Title: Can anyone tell me about this little 'Jedi' figure?
Post by: MimmaBlue on February 19, 2014, 01:58:25: I picked up a bulk lot of Viking/fortress stuff on eBay, and it included this little figure. I love his cape. He looks like a little padawan Jedi.

Can anyone tell the set he came from? And what is supposed to go in the hole in his cape??

Thanks!

As to what goes in the little hole in the cape, get creative ;)

Wonder where he got his little staff from? It has a bird/crow head on the end.

The "staff" is common in indian sets..

I tell stories to my little three year old daughter about a friendly witch girl named 'Wicca" and made a Playmobil version for her. I've used a purple princess with white arms and black hair, given her that cape and hat, a broom and the result is great!

I started wondering where the all black kid can be from seeing as that is not normal.

. . . and it was Rasputin who showed it to us way back when . . .

. . . That looks very much like an old Target exclusive. One more for the list and now I am back up to 999 :lol: That fire wizard is a good looking Klicky also .

Rasputin "The Mad Monk"

As you mentioned Tim, I think it was only sold in Australia and I don't think it ever made it to the U.S. Target stores.

Must have been in my moronic years. WANT the little guy ("Zeus" is very common). Unfortunately, I don't think we have more than one of those alien sets, for the cape and hood.. :(

Thanks for posting!

Post by: Rasputin on February 19, 2014, 22:27:34: This set and all the other gnomes need a re-release one of these days. The whole series or an updated one. 4950-4963 sets. I was not collecting back then and they are really expensive if you can find them. Geobra had the 5 pack recently but the specific gnomes seem more interesting.
