Title: Imjin Koreans with new hats
Post by: cheng on January 06, 2014, 02:57:17
anyone can guess what 3 playmo-parts make up their new hats? shall I wait for red tassels of spray them?! a dilemma...but I think there's still room for improvement :sparkle: :sparkle: :sparkle:

I would need a better picture. They don't seem to fit down on the head though. They look great by the way

here's a clearer photo, Ras!
you probably noticed the gaps between the brim of their hats and the top of their hair line...
in reality, they actually tie a white 'bandana' around their head and then sit those hats...so these hats are not pulled snugly over their crown...I am trying to find a way to add this 'bandana' but there's little room available

Maybe use one of those pirate hairpieces WITH bandana? Of course, trimming it would be a big waste, me thinks :-[

I guess that idiotic figure's "hair bandana" piece would be worse, cause there's no hair....

and fitting the cap without gluing is perplexing if at all possible...I've even thought of that pirate with a printed bandana but it'll be under the hair rather than over it...ok ok I be stop talking in riddles

I meant this hair with bandana - LINK : 6289 (http://www.playmobil.de/on/demandware.store/Sites-DE-Site/de_DE/Product-Show?pid=6289&showSpareParts=false&cgid=Piraten#cgid=Piraten&start=7)

(http://playmobil.scene7.com/is/image/Playmobil/6289_product_detail?$pdp_zoom_inner$&locale=de_DE)

Hats fit the same as with other hairpieces.

and Tahra, I meant your this klicky's head...do you have a photo showing if its printed all around his missing cranium??
Title: Re: Imjin Koreans with new hats
Post by: cheng on January 08, 2014, 01:05:27
ok...my temporary solution to look more correct...what's their white bandana made from?
(someday red tassels will come out...if Geobra persists with Asians...until then, this sprayed ones will have to do...but paint wont stay permanently on soft plastic forever)

OVER the hair, only that new pirate - won't do?  I THINK there is one in whiteish.

Well, for me, yes. For you, I doubt it!  (although it is a shame to cut that gorgeous hair..)

haven't seen the whitish one but without trimming the long pirate hair, it pushes down on his beard...anyway, its a waste to trim these pirate hair like you said

Hey, this photo gives away the answer to my first question "which PM parts his hat is made from" :P

OK. Here's my guess then: the brim is a round shield (old style) and the top is the rubber from the plumber (without the shaft). Is that correct?

Right Arnaud! 50marks for identifying the mongol shield!

I dont have any of the plumber's rubber plunger...(can somebody try and see if it fits a klicky's head...we might have discovered something by accident here!)
...I sprayed the top of the hat, if that's any clue ;D

Tahra...please allow another few hours...I think youre jumping for attention right now!

Damn! I was sure about the rubber! I have no other idea. Anyone?

Tahra, you have the answer...so here's the photo  ;)

Great work what creativity to turn shieds and kids wooly hats into such nice looking hats never would have guessed until I saw the phot looking down on the hats and someone mentioned the kids hats. Great photo as well it's good tos ee them in action and to see some of the weapons Playmobil made in use.

So cowabounga guessed the black brim(?) was from the old black shield and H-M identified the sprayed bobble caps...so this ends this thread...thanks playmofriends!
