The only thing I'm not to sure about is the animal skin sash, it looks like a baby Leopard skin to me that seems a bit cruel. I don't mind seeing a big nasty lions head or wolfs head on my figures but the thought of a baby animal disturbs me a little. Still it is historically correct I guess for the period and may not be intended to be a baby leopard.

Hello, Garry ...

I'm surprised that Andi didn't explain image-d ...

It's actually a funeral procession for the Pharoah's favourite kitty that got run over by a chariot ...  8}

All the best,
Richard

thankyou thankyou andi for so many great pictures. the egyptian series gets better with each new glimpse.  i love the great seal, ok, history guys, does anyone know the meaning/owner of the seal?  and her eyes (c), she is the everyday mom, no make-up, i love her dress color, she looks like a hard worker, and my favorite.

the vet series will give us extra goodies to put into the hospital, new office equipment, along with the ct scanner we saw in an earlier photo.  i like the boo-boo bandaid on the cow.

the thief in q is great, is that the first face smudge?  (sorry, i am new to this)  i think it is funny that the thief was caught "red-handed"  is that an american english phrase only?

and (sigh) the new bride is beautiful, i like the klicky in the stained glass window.

thanks again
kaethe

Yes! (Watch somebody prove me wrong.) ... ;)

i think it is funny that the thief was caught "red-handed" ...

Thanks, Kaethe ...  Great visual pun ... I missed it completely!

All the best,

so i suspect you will be buying extra copies of the playmo catalogue to read in all of your playmo rooms.

Hello, Kaethe ...

Fortunately, the Playmobil catalogs are free (gives me more money to buy more Playmobil sets) ... ;)

However, if you're talking about having the Playmobil "Collector" always within reach, then one can never have too many of those ... ;)

All the best,
Richard

i dont think the torch works relay yet, its the torch from the heli !

But the blue light from the motorbike works if you push the button !
The new LED System that playmobil use makes it more interesting to make smaler things, so we can look at the future for real torch lightning ??

Thanks for the extra information on the torch.  It looks as if it could be made to work at some time as the design has changed.  It used to have a solid, yellow lens but now it's a clear plastic lens.

A friend at Playmobil told me they were venturing carefully into more use of electronics, and things like the flashing light on the police bike and the flashing lights on the new work barriers are an ideal start to the new trend.

It looks like a cannibal shrunken head , they removed the bones inside the Leopard and the sun makes the rest so you get a shrunken leopard, looks like a baby one !
