Hiya - here is another pic of the figure with the outfit turned up slightly - I think she is genuine but maybe someone has just got creative with her - The bizarre thing is, it was mine as a child and neither me nor my mother made the outfit so its a mystery as to how we came to own it !!!

Regarding the farm set - is this rare in itself or is it just the pale carrier that is rare ?

Thanks again guys.

Maybe we should start a vote in regards to the female figure being custom! I vote custom designed figure! 3 for custom votes so far.

I'd vote for a custom too.
As for the yoke - I've been looking for one for ages - after the merry men's feast that is my favourite set   :love: (apart from the Victorian fence of course!  ;D )

The yoke is useful for scenes round the world right up until Victorian times, but I think the whole farm set is rare because it's so early, anf there were very few adult collectors of Playmobil in the early years.

Regarding the clothed klacky, I wonder if you have any siblings who might have added the dress when you weren't looking?

Now the young lady underneath the knitted dress looks genuine and the original dress can be seen.  I found this young lady on playmoDB who is a match apart from her hair colour:

Alternatively, try "find a klicky" on playmoDB which allows you to specify, for example, wrist type, hair colour.  I've tried this but can't find the search button!

She is just a classic female.

A dime-a-dozen type... In many different sets in the early years.  From what I can tell, the green torso female first appeared in 1976 [the first year for females] she had red/brown hair though.  Your version has moveable hands so she wouldn't have shown up until 1982.   Hair has always been removable so perhaps her black coif came from someone else  :eh?: ???  Klickys are known to do strange things when we aren't looking  :0
