Title: Special Series 4525 - Trick Shooter
Post by: Heronimus on December 01, 2012, 08:59:03
I got this from ebay and it is probably reissued as a giveaway in around year 2000 I suppose. It is called the Trick Shooter on collectobil, though he could easily join the cowboy gangs, dressiest one of course. This is my first review on PF, as living in Hong Kong, there is no way I can become the first batch of people getting new stuffs, so I am here reviewing the new old stuffs I obtain.

This is how it comes, with a clear and typical transparent package for the giveaways.

Look at how many things are coming along with him. Geobra was so generous giving us 5 guns instead of just two.

Wow!!! This one guy in the mirror is the most handsome, although his face is not quite symmetrical.

This is it! Though Geobra was not as technologically advanced as today, they are releasing some really special special, instead of just combining all their parts on hand. The white and red colour scheme just amazing, and the patterns printed on the hat and chest are both really cool. Hope you guys like him. :love: :love: :love: :love:

He is quite a nice fellow yes, but I am pretty sure hes from a few years earlier than 2000. Quite a fancy cowboy that would do quite well at a circus, or as a rich land owner in western.

Wonderful pictures and a great review!  He reminds me of my cowboy heroes from the 50's.  :lol: They always got the bad guys.

I like this guy too! We bought him on a PM fair, just the clicky without the accessories. That mirror looks great  :)

Thanks you all. The rifle is especially wonderful. I have recently been discussing with my colleagues about the playmobil. They start to love the figures and one of them has already purchased 500 Euro worth of playmobil in the first week. They love the rifles, it is so great Geobra differentiates rifles and hand guns with different design. VERY SOPHISTICATED.

Great review, thank you  :wave:
It's good to see a review on one of the older sets, it has reminded me of something that I have missed out on.
This is one special I will need to start looking out for.
