4891 - CHRISTMAS MARKET - Review

[Gis]

I'm planning on making a wildlife park rather than a zoo, but I'm sure the stalls could be used there too - that's if I haven't already used them for something else - I really will have to get more!   

Sounds exciting, will that be for Kirkbean 2011?

Thanks for the review. I am just trying to see where I can get all the new Christmas items on to my Playmobil Christmas layout.

Excellent review Elaine.   I am totally in love  with the female klicky from the couple.  I think she looks so cool, like she should be in a hipster ski lodge or something.

very nice review elain thanks 



the light blue scarf the woman has is the same with the victorian lady's scarf in pink colour from 5507 and 5300?

Thank you for the pictures and the review, Elaine!

These market stalls will be very useful for creating outdoor markets for a variety of themes.

Great review! Very informative.

Thanks for all the close-up photos, Elaine!
I'm glad you managed to get the set for an affordable price.

THe Klickies look like actors/models from an Old Navy Commercial!  I like, actually

Elaine,
Your review was first class! I bought two (as well as the Christmas Room) at the FL FunPark earlier this month and adore them. They are offered by PM US as well for 24.99USD. With six figures and so many parts, that seems to be a great price.

The blue and white sweater lady is now Collectible 5204-5 with different accessories in light blue rather than teal. In the photo below, the 4891 lady is on the left with the aqua scarf; the 5204-5 collectible figure is on the right with light blue accessories. They are two very cool ladies.

Thanks again for the detailed review....it is a big help in making a purchase decision. My only thoughts are that the birds do fall off the roof too easily and they need more instruments for the other figures. Too bad PM does not feed you royalties on sales after such a fine recommendation!

Cheers, Pgal

Thanks for sharing a comparison of these two figures, pgal! I had thought they were the same, and thought it strange one of the mystery figures wouls be a recycled klicky. But now I see there are a few differences, my favorite of which are removable gloves. I hate when the actual hands are colored.
