4965 karstadt special pirate in u.s.
« on: April 03, 2008, 01:58:56 »
i just found out that an old karstadt exclusive german set - the 4965 roter pirat - is now available in the american playmobil site.  ???
you can see it here - http://store.playmobilusa.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-US-Site/en_US/Product-Show?pid=4965&cgid=Piraten
it was launched in europe in 2004 with 2 other sets - the 4964 corsair (with dog) and the 4966 piratenbraut (with cat).
i think this is the first time an exclusive european set is relaunched in the us as a common set. :hmm:
i find it strange that they chose the 4965 - the color scheme is better in the 4964  set and the 4966 is a beautiful "piratesse".
  :love:

You're very welcome, Cachalote ... :)

I too enjoyed the little trip down memory lane when I went looking for those old posts .. ;)

It's also very interesting how many people have come ... and gone, over the past few years.

All the best,
Richard

I'm still here, sort of :)

I haven't had as much time recently to post or go anywhere to take any pictures, but with summer fast approaching I'm sure my klickys will have some more adventures soon. :yup:
