Cool , thanks for posting these pictures , looking at the klikcy arrangement at the bottom picture looking at the rider klikcy and the red/black trousers klikcy  i wonder if these klickies were a poor choice for that display and ought to have ben replaced with singel color older ones  :hmm: :hmm: :hmm:

Obviously we care more about the "true history" than geobra does.  :lol:

For correct genealogy of klickies you'd have to go to Eric's Museum in Norway. - He is sure to avoid such "blunders".

I wanna go!!! :hissyfit: It seems this is THE funpark to visit. I think kids would have a wonderful time, and adults, too. But my question is, why can't they build their other funparks like that, where they are actually worth going to? Why only that one? The others are small and pathetic. :-\

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

Personally I think that geobra is (still) 20 years behind LEGO. There used to be only ONE Legoland in the 1970s somewhere in Holland (, I think).

Similar distance is shown in other fields (PCC; Ads in the US etc.) Sometimes I think geobra just don't really dare to start going really global and meaning it. (Going global usually means that you have to invest enormous amounts of money BEFORE you can reap the harvest of your efforts).

While its made with kids in mind, for any amusement park its very important that the parents enjoy it as well. They decide wether to go there or not and how
long they will stay after all.

If they had exclusive stuff available at the parks, that would surely be an incentive as well. Would need to be new parts, just different sets made from using existing parts, or just having older sets available there.

The FunPark in Malta is small, but then so is Malta with a population of 300,000 to 400,000, i.e. the size of a medium British city.  However, there is an excellent range of stock in the shop and a fair quantity of stuff from the DS catalogue, but not everything.

in the US, apart from the funpark in Palm Beach FL there was another one somewhere in that state (i think?) which was only a big pm store, not a funpark :hmm: (does anyone know if that 'funpark' still exists?)
