Thanks for the pictures . There sure is some great new tools .

What is the one thing that looks like a hose real in the picture with the new colored chem suit klicke ( on his upper right )  ? why does it look like a hand cart for hose reals ?

It's common practice the  Continent to have a "soft" low pressure hose reel mounted on the rear of a fire engine.  This can be detached and pulled along on the wheeled frame to connect to a nearby hydrant.  I'll do a search on the web for some photos tomorrow and post them.

Here's a photo of a French fire engine showing the hose reel arrangement.

Very interesting . We definitely do not have those type of carts around these parts . Thanks for the further pics and info  :wow:
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:

With the newly posted pictures showing close up views of the products, it is very evident that Playmobil is favoring a fresh introduction of European designed equipment which has many interesting concepts! I definitely like the variety :yup:!
  Forget about all of the other stuff,....all we need is the reintroduction of the 3526 Fire Engine!

Uh, what did I discovered here: there is a "Playmobil" imprint on the fireman's back ...  :hmm:
That makes it really difficult to customize the "FEUERWEHR" imprint on the uniform's back as it is with real firemen in Germany.

I really don't like this. What do you think?

I had noticed there was printing on the back but hadn't been able to read it.  I had assumed it might be Feuerwehr, but thought that if it was it was maybe a sticker, with different ones for different countries.  Maybe the Playmobil print is just for the toy fair and they are planning something different for the mass-produced sets.  If not, then, like you, I don't like it.

Thanks Jochen for pointing this detail out. I checked the views of the headquarter and the result can be seen underneath :(

I notice that there are new swivel chairs in the fire station to go with the control desk.  (I haven't yet worked out how to save 3D images, so I can't show them.) And there is a belt which seems to go either with the breathing apparatus sets or under them.

I hope you are right Gordon about that Print . It looks out of place . If it is going to be on them i at least hope it is easy to remove while retaining the orange .
