And finally, the Pirate tower, 5782, with the new pirates... And yes, Hadoque, the bandana is printed on the head (another one for Andi's database I think ;)).

I have not seen this set publicized anywhere else yet, so please send people to Playmofriends to see it rather than distributing the photos elsewhere, thanks!

Thanks for the pictures, Cap'n ...

The conversion possibilities  for the pirate in 5781 would have wonderful, if it weren't for that durn "peg-leg." I've got so many peg-legs in my Playmobil parts box that I'm about to scream.

Somebody should tell Playmobil to STOP making peg-legs !!!

Am I the only one who's sick of new klickys with peg-legs ... ???

Thanks again, Cap'n.

All the best,
Richard

Ahoy there, Cap'n ...

You slipped in another post while I was typing ... :)

Now 5782 is a fine looking set !!!

The "bandana" over the eye is a welcome change from the "patch" that covered the eye of one too many klickys ... ;)

I see that they are already using the arm parts from the yet to be released Roman sets ...  :hmm:

My daughter Jennifer is in Fort Lauderdale and went to the Super Target in Deerfiled Beach. She came away empty handed as none of these sets have arrived yet in South Florida ... :(

Thanks again for ALL the pictures !!!

All the best,
Richard

Thx for the piccies, Cap'n !
Well, before seeing them, I imagined it would be an entire new head-mold with a bandana printed on it, so without a hat at all!  :doh:  ;D
These new pirates look quite cool  8-) , but except for this new eyepatch, I can't spot really new things...  And if it weren't for piccie of the back of the box, I would think they were customisations... they look reasonably close to some of my own or customs I've seen from others.

Is the red base for the large cannon new too? I don't remember seeing it before. A bunch of nice sets, I will have to take a look again this week. They will get here eventually.

I am totally impressed with the Target exclusives this year.  NO repeat figures.  (minus a few pals).  I must have all these pirate sets.  They are great.

Hi all...
I just saw most of the new Pirate, Knight, and Adventure sets in one of our Target stores here in the Phoenix, Arizona area.

I picked up the raft, a new Knight (for Knightmo), and the baseball player.

Cool stuff!!

Question...What  material is the sail on the raft made of?  I want to replace it.
I do not like the skull on the sail.

Cheers, and best regards,

Jimbo
