The traffic flag said police on it and if you are directing traffic a bull horn comes in handy leaving nothing but gloves for  the fireman .
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:

Boy, you're right! That is a pretty poor deal for the fireman, unless he uses the bullhorn to tell people to pay attention to the policeman!

Wow, they even have authentic viking helmets! :D :D

Ha, you're joking, right, Gepetto? 

Well, it is definitely better than getting more of that "bear-head" barbutte helmet.

(vikings [ie. Danes, Norse, and Swedes apparently didn't wear horns on their helms, but the conical helmet with the noseguard (minus the horns) is not bad for the times)

My disappointment is that the purple-and-white striped shirt Viking is so blasted common already... I'd like one of the guys with the red or yellow hood or that fur-vested guy (even though he's pretty common, too).

To Ras:
Yeah, good for your wife to ask questions about that phony of a ninja!  He's a Chinese tea-shop owner!

The Viking blister pack is an easy, inexpensive way to supplement your Viking/Barbarian/Medieval army, but I wish Playmobil had used the klickies from Specials 4519 and 4540 instead, as they are hard to come by, especially the former.

Yes Tim I was joking, but you are right in that they are better than those cursed "bear-heads" or the ones with the bull horns. I can live with the purple pants in that they are  good filler figures and have a decent amount of bits for the buck.

Thanks Rasputin for alerting us that Target has the new blister packs.  Orlando has them and I have bought mine!  Some of everything.  I liked the comment about the tea shop owner, good idea :lol:.

Hi Justin, you're right, those figures do look good.  And, I don't have either of them.

Hi Janice, yeah, a tea shop owner might even wear black to give his shop more atmosphere.  The stick he has may be to chase cats away from the side alley.

The vikings look good to me (besides the horn problem, that has been noticed, and will, whenever it comes up ... At least by the more criterious guys, like me 8} ).

I hope to get them. Blisters have been reaching Brasil. I've got that Roman, with a gladiator. As well as those pirates Martin sent me, that I converted into my character Hugo! :) I've seen them around. Actually, I got one of them, as a Christmas gift, from a work mate, of my last job ... (I just changed jobs, from December to January ...)

And there's a policeman & thief blister walking around, as well, which I didn't put hands on, 'cause I'm more in historical playmo' ... ;D

Nice to see those vikings! I'll pay attention at the stores.

Thanks for sharing the pics, Raz.

I don't either, which is why I wanted a blister pack with them!  :lol:

Well, my local Target just got in some of the 5849 - Mandarin and the 5850 - Knight blisters! But now they are out, and so it begins. ;)
