Every year Playmobil has a different historical theme and this year it's the Egyptians. The Egyptians have been available in Europe since March and they're finally here in the US.
The entire Egyptian line includes this set, the Sphinx, a temple a ship and multiple small sets of figures and accessories. This Pyramid is literally the cream of the crop, not only in this theme, but one of the best designed Playmobil sets ever.
I'm not sure if I should go into too much detail here since customers might want to discover all the tricks of this set by themselves and actually if they wanted to, look them up on the internet. Suffice it to say that this is the most intricate, detailed and best designed Playmbil building set ever. It really is very well engineered and designed. The set itself is a pyramid, and it can be opened up. Inside you will find two levels with a bunch of tricks and traps designed to defeat grave robbers, and ultimately if the robber is successful, he will find the Pharoah's tomb. This the first time I can recall that Playmobil has come up with a set with as many movable items inside of it. This set is expensive, the most expensive in this theme, but it's well worth the money.
For those not familiar with Playmobil, all it's products are of the highest quality. Everything is well made, thought out and designed by this great German company which has been popular in Europe for decades but only relatively recently in the US. Playmobil is the Mercedes of toy brands.
The great secret about Playmobil is that there are tons of add ons. If you get this set, you probably won't be satisfied with it and will want to get all the other sets in this theme until you build an entire Egyptian kingdom. You can buy as many or as few sets as you wish, you can accessorize them any way you want. And there is an entire world of collectors out there with internet guides, catalogs and forums where you can hang out with like minded people.
I really like this set because it is just so fun and I highly recommend it.

MY two small sons love Playmobil and their new Egyptian line is one of their best yet! This pyramid is the main set - and most expensive - in this line with a lot of additional smaller and cheaper sets available to add to their fun. The boys can play with this set for hours and I love that it encourages creative play.
Some of the recent Playmobil additions did not go over too well with my boys. The Romans and Circus did not last long. This one brought smiles, exclamations of joy as they discovered the hidden areas and hand tugging as they showed me what they discovered. At a little over $100, you want a toy to be worth it. Although I have noticed a slight deterioration in quality from older sets, it is solid and better built then 95% of the toys out there. This combined with the hours of enjoyment equals a great buy in my book.
There is an order form for an interactive CD if returned with copy of receipt. So for the price of a stamp, you get a free CD. Maybe it's a reward for all the stickers you need to affix to this set. Be forewarned, you need a steady hand since you need to get this right on the first attempt.
For those parents concerned with the manufacturing: Playmobil has production plants in Malta, Spain and the Czech Republic. It helps not having to worry about safety issues (lead paint comes to mind) when purchasing your child's toy.

I've just spent a couple of hours building this set with my ten year old son. (I did the stickers; he did everything else.) We marveled at the amount of detail this includes. Not only are there the tricks to defeat the grave robber, there's the four urns with appropriately shaped lids, and the skeleton inside the mummy wrappings inside the sarcophagus. I've always enjoyed the quality and durability of Playmobil - this set impresses me with the educational value as well.
My son says, "I think this set is cool because it has so many things!"

Not worth the money
We have a lot of Playmobile but no kits. So pirates but no pirate ship, knights but no castle, etc. This is mainly because we also have Imaginext sets. Read more
