I've ordered several of each of these, but I think the Swan knight is spoilt by his red belt and the wrong sort of boots.

Playmobil are currently using too many bright colours in the Knight theme. Red shield and crest is OK, but he should have dark silver legs (same colour as his sword, I think Playmobil are calling it anthracite) and the same for his belt.

Greetings,

I agree, on all points, but I have no doubts I'll be able to find uses for all the parts. Except maybe the head: I find the brown, twirled-up, 3-Musketeers-style moustache a bit dopey-looking. Happily, I have a bag full of other heads waiting to be attached to bodies.

Cheers,

AndrewL

I for one, am glad with the legs he has - it will do nicely for my little project. If all succeeds, then I should have some men-at-arms for my castle.

I am not that impressed with the Swan knight but the Arab warrior is definitely of major interest!

I also really like CountBogro's new avatar, those background pictures add a lot to the overall effect!
