Hey guys,

been a long time since I've been here, but i wanna present you all with a little puzzle. A riddle...a treasure quest..whatever you may call it :)

I've bought a bit of playmo and in it, there was a lot of modern stuff. Now I'm quite good with playmo in the 1974-1990 range..but anything made after 2000 is like unknown to me.

So I present you with this! (click photo to enlarge).

If anyone spots sets (or parts of sets) , it would help me a lot :)

Here's what I can tell from a quick flip through the catalogue (and personal experience, haha)

- The beds are from the 4145 take-along dollhouse (+ the mom and dad)
- The circus elephants are from set number 4235
- The orange podium is from the clown set 4231
- The horse seems to be from set 4234 (circus act with horses)
- I see a few parts from the 4230 circus itself (the yellow thing to dangle from, the ticket booth, a few poles for the fence, the circus director...)
- The green dinosaur looks like it's from set 4175
- The little brown dinosaur is from set 4174

There's some stuff from Specials too:

- 4664: puppet theatre
- 4660: seal and baby seal
- 4663: king

On the lower right are the "feet" from the police waterplane, I think...

And the barefoot woman above it could be the one from the animal ark.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one :)

The baseplate, palm tree, and pirates are from 4139. http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=4139 In fact I see klickys and rock parts from two of that set.

I just see lots of great usefull parts, no part numbers or set number required. We can't get enough of the random mixed up lots, "huge" is our favorite.

You could get creative and try and find new uses for these parts before you know what they really are.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

Hey, I love sorting lots like that one, putting the sets back together as far as possible. I didn't see the other replies before I went away and did an annotated version of your photo. Then I realised that loads of people have replied. Never mind, here's my contribution.


Here's all the sets I found:
Keesinho just discovered modern PM

There are also quite a few Special klickies in there, but I have never seen that giant Beer Bottle at the back, perhaps its from the 2015 catalogue?
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

can I just say thank you? Man I am impressed! :D

I know how much fun it is to put the pieces of a puzzle together and  I'm glad you guys know this much about all the modern stuff !

@GrahamB lol@sixpack. The beer didn't come with the playmo, but it sure is a good friend at sorting times :D :D :D

The six pack label on the beer bottle completely cracked me up, particularly as I hadn't noticed it in the first, unlabeled picture!  :lol: :lol:
