Of course by the time you read this, the set may no longer be available because I purchased it in the last chance section of the US playmobil site.
But I'll tell you about it anyway because it ended up being a more awesome surprise. First off, I wanted this set not only because it'd add dimension to my shelf (by having a figure repelling off the side instead of just standing on the shelf), but because of the purple shoes and glasses. It just seems like purple is such a rare color in playmobil, but purple is also a color I like alot. But I felt the $9 they wanted was too much because you're mostly paying for a chunk of gray plastic. But when it went on sale, I snatched it up right away.
He's pretty cool not only because his almost gaudy purple, teal, and yellow outfit, but here's the most awesome thing that you can't tell from any of the pictures: The back of the rock has a plastic adjustable clamp in the back, so you can attach this anywhere, and it wont just topple over! I'm just super excited about that because I thought the rock would just sit there, and I imagined my cat getting at the guy and the whole thing plummeting to the ground in the middle of the night. But no, I can clamp it to my shelf! I'm just too excited.
Also, to add to the gaudiness, the rope is not yellow as in pictures but a neon yellow! I love it.
