The bowler hat I used as example is a not so common item, even in black.
...
Btw, time being spent on erasing increasing loads of unwanted prints is also going up steep.

Fortunately the brown bowler hat is available via ds but I don't understand why something like horses are copyrighted like they are.

Many of the licensed theme animals have unique paint on them to make them look like the characters. It's not different than a klicky that is specific to a character.

The horses from the new prison cart set are just dark horses with black manes. Nothing particularly characterful about them. Plus the movie is a playmobil franchise so why are they treating their own property like this?

That is an interesting question...

For the same reason they wouldn't sell the little Rico on the pcc?!

Was that the rowboat boy?

Thanks. I see there are a couple of sets based on him. I was thinking of the kid version in the paddle boat.

That was the one I meant, yes..

The bowler hat is "available", but I tried to order it and I got the reply that it is part of a licensed klicky, so no, you can't order the hat separately... In other words: the hat is part of the characteristics of the figure.

The same goes for the fur cape of Astrid: https://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30096372 . Not available for separate orders.

Ugh!

Who makes these stupid decisions? It's a brown hat with a playing card printed on it. They should have done what they did when the Super4 stuff came out and the shoulder armour came in printed and non-printed versions.
