Japanese with bent 'hockey-player" arms
« on: November 17, 2015, 16:22:48 »
finally fitted hands on those bent elbows from the new hockey players ;D

I am still against bending klicky arms and have lamented for years for bent arms and knees from Geobra.

now I patiently wait for the right colors to come along for my medieval Asians....however its going to be expensive....I dont know if I will buy many but you will agree that they look fine....

I purposely exposed more of their wrists (sleeves are usually 'shorten'/pulled back a bit when arms are bent)

I know I should rub those white stripes off but oh, sooooo painful to....they are nicely printed

Thank you Tahra!!!!!!!

Cheng, thank you for so splendidly satisfying my curiosity!
Was wondering how those arms would look.
You're really getting good at this ...  ;)

Those look very good considering what you had to do to make them work.
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

if Geobra makes more klickies with bent elbows, they will start to look just as 'playmobil' as Super 5  ;D
....I have been expecting  bent arms from a golfer or baseball special long before Fi?ures came to be...not at all disappointed...

so versatile, these 2 arms, the samurai using the hockey players's right arm
and the samurai using his left arm, depicting different stages after releasing the strings of the bows

thanks and a little trivial pursuit question for you, Klickteryx;
which klicky is this skirt from?
(I've been waiting for another suitable pattern for a new samurai but still waiting....I think this is the only acceptable pattern and color amongst the thousands of klickies Playmobil has released till today ;) ;) ;) )
