Yes Peter, A most wonderful time of contemplation.

Thankyou for sharing a photo of the Schleich Nativity set.

I hope to be able to get one this Christmas too.

God Bless you everyone!

Thank you, Peter !
I almost forgot Advent for all this snow, - it is very early this year :)
What a fine little show, the Nativiti-set with Schleich from both Wester, Kinghts, farm, tools and elves.
Great job

Holy Moses, have you seen the prices this is going for now*here*

Let`s see what the auctions end at, - 100 Euros perhaps ?
Or will the guy sell his for buy-it-now of 150 Euros ?

I think the price was about 15 Euros a few years ago

Uhhhhu, it makes me think how time runs, - imagine that stuff I bought a "News" is now a rare collector`s item

I didn´t know about this nativity set. Interesting, but not my style... And a bit expensive, too xD

I have the nativity set I got it in 2006 and it still has the box in perfect condition with all figures

Not my thing!! But not bad!!

Last year it was going for $30.00 plus shipping but I see sellers asking $45.00 US dollars this year.

I like the set. Of course I only display it during the Christmas Season. You can add animal figures to it too.

I was thinking about getting this set because I wanted something to decorate for Christmas and I really don't have room for a tree or anything like that. guess I will have to find another brand..........

I love the set, too.
As Sue said it is very nice to make a scenery with farm animals. I also use the palm tree from the old Schleich Zoo-set, and some angels I have had for many years.

They usually stand on my piano for the week before and the week after christmas. Traditions are wonderful , especially at christmas

Rusty, if you can get it for 45 dollar, it is a bargain compared to the prices in Europe
Still a lot of money, - but there are 6 models and it was only made for 2 years

I looked on Ebay here in the US and its about $50. My problem is I am not a big fan of People figures anyway and also it would be in the box for most of the year. Maybe I will just find me a baby jesus and surround him with my animals.

That is a very good idea

And some angels, too

i had no idea Schleich made a nativity set!!
very cool. but if i were to get a set, i think i'd go for the Hartland set: it's 20 pieces, including the barn and angel.

i love nativity sets, but i don't collect them. i do collect nativity set sheep, though! my set of Hartland nativity sheep! Which my cat Spence has been knocking around like skittles! bad kitty!

Rusty, there is a Hartland baby Jesus on ebay.

you know it's from the 50s since he's not nude, but they put him in a onesie?!

A set that was claimed to be new just auctioned for $53 on eBay.com, an absolute steal. I didn't try to win it, however, because the plastic on top of the figurines had been removed and I've spent too much on Schleich recently anyway.

A typical price on eBay.de for one that is "neu und OVP" is 100 euros. The price has increased with each passing year since retirement.

It is a beautiful series of figurines, but I think I would only purchase one as a gift for my parents, who are evangelical Christians.

Yeah, i knew this already some years ago...
The guy who bought my former Schleich collection bought a lot of these sets, and sold them with big profits in that time, specially around this time of course...

I broke my rule this year and put the set on the piano already yesterday

Now I hope that Mummi will leave them alone , - last year she tried to eat Baby Jesus

This year there is an extra little king ( to the right). I got him in a small lot of Bullylands

Specially this set needs protection Susanne!

Found this set, new in the box, for $43 on eBay.com, so I couldn't pass up such a deal. It arrived today, from just down the road from me in Vacaville, CA. Here are some photos of these lovely figurines:

Thanks for the comment, Willy. Baby Jesus is maybe being fed with buttermilk...

who says he's extra? the book doesn't say how many there were.
