[playmo1989]

why in the anniversary sets that are made once in a while they don't make the klickys with the first non movable hands ?

I had one of these klickies (I named her Mary). A few years ago, I sacrificed a male klicky to replace her arms. I considered it a good resolution, and was very happy.

To make a klicky with moveable hands a different injection technology is used and I suppose that the old machines are no longer available.

No, I've never heard of this problem or come across it myself.  Of course, for most people in real life the right hand is bigger than the left hand because the right hand is used more and so is more developed.  Maybe Playmobil was trying to reflect real life in great detail.  Maybe left handed people like me complained because there were no klickies with the left hand bigger than the right, so Playmobil decided to make both hands the same size.

  no i don't mean it that way ,i say the older movable hands were bigger than the current ones ,and when they changed them and started produce the smaller ones some klickys had both hand in the one side the small and the other the big ,i don't mean the whole arm ,the movable hand only the white when i say big i don't mean a huge difference but a little thicker , i think they changed it so the klicky can catch things more easily  ,strange that you haven't notised it?

.....older movable hands were bigger than the current ones....

yes and I use these older movable ones for my asians whenever I can(not because they can hold spears/swords better  but because they are lighter in color  )
