Hammerhead shark!!?? I missed that!  :o

It comes with 2 pirates in a rowboat, there isn't a detailed pic of that set yet. You can see it vaguely in the pirates-overview piccie, on top in the lefthand-corner...

I've compressed the pics perhaps a bit too much... ::)  ;D
Anyone who has them at original size feel free to post them bigger!


Credits for all pictures go to "Streuner" who posted them on Klickywelt!

It's ok... they aren't that small. I just didn't look close enough!  ;)

True.... or cave children.
Actually, scratch that, looks like there might be a cave-child in the big cave set, that isn't shown with detail- maybe a lady too?

There's a woman and a kid in the big set, the one with the rocks and the mammot.

I can't stop looking at the pirate-ship pics, trying to find out more details.
I think the overall colour of the ship's deck must be a kind of yellow, hopefully not too bright...  Then a red bow-ornament, red steering wheel, etc... I really hope it will look ok and not kiddish...  :uhoh:

Also I keep being puzzled about the canons below deck. I've checked one of my 3940's equipped with the new canons (arrow-shooting ones), and they just fit below deck where the gunports are, but can't be fired, the hight below deck isn't enough.  ???

Perhaps there are some inner design changes with this new "3940"? Or oldstyle bullit-canons?
The canon-mouths surely won't be stickers or be printed on the hull I hope !?  :0

Why did they have to make those western buildings take-along??  I mean does slapping a handle on it make it any easier to "take-along"  Just make a friggin' normal building.  Maybe PM is testing the waters to see how the theme will be received with more to come later. IDK ???  I would hope with the resurge of the western genre of late in popular culture (True Grit re-make, Red Dead Redemption video game named Game of the Year by multiple sources)  we could expect a rebirth of the western theme.
