. I think the guy in the boat is about to get seriously swamped when that whale finishes it's belly-flop.

 :lol: :lol: I think that guy in the canoe is trying to get away from the moose . There must have not been much protection in the convertible SUV

   And thank you core for the pictures of the other sets. This does not look like enough for their regular stock so I wonder how much more we will be seeing .

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:

But, he'll have some seriously awsome video to post on YouTube (if his camera doesn't get too wet!)

I really like the mermaid set with the cute seahorses.  I wonder if my Target will be getting these sets or if I'll have to go to the really-far-away Target to get them.

Yes if only he was looking in the right direction  ;)

Hi boaters  :elf:

I guess nobody at Geobra know how to paddle a canoe . You do not paddle it like a row boat.  ::) I know this is just a simple technicality but I read how much all the medieval, Raman & Egyptian fans like to point out the errors so once in a while the modern themes have similar errors  ;)

The 5888 knight and 5884 mermaid big blister packs along with the 5897 orca and rowboat were the only Playmobil sets to be seen on the shelves at the one Target store I have been in since Christmas - I actually had the orca set and 2 each of the blisters in my shopping cart but, ultimately, I put them back as I really don't need them  :'(.  If the moose set had been there, I would have been powerless to resist and would probably have brought all of them home.   ::)

Ras, you are so right about paddling the canoe - bendable elbows and socket joint shoulders would be needed for klickies to accomplish this correctly!   8}

Especially as the canoe in the picture has no rowlocks, it'd be impossible to move it the way the klicky is shown holding those paddles.

Really nice set  and like especially the many weapons and tke klickie with the shoulder fur, looks very mean .. now when are we gonna get these loveky sets over here also ???  ??? ??? ???

Very likely never. In a couple of years looking out for blister packs in the UK, I could count on my fingers the number that ever appeared on the shelves.  ::)

Hi Idianna  :elf:

None of us really "Need" any of these toys, we just "want them" and "have to have them"  :lol:

The designer's there used to know how to show it more accurately

Went by target this morning on my way to work and surprisingly  ;D they had the same sets as Martin reported. They did have 3 of the shield set on the top shelf of the 30% clearance aisle so I picked one up. I also got all but the moose set. From the shelf tags it looks like that's it for new stuff this round. The rest of the tags are continuations of things they already had on the shelves.
I will post a review of the seahorses set soonish.

My local Target does not have this new set.  I'll be on the lookout for it.  I like it! 

Thanks for the tip.
CARPE KLICKY!
