Opinions?
« on: August 12, 2012, 07:18:59 »
I'm trying to pare down my next order. Which is cooler: this guy http://store.playmobilusa.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-US-Site/en_US/Product-Show?pid=7676 or this guy http://store.playmobilusa.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-US-Site/en_US/Product-Show?pid=4127 ?

I don't care for pirates, just comparing the two redcoats.

The first one is an absolute classic  :love: :love: :love: He's been around since 1990!!! So 22 years is a long time to show how much popular he is!!! I think I have 20 of him. However, he lacks a belt... I have given him a light blue sword belt to match the one coming down his torso.

The other one is also very nice, but I don't like the boots much... I think he is useful for spare parts and customisation.

I think both must be part of ones collection, at least one of each, and stay as they are.

But if you really want to settle for one of them, go for 7676.

I actually like the black shoes better than the blue ones, and the lack of a belt is a bit of a downer. But the 1st one has a cape! I want both really, but then again I want so many klickies... Both would help even out the gender ratios in my collection though...

Maybe it's because most of my stuff is Victorian, so there's a lot of maids. I need some redcoats to date the servant girls ;)

The second one is a more modern take....better boots and overall design. I just adore it. Though the joint is a bit loose.

Personally, I want ALL the redcoats! But I must control myself.

That guy looks familiar. What's he from?

They are both cool, but I'd buy the second one if I could only buy one because: it's cheaper and comes with a pirate (which I'm sure you could put to use somewhere!), the black boots are cool, and the black cuffs are a bit rare and nice for customs.  :)
