New TRU sets 5892, 5893, 5889

[Martin Milner]

There's a large green seahorse in Blister 5882 and a yellow one in 5883, so that makes 4 seahorses.

I got 2x 5882 because I wanted two helmeted guards for my Mer-King.

sorry, it has all 5 of the harnesses that fit the large seahorse, but only 2 large seahorses. There is one other large seahorse in the blister pack. The question is - will there be 2 more sets with the other large seahorses?

Hi Tim

Thanks for the clarification. It was the box image that confused me as it said the set came with X3 harness's  I wonder if it is included in the "31 pc" count ?

Thanks again but rest-a-sure it is not how you explained it but rather how I read it

Here they all are:
PlaymoDB List - Latest from TRU USA

Now, to suss out some existing parts to add in.  (I assume no blisters have instructions? How about the carry-cases?) The missing seahorse is the magenta one that came with the Witch, so I bet there's one more blister to find.

Hah, I just spent 20 minutes trying to figure out the same thing and you beat me to it.

I'd like a Mer-Witch blister, she is a very interesting figure and has possibly the greatest story potential (villains are always more interesting!), but we may have reached our quota.

I wasn't going to bother getting the 5884 double blister but now I will, we have quite a community going.

No instructions in the blister packs as usual, but the 5892 pink carry case has instructions, which I will scan for you when I can get to my scanner.

We're in chaos here today as we can't find the nuts and bolts to put our bedframe together! Might have to trip over to Lowe's or Jerry's later and see what they can offer.

Thanks, that's good to know.  When I can put "Instructions Do Not Exist" on a set, it doesn't clutter up my "Instructions Wanted" list.

No rush, my heavens, take care of your real life first! It will start to feel more like home once you're surrounded by your stuff.

. . . The missing seahorse is the magenta one that came with the Witch, so I bet there's one more blister to find.

OK, so I cannot resist a challenge like that and I am officially lusting after all these seahorses even though I previously referred to them as "Barbie-esque" or some such epithet.   

Heather, I noticed a funny thing in your link:  under the heading of "Other parts with description containing 'Seahorse,'" there are 5 different part numbers (30 29 7110, 7120, 7130, 7140, and 7150) each with the same photo (of all five baby seahorses.)  What is Playmobil doing with all these different numbers for the same thing?  Do the five numbers possibly represent the five colors?

Actually we ARE surrounded by our stuff, since 3pm yesterday. The problem is it's all still in boxes and we now have about half the floorspace we used to have in our rental apartment, due to a slight technical error. The only furniture we shipped from London were a pair of bunk beds and one high bed, as we'd bought them new not long ago, and figured we could sleep on two of these for a couple more months until we can move into our new house proper, then put them in the spare bedrooms.

The technical glitch is that we packed all the nuts and bolts somewhere very safe... so safe we can't find them.    We're going through every box and bag looking for them today, and if we really have lost them then hopefully Lowe's or Jerry's will have the necessary nuts and bolts. If we can assemble two beds then we'll have more floorspace again, and I will be able to get to the scanner.

Great your stuff finally got here Martin.

Anne - yes the seahorses seem to each have their own number, but we don't know which goes to which color.

Thank you Ras, Tim, Heather and Martin for helping us to clearly see what else "we can't live without" ... 

All the best to all of you,
Richard
