Just put an offer on this. I think I have seen the guardian figure before but never this set. I like the little cloaked figure that comes with it. Can anyone tell me anything about it?

Hi Linda.
I never saw this box before either, but the figures and parts aren't new. Except maybe for the rising cobra and the grey beard for the child-clicky (not an expert on those though, maybe Tiermann would know about the snake).
Best,
Arnaud

If I recall correctly this was never available in the US.  It was sold in Australia.  (At Target?)
Maybe someone else remembers more about it than I do.

Wow - an Australian exlcusive? I remember years and years ago seeing Playmobil in Target but not really taking much notice of it. Target Australia no longer stocks it. I have not seen this seller before. They also have a photo with santa set for $25.

Yes, this is that rarity - an actual Australian exclusive. I have a couple that I got from Janette in NSW back when they were released. It's a nice combo. The green cobra is in two other sets - a jungle one and the fakir from the circus series.

The seller has counter offered me $22.95  (a HUGE $2 off the listing price - I had offered $19.95). Is this reasonable? Post is a quite substantial $9.

PS - I have reaised that this should be in 'What is this" and not DS queries
