maybe someone will want to build a herd of mammoths :P

and Tahra, I assume the flint's neck(for holding/inserting into the carrier) is too fat to be inserted into the spear handles? (and assuming the necks of the spear's flint is narrower) meaning I cant swop the flint head with the flint-spearhead on the handles? they look almost the same from afar but they must be different sizes for PM to make 2 different moulds.

Check the picture I attached. (understand now finally that you did not see the pictures in my reviews, sorry it took me so long)

thanks a lot conniefrere! :love:
...you saved Tahra a bit of homework this sunday :P

I was thinking "luckily you didnt use imageshack for this"
(until I read...would it be too much to ask you to just attach such pics in your reviews for those prehistoric sets too....just repeat all pics? there are several members who similarly see only frogs like me and its so frustrating to half understand what you guys are talking about)

...so I see here, the flint has a blunt head while the 2 spear tips are more pointed...their necks look about the same diameter...are you able to confirm this by fitting the flint into the end of the spear handle?

Do you see the pics on the PROCESS? I'm quite sure I took a pic of these.. Ah - here: PIC

I'm really quite sure they will all fit in the poles.

thanks! very clear photo(luckily not imageshack or I'll go into imageshock :P)
please enlighten me Tahra...is 'PROCESS' another name for 'REPORT&REVIEW'? I cant see all imageshack photos(I've joined imageshack to no avail 8}and wont bother anymore)

you're probably right...their necks look too similar in diameters...no point PM setting diameters with such a small difference ;)

The PROCESS is me TRYING to organize my playmomountains.. I'm posting the progress (or lack of it) on this thread: link

There's pics of all the stone age stuff there too..

I usually upload pics to my site, not to third party ones. I'm a bit of a control freak, me thinks.  :-[

The PROCESS is ....this thread: link

WOH! WOOH!! where do you live Tahra?! can I come over to play...err, I mean help :P
any of your children share your interest?
your PROCESS thread is like a CNN daily news to me ;D

btw are the cavemen stickers plastic or paper only? (my viking shield stickers have started to unfurl already :'( (and I agree, the cave drawings should be playmo-style too...there's no need for realism all of a sudden)

Me thinks I need all the help I can get.. If you're ever in Portugal, gimme a call ;)

....CHILDREN!? You think I'd let THOSE around my playmobil?! Not a chance.  :lol:

I didn't put the stickers, so I really don't know of they're that "harder" type... I found them a bit weird, especially the hands. But I think we will use a few, at least...

woh! I'll need a Bed&Breakfast next door to you for a week...it'll beat going to any playmo park ;D

my kids had free access to my PM room but they were never interested even tho my daughter did collect barbies

I didn't put the stickers, so I really don't know of they're that "harder" type... I found them a bit weird, especially the hands.hands of the cavemen drawing of men? But I think we will use a few, at least...I'll stick them on my older plastic plain wigwam and pray they are washable still

Thanks for posting the parts-list!  :)

24 hour limit on post edits. Had to bring it in a while back when someone was being a bit silly. ;)

Probably one of those rare occasions it wasn't me!  ;D
(or was it?!  :eh?: )

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!
