new sets, where and when ?
« on: February 26, 2010, 16:34:11 »
Hello

I was trying to keep tabs on some of the sets I remembered were mentioned and now I have lost track of them. I recall some people make fake looking blister packs and do not recall if it was one or a real one but it was a 5799 Union and Confederate set?

The other one was mention of a subway in 2011? is it true or a joke again. There is a lot of jokers on KW and rumors start buzzing like flies on a carcass  ::)

Does anybody have any facts?

Don't know about the subway, Ras, but "5799" sure looks real to me.

All the best,

Hi

yes I did look at the picture on the DB but has anybody seen it in the stores?

The subway was a speculation in one on the "new sets this year or next" topic's  here

I don't like the 'XX pc' on the top of the blister but it does look good if it is a fake. Well, some of the other blisters listed in that thread are out and they have the 'XX pc' so maybe that was just a mockup although I noticed 5820 didn't show the pcs.  ???

Maybe Geobra is getting a bit "fancy" with their numbers, Gepetto.

Perhaps they're trying to tell us that there are twenty pieces in the blister pack ... ;D

All the best,

The XXpc may also be a way of distinguishing the mass market items..... ???

Hmmm ...  :hmm:

When you "zoom in" on the image of "5799 ACW soldiers", it looks like it might be a "fake" ...  :o

What does everyone else think?

I have never seen the Cowboy hat logo in the top right corner...
The cowboy klicky head.
I thought it looked different for the western theme, am I wrong?

I got two of these, but the Union soldier wasn't like the one in this picture, but like the blond one in the item attached. The Western logo is like that, with the black hat & a star, all right.

I wrote about it, a while ago (around December, if not mistaken, when I got the blister).
