Football World Championship Figures
« on: November 03, 2005, 06:53:55 »
 Here are new football sets, available ??? soon.

   The first pic shows an explanation of three symbols  saying where each figure is available.

 The sets with a triangle will be on sale in D, A, and ?? H Maybe?
 
 The sets with a star will be available in far more countries, including D. I can´t read the print I´m afraid.

  The circle shows that the sets are NOT on sale in the countries named, unfortunately  D is included, but I can´t read most of the rest.

 You will see that these figures are quite different from  the usual clicky. There shirts are different and their legs move.   So much potential  for customising.  I wonder what their bottoms look like!

I am disappointed that there arent as many female soccer players, and no international female players.

I am also saddened by only having right footed players. ;)

When these figures come out, will someone please tell us if it is possible to "crack" them open like other figures.

Hi Meg, btw. :)

In general, the collection of international players is pretty much disappointing.
Clearly, there is the lack of a turkish team, so there will be no mediterrean
skin tone available...
The really surprising thing about these females is that they will be not available
in the US and CAN, where for sure female soccer is much more popular than
somewhere else in the world...

I completely agree. Being a left footed soccer player I am very upset about
this as well...   ;D

So, by accident, on last weeks big member meeting of the german board in
Ritterhude (close to Bremen)  one of these little fellows appeared:
http://www.playmo-portal.com/viewtopic.php?t=5694&start=45
And you can be sure that we cracked him...
They are completely similar structured, but the chest is a little shorter as the
legs need a certain degree of freedom. There I learned the spanish way to
crack a figure btw, as you cannot bend them over...  8-)

best regards,

I don't like them kicking klickies. A klicky with movable legs is hardly a klicky. I hope this leg-thing don't spread to other themes...  >:(

Other than making the Rockettes, I cant see a lot of usefulness in kicking klickies (OK, Punters for american football)

Besides, klickies want to sit down, and relax
