blue torso with light skinned neck printing
« on: July 16, 2014, 09:38:52 »
Can any Playmofriends let me know which set numbers these torsos come from or their ETN(umber)s...would make me some good new Asians.

Hi Cheng. I searched using 'find a klicky' on PlaymoDB using torso style=plain, face colour=light skin tone, sex=male, age=adult and torso colour= dark blue (also tried blue and light blue) and this was the nearest I came up with:

 http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/klicky.pl?partnum=30-00-4602;pic_num=2

The slightly good news is that there is a known ETN for this torso with the black v- neck border, it is 30 02 4770 and it is available from DS.
I also looked at the soccer figures, but no luck. Hope someone has better luck/knowledge/skill than me!
PS I also tried face printing=angry eyebrows/stubble in case that head in your picture belonged to the torso, but no luck again!

It is on klicky 30 00 6572, but no ETN for his torso, sorry!

Hey GrahamB, both figures & ETNs very appreciated....I tried PlaymoDb but lacked your touch and patience while thinking someone might already have bought the set(s) with him inside.
Both will make excellent samurai if I can find matching arms and legs later.
THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

Good job on the v-neck hunting! Those soccer players, with their back-views on the instructions and their separate collars, make description rather difficult.

Sorry to say, Graham and cheng, that 30 02 4770 is plain medium blue. Rationale: (a) it's not a "30 6" number, therefore no printing; and (b) it showed up (from the official site) in two sets with differently-patterned male torsos, so it must be the plain version of both. I know it has shown up elsewhere as well (like in 5466, see the official site), but I've made it a subpart of the klicky (and therefore it won't show as there, without looking at the text list of a set containing the part that contains it, like here). Complicated, I know. Sorry! Working on some improvements, really I am!
PlaymoDB.org has catalogued over FIFTY-FIVE THOUSAND parts in more than 6100 sets. Come and visit to find any set or part numbers you need to know!

Yes, I had to use Google to get box pictures in order to check. Usually it's back views of klickies that are hard to come by!

Complicated...

It certainly is! I will check more carefully in future. Looks like a painting job, cheng!
