case of the 4219-pirates-box-carry-case, new sets from the u.s. seem to make their debuts on ebay.  ???

i want to have one, of course, although there's nothing really new on it...

captain henry already found them in an ordinary store:

...but I do agree in the sense that playmobil is not really promoting the blister sets, which is kind of weird, as the sets are really nice and available at a fair price...  :hmm:

btw, the left pirate is my favorite playmo pirate...  :love:

best,
socrates

I love him too! He has a very rakish air about him. ;D

I think he was one of the first bare-armed klickies. His body parts came in very handy for customising. 8-)

 8} ... he is the third twin brother sylvia.

the first one had a short life - he was born in 2000 and died at the age of 2 in 2002. he was named 4581 and he was special.

the second one, 4917 was his name, even had a shorter existence - a few months around the 2006 easter separating his birth from his death.
tragic.

and now we have a new born, the 5819.

a rakish air they may have sylvia, but they tend to die young.
a pirate's life is a very cruel one.  :'(

 ::) ... by the way, his friend seems to have escaped from the bow of the 4424/5736 blackbeard's ship.
 ;) if you are looking for a daring guy who likes to dangle himself at the end of a rope nerverminding a sea infested with sharks, this might be a good choice for you sylvia.
 :love: he has been around since 2004 displaying great survival skills in the playmo-world.

He is even around since 2000 as this klicky has been just as well in the 3938 lagoon set.

Interesting to read the secret histories of these figures; thanks Cachalote and Socrates.

 :o you are right socrates, he is even older (maybe that made him change caps meanwhile). he is now 8.
 ??? could it be that, as it happens with dogs, 1 year in playmo-life equals 6 years in human-life.
 ;) this pirate would be a veteran, being 48 years old...

Hi Cachalote, yeah, don't buy it off ebay.  If you just want only one, send me a PM with your address and I'll mail one out sometime this month.

But, if you want 40, don't look at me!
