New German Catalogue 2009/2010

Many thanks, Tomplay, for the pictures.    

The only item there which interests me is the firefighter duopack which is a good idea for those wanting to build up firecrew in the new uniform.  However, the mix of helmet colours is a bit strange, one or the other I would have thought would have been better.  The left hand figure appears to be holding a new style search line rather than the cowboy lasso of the firefighter Special.

The crystal sets look like another trip into non-traditional Playmobil territory, sad to say.

The lady in the bikini appears to have a new leg & body design. Very interesting to see a departure from the Playmobil standard of the last 35 years.

You're right, Martin.  The bikini will have required this.  There must be a new body interior.  I wonder if the legs move independently?  The body shape would allow it.

There is one DuoPack missing

Thank you for showing us the coming attractions, Tomplay! The new 2 piece bathing suit female Klicky is very interesting for customizing! However, I am reluctant to say anything about the LEGO wanna bees crystal adventure series,....Oh, did I say the "L" word? Sorry  ! OK! I don't like them, there you made me say it! However I do like the new large painted snake, that's a have to have, & I'm also interested in the new 6 wheeled amphibious vehicle for fire department custom purposes. And what's up with that new treaded tank looking, bazooka hook shooting vehicle, & the sonic jet engine powered water craft complete with a hook cannon mounted on the front, & rifles all over it, & a jet airplane, are we getting close to a first time future military theme, with futuristic weapons ?

mmm ... I guess you've already said it all, Bill. 
I sure hope that the new look of the lady in bikini isn't the look of things to come. I don't like it.
As to the crystalhunters - I like the buildings; they should go well with the jungle theme but otherwise I am disappointed by them.
I do like the compact set of the beach though - it's wonderfull

Hmmmm, I'm not very impressed by any of the sets except the firemen. The take along sets don't look like Playmobil at all, nor do the crystal hunter guys. More like sets from Tranformers or G I Joe.

Though I must say, I may have a few klickys here trying to get the bikini lady's number...

I like the giant reptiles in the Crystal Treasure sets.  Nothing like giant lizards and snakes.  Love 'em.

I also like the bikini Klicky although she would not go with any theme that I collect.

I don't understand the knights with wings.  What kind of theme is that?  It's not historical.  Is it from some fantasy novel?  Is Playmobil making up its own fantasy world?  Whatever they are, I have no desire to collect them.

I think it's meant to go with the Dragonland theme. Not quite Geobra's own - there were some sort of flying knights in Flash Gordon, if my mind serves me right.
Anyway - I quite like the klickies from that theme. Not historical - true - but great fantasy in my books!

I've got firefighters with their cell phones ready, Ben! She's going to be very popular   !
