Vintage Playmobil #4256
King with Throne
99% Complete/EXC++ (C)
(retired)
Here for your inspection is a colorful add-on set to Playmobil's Magic Princess Castle #4250 play set. It is Playmobil's #4256 King with Throne set. It is 99% Complete and is in EXC++ condition. The only thing missing from this offering is a rug.
The set consists of a sage King, his pampered black panther, and his gilded throne. The King comes resplendent in his full royal regalia, his majestic purple cape trimmed in "gold," his impressive "gold" crown with its purple insert, and his royal "gold" slippers. The King signs important proclamations using his feathered quill pen and "gold" circular table. His massive throne exhibits numerous carvings and two, elevated candelabras with blue lamps provide the lighting for his chamber. His playful panther may be restrained using his chain and red collar and by inserting the attached clip into the floor. (Note: Somehow I overlooked putting the combination clip/System X black plug in my photos. You will be receiving this piece along with the rest of the set). Since this panther is a pet, the King generally allows him free reign in his chamber. The King's royal scepter belies his authority and he freely wields it to reinforce his commands.
This is a delightful add-on set and one that is sure to captivate young children.
FYI, Playmobil toys are renowned for their high quality, durability, attention to detail, and the extendibility of their underlying toy system. All figures are scaled to fit in a child's hand with add-on accessories (e.g. hats, skirts, aprons, collars, scarves, armor, headdresses, shoes, sandals, jewelry etc.) lending authenticity to the different characters involved. The jointed figures are able to clasp items in their hands and move about through "child power." A wide assortment of vehicles, animals, furniture, and buildings are realistically scaled according to their "real-life" equivalents and to reflect actual life scenarios. Several of the animals have mouths that open and close and the elephants' trunks can pick up buckets by their handles etc..
All of Playmobil's play sets revolve around established "themes" familiar to young children (e.g. Medieval Castles and Knights, Pirates, Western Forts, Native Americans, Trains, Stage Coaches, Gold Mines, Circuses, Zoos, Victorian Mansions, Fairy Tale Castles, Sherwood Forest, Construction, Doctors and Dentists' Offices, Hospitals, Airports, Modern Homes etc.).
Due to the level of detail, children's imaginations are afforded endless open-ended play opportunities. Not only do these toys broaden a child's imagination, creativity, attention, and use of elaborate oral narratives, they also facilitate a child's cooperative and dramatic play skills and fine motor capabilities. These toys have won numerous national and international toy awards and conform to the highest production standards of quality and safety in accordance with European and American safety guidelines. The toys, while primarily manufactured in Germany, also are produced in Malta and Spain. They are distributed in more than 70 countries throughout the world.
I can vouch for the high quality and play value these toys afford. My own children played with a variety of these sets up until age 13! Talk about getting "your bang for the buck." Several of them were employed in school diorama projects. What a lifesaver! I also used them with my preschool and school aged clients for speech-language therapy. They'd be great for families that are home-schooling their children.
Due to the small, intricate parts, Playmobil recommends that these toys be reserved for children 4 years of age and up. Adult supervision is highly recommended for children under 3-4 years of age.
This is a fabulous set and one to provide many years of fun. It should not be given to children still mouthing their toys or under 3 years of age.
This set weighs 7 oz. UNWRAPPED. My location is Lafayette, IN (47905).
