Much to keep and much to be resold.  ;)

The seller's blurb~

Massive and very rare Playmobil Egypt set.
Includes pyramid with secret doorways, lots of booby traps, hidden stairway, trapdoor etc. complete with sarcophagus, mummy, skeleton, snakes, scorpions, canonical jars, jewels etc. pyramid has 3 sides which come off for play. Sphinx has a hidden compartment inside. Robbers house, obelisk, temple with hidden chambers, and royal ship of Egypt which fires missiles. The ship does have slight damage (a bit came off and has been super glued, some missing clips, and a missing oar. This set also comes with horses, camels, a cat, a dog, pharaoh and wife, a priest, Egyptian citizens, grave robbers, Egyptian soldiers, lots of weaponry (bows, arrows, swords, shields, knives), jewelry, jars and urns, a treasure chest, and even an archaeologist, plus the al-important keys to open secret chambers.
This cost over $800 new, and I've never met a child who isn't fascinated by it.
Happy to provide further information.
Pick up only, as I have no idea how to package it all.
Inspection or questions welcome.

I of course talked her into posting it all to Melbourne, and yes, I'm sure I'll be fascinated by it when it arrives.  lol

I'm pretty sure it was your post that highlighted the item for the rest of us to chase.  ;)

Yes, your pics caused me to chase (and win) a Pyramid (together with a Pirate ship?)  ;)

I'm pretty sure it was your post that highlighted the item for the rest of us to chase.  ;)

Arrival. First impressions is the Pyramid is HUUUUUGE. Now surprised that the seller (EBay) agreed to pack it all up and send it interstate.

Will take more comparison pics with 28mm minis along side the various pieces soon.
