« on: August 08, 2016, 01:54:56 »
Am I hallucinating or does the current picture of the bison on pm.us show painted hooves?

Nope I'm pretty sure that's just the reflection of the light.

Reminds me of Golden Crows on eBay a while ago.. That was just a trick of the lighting too. Unfortunately links to ebay listings expire after a few months, but here is the PF link anyway...

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)

I agree, it appears to be lighting only. I love this iconic set. It's been around for so long and keeps returning to the Add-ons section every few years.

Lighting on Playmobil official photos is all over the place. I have lost track of the number of times tan turned out to be brown, or blue is white or whatever.
