I actually have one of the ladies from 3923, no idea where she came from. I guess they were given to my siblings in a mixed lot at some point.

Pingo, you should send Heather playmodb@gmail.com the picture of the 3923 box as there isn't one in PlaymoDB!

Post by: Tiermann on October 09, 2022, 20:19:32: Thanks for posting the box backs! The dioramas are always wonderful from that era. Congratulations on the finds

Post by: Klickteryx on October 09, 2022, 20:26:27: The scene of the female acrobat holding the clown sideways doesn't look possible. That blue stand would have to be anchored into the ground I think. At least the klickys back then were stiff enough to hold weight in their arms.

Post by: Oliver on October 09, 2022, 21:14:07: Thanks for the backs - it was so much better when they used to use a variety of sets to make dioramas for the boxes/catalogues

Post by: Janilew on October 10, 2022, 07:32:59: Congratulations! The knife-wielding set always was appealing to me. Shame Playmobil never released another, though I'm sure I know why...

I would like to remind everyone that expressions of blatant coulrophobia are not permitted on Playmofriends! P)

You are right, Klickteryx! I had to use Blutac to hold her in place...
