Ok getting down to the netty gritty here and I need some more help.

These are the last of the figures that I cannot place a set to. Also I think that the Orca was just a direct service item, but then again it could be part of a set anyways any help would be appreciated.

As for sets that turned out to be in that lot of stuff bought at the garage sales here they are as follows:
4587
3111
4517
4592
4602
4646
4586 (x2)
3862 (only missing the sail but it has no part number on playmodb)
3110
3288 (missing a lot i.e no structure parts)
4582
4579
3890 (has all accessories, missing the figure)
4581
4583
3937 (missing all of it but where the figure is from)
3939 (all the figures, missing the majority of the set)
3055 (all the figures, missing the majority of the set)
4611
3792
4625

- Fireman
- musketeer like special

- blue could be just about anything
- looks familiar - 5305 small victorian house
- blue could be just about anything

Second row
- pirate

- king's guard
- kart or race car?

Purple dragons are not from the tower set 3665 but I think it is just another copy of set 3669 I was already able to make one complete set of this so it would make sense if it was just another copy of the same set.
Thank you, it was the smuggler from set 3035, without the hair affixed I could not place him but once I saw the image I was like I should have known. They say you can remember someone by their eyes, for me you can remember playmobil by its hair lol.
Orca and boy are from set 3865

Nice work, keep it up!

If there is more from Direct Services in your lot and the collector had access to this service, then the extra Purple Dragon Knights might be from there as well (7123, 7671 7672).

The first figure on the top row is a Western one! Its from 3747 Gold Hunters- not in PlaymoDB but shown here on PF

Those four dragon knights are from two sets. The three on the right are another copy of 3669. The one on the left with purple torso is from 3665. If you look at the cover art for that set he's the one riding the horse .

Yes, the brown woman is from 5322, she's the kitchen maid/cook.
Purple woman with pink shoes is the wife of the brown man from 5303. I have that set.
