The lady's not for bending
« on: December 13, 2013, 19:42:51 »
I missed Tahra's review of the new fairy sets back in April (here: http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=12755.msg238013;topicseen#msg238013), so I was surprised when examining this klicky (from 5445) we received in a lot of figures from Malta (where else?).



She doesn't bend in the middle (she can't therefore sit, bow, or paint her own toenails!). Tahra used the apt term 'non-sitting' for this klicky design. Having popped her (something Tahra does not mention doing), I shouldn't think her body-parts (except for head and arms) will exchange with other klickies, either, except other klickies with this design, such as the fairies in 5444 and 5447, the purple lady in Mystery Series 6 and the purple fairy and Indian lady in Mystery Series 7 (the latter has a different dress shape).

The torso looks like it could be switched with swimsuit klickys? Do you have any to try it out? I'm interested to know if those torsos are the same. She is beautiful, btw.

that is weird and an unwelcome change in klickies. More that will not be interchangeable with all the others. It looks like she could almost rotate at the hips. She is a good looking klicky but I do not like the lack of movement.

And those toe nails do need painting

Is Geobra going to go back to the non twisting wrists ?

I popped the.. healer fairy? (one of those) before - in the PROCESS somewhere.

Torso is the same. Arms are FEMALE SKINNY ARMS. No, I'm not over this.


Edit: PROCESS here: LINK

Yes, the swimsuit torso is compatible with her legs, as Tahra pointed out above. I should have realised that possibility, BB. I didn't try a male torso, however....

... that looks like a distinct possibility for creating some more of Tonguello's 'X-men' (I'm still laughing about that one!)

I wondered about that too, but the prongs prevent it- mind you some ingenious customiser may find a way....

Works fine with male torsos too... Pic later....


Edit: And here's the speedo fixed skirt with a male torso. And male arms, of course (  >:( yes, I'm gonna go on mentioning this blunder until I am over it - not anytime soon, I think). My sister says he looks nice... so, who knows  ;)

very interesting looking, If the print is removed does it still has that sparkle look to it, like the old clowns w/sparkles. Do these legs w/skirt come in a normal color?

Works great as a sarong on the male figure I think - would look good on tropical island settings.

That is what I also was thinking, but to me the sparkly color is not ideal. If it was in a solid neutral color that would look better in my opinion
