:) dark green, you mean.
:-[ i must confess that i still have my doubts about the "greenery" of the guard - for years i thought it was black.
anyway, it has a jacket so much darker than the "original" 3859 - http://www.klickypedia.com/sets/3859-esp-pirates-prison-tower/


I agree that the guard's tunic looks very dark green on the 9989 box picture, but is that borne out in the actual klicky? PlaymoDB has this Klicky as the same as the one in 3859 and 3914. All the other klickies also look the same as klickies which have appeared in other sets, in fact 9989 seems to contain no unique parts (apart from the box), so you could make it up from other sets (unless that is cheating!).

Edit: here's one that looks (ordinary) green.

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)

thank you graham-b - comparing the 2, the green seems to be exactly the same.
no yellow cuffs or collar in the spanish set though.
maybe that's what makes it look darker.
8} in a closer look, how the hell those pirates let someone in chains have a rifle beats me.
::) maybe someone told them they weren't in the caribbean but, instead, in north america and they got confused.
:) cristobal colón is to blame for all this.

:) there's still one.
:lens: the north american 3570 schaper pirate - http://www.klickypedia.com/sets/3570-sch-pirate-rowboat/
from the outside it looks just like the other europen sets but, inside, the figure is different.
it actually looks like the mexican 13570 set.
:hmm: come to think of it, this is the only image i have of this set.
??? could it be that the interior was replaced with a mattel one?.

Sail west from Europe and call everyone you meet an Indian!

Sorry, I couldn't resist that one!

Well, I departed from Calais and reached shore after just a very few nautical miles...
The inhabitants call their land "(Little) Britain" ...or  was it "England"... no, wait... "United Kingdom"....ehrr..."Wales" perhaps?....nope... Whatever, we call them Redbeafs. And folks overthere are not sure weither or not they want to belong to Europe. So most likely we´re gonna call them Indians too.  ;D

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

 :lol: :lol: :lol:

Little Britain will do for me (thanks to the comedy series of the same name starring Matt Lucas and David Walliams !) though the official name is UK.

As to whether 'we' want to be part of Europe or not, well THAT's an interesting subject and a big part of the General Election campaigns we are suffering here at the moment!

:-[ i am sorry for uing your pictures without asking you first aleon.
i don't know where i got them from.
but i always try to ask for permission first - so i guess they are "second hand" pictures from somewhere - i don't whom i asked.

:'( i am so envy of you having the lyra sets - specially the lonely pirate.
i've lost one for incompetent bidding and never saw one again.

:) is there any other rarities you would like to share?

:) i was helping with the klickypedia database but run-out of sets.

sure,
I see you like pirates.  I have 6 pirates, and I think I have all. I never have seen any other.
There are the pirates of the famobil box 3280 and too one with black body with green arms and legs.

There are too 6 indians (2 girls, 2 chiefs, and 2 men).
there is a post in playclicks talking about them.

If you do not find the 6 pictures let me know and I will send the ones you need.
