Title: 3660 Beach Chair review
Post by: naflibomyalp on April 07, 2012, 19:27:44

Hi,
Not been up to much Playmo-stuff lately but called into my local toyshop today because it's just reopened after a long building renovation. They still had the same stock but the owner offered to make me a 'good deal'  ;)
Not one to pass up a Playmo-offer I got 3660 beach chair and 4299 wedding photographer.   ;D.
I couldn't see a review for either and whilst they have both been discontinued they have some useful pieces.

So here goes...
An overview of the box:

I like these they are great for summer only niggle is that the shade of the woman's torso does not match the rest of her body a similar problem experienced in the new ballerinas.

Some great and versatile accessories I love the pigeons and the shells.  :love:


Mixes in really well in a beach scene:

 Finally got it to work.   :)
Overall a great set with lots of potential I think I'll use it as a garden/patio seat.
I'll do the wedding one next.

I just bought this set at Tuesday Morning two days ago! It's a great set, thanks for reviewing it. Love the picture of the beach scene.

I agree, BB, the sea gulls are the best part. :love:

nice custom observation. I guess you would remove the "SUN" but what about all the stripes? Maybe change the legs to white pants or skirt  as well

The stripes could stay... Of course, a skirt - white, preferably...

I bet that would look very good and the Roman/Egyptian themes do need way more women, seems all historical themes could use way more women
