I think they're still timeless! They're pirates. Kids have been fascinated by pirates for generations. But their perception of what pirates should look like is somewhat based on movies, since most of us have never seen real pirates. Our ideas of what they should look like were shaped my the movies we watched and the picture books we read, too, which are probably only loosely based on reality.

Wow,
Lovely new sets. I've been out of the loop for a couple of months but I like what they are producing!
The caveman sets are just timeless, I hope they really do well! (I'll probably get some)
The boat theme is also great but due to the fact that I'm a train boy ,I'll probably only get the café set for my city.

I love the new fairy castle, the design is just awesome! I only which they toned down the colors a bit so I could buy on as well :love:. Imagine this building in grey with a black or red roof. I think most of us would buy it in an instant. Those pegasi are horrible (to much like Barbie and other crappy Mattel products, who are usually discontinued within a couple of months of release.)

I love the look of the space stuff but it is not my bag, so I won't buy.

The car theme is to chaffy/redneck for me.

Actually, movie pirates are based upon the pirates in Robert Louis Stevenson's book, Treasure Island, and how he portrayed them.

His book has been the greatest inspiration on public perception of pirates of all literature.

A little paint will fix it up nicely!
