Ghost costume- is this new?
« on: February 06, 2013, 19:34:37 »
The free gifts we had with our most recent Playmobil DS orders were sets 6252 (a sort of multi-sport boy) and 6253 (a girl). Very nice little sets (and IMO better than the games usually supplied as free gifts) made up of pretty standard parts, apart from the black ghost costume (pictured) in 6252. I thought I had seen this before, but cannot find it in playmoDB. Any suggestions as to where this has featured before? It's the same mold as the child's costume in 3027 - Big & Little Ghost Trick-Or-Treaters but different printing.

I THINK the printing is different, yes...

This one is the same mould too:
4574 - Purple Spirit

Is the black shroud (my picture) in a recent set? I find it hard to believe PM would produce the part specifically for a give-away.
