And... hmm... perhaps those high hats of the child-elves (the yellow and red one with the dots) could fit an adult female klicky... have some kind of custom in mind...

So, could someone let me know the partnumbers for these hats? Thx in advance!

Looks like that there is a possibility that the high hats might make very nice ancient Persian hats ... :eh?:

Thanks for the excellent scan of the part numbers, Sylvia!

Yes, that's also a good possibility. Personally I was thinking about using them for 16th Century Royal Court Ladies, the Elisabeth II- period. But it all depends on how good the hats fit and what they look like on an andult-klicky's head...

Resistance is futile, you will be boarded!

Hats loading into PlaymoDB shortly!  Perhaps someone could scan (and even inventory, hm?) some of these new sets so we all can have a look, pretty please?

Below is the list of recently-appeared sets for which I don't have instructions.  I realize a lot of them aren't even for sale yet, but I can't tell when they appear in the stores so I'll just put them all here.  I may have missed some, so check new sets when you buy them to see if I need sheets from any of them!

I'd be happy to scan and list all the parts for each of the 6 fairy sets. Should have time to work on it early next week. :)

Do you have a preferred resolution for the scans, Heather?

Thanks Jochen and Sylvia!  I've made a link on the main page to the current wishlist (under You Can Help), and taken both your pledges off of it.  Looking forward to them!  As for resolution: it depends.  The higher the better, of course; it's easier to shrink with good results than to expand.  All the little pictures are 100 pixels high, so you can test your scan in any paint program by selecting a box around a small part and seeing if the box is that high.  If it isn't, then the scan is still useful but the part-pictures won't look so good.

Just a couple extra notes for scanners: most scanning software has a "Moire"or "Magazine" setting that will reduce the dottiness of those gradated backgrounds - worth experimenting with.  JPG files, one per page, preferred, but PDFs or other graphic formats are manageable.  Don't cut off or omit the part on the (usually) last page with the part number and date of the instructions themselves on it - I need that to catalog them properly.  Finally, optional but terrific if you're up to it, would be a clear photo or scan of the klickys without accessories, so I can put them into "Who's That Klicky"!

Again, thanks so much to all volunteers!

Cheers, Heather

Hi,

I've also bought each of the six Feenwelt sets, but I'm still waiting for them to arrive. So excited!! :D

There was absolutely no way I could wait until next year to get these. :love:
How did you order the sets from
Germany? Is there some way you
can order from Germany or did you
get them some other way? I hope
you can order directly from Germany
because those new pirates are really
nice  ;D

Hi,
 How did you order the sets from
Germany?

I bought them from a German eBay seller. The listing was a set price "Buy It Now" item, not an auction, and the seller accepted PayPal so that made payment very easy for me. :)

The shipping cost was also very reasonable (12.50 Euros for all six sets) and it took the parcel only a few days to reach me. Everything was well packed and in perfect condition, so I was very happy with the transaction and would not hesitate to buy from them again. :yup:

I checked the retail prices of the sets at playmobil.de before deciding to buy, and the eBay seller was selling them slightly cheaper than the official website. Even with S&H added, it worked out to be a good deal and very likely cheaper in total than if I waited and bought them in the UK next year (since UK Playmo prices are always a bit higher than Germany). 8-)

This seller was only shipping within Europe, but if you check eBay you will probably find others willing to send to the US. :)
