Thank you all for the praise, but I just made the photos; Bogro deserves the praise for his figure and the nice accessories.
But, Jochen, that very nice story is obviously not about the American variety of homeless person!!!

Yes, you're absolutely right (and I assume not only about Americans but also about a lot of more people all over the world), and I also can confirm the "fact" that I always "owe" spare change to somebody when in large German cities passing by those special social class people -- strange, isn't it?
I'm not sure if I would be so daring in real live, and anyway I must admit that I haven't spend much thoughts about real live adaption of this scenery when taking the photos. I just received this beautiful figure and wanted to put it into some "spotlight". So I made a shot of the first story line that came into my mind, not thinking about the before and the after (also to answer
Richard's question
), but just submerging into my intact world of Playmobil
-- anyway I know for sure, life is cruel, brutal and isn't fair at all (or as we said more "flowery":
life is not a child's birthday party) ... but you're right, maybe we should think more often about what we display and what it means/meant in real live for the affected people in physical and emotional feelings, e.g. being hit by a broad sword of a knight, smashed by a pirate's canon ball, tear into pieces by a wild animal in the Coloseum Maximus fighting for your live, or just being rescued after being involved into a car accident with a lengthy treatment and recovery ...
