Zirndorf is NOT going to be happy ... 

The moveable legs are interesting, but not very well designed.

Playmobil's design was much better (see attached photo)

Thanks, Andi!

All the best,
Richard

The figure looks pretty funny, but I wouldn't mind having the front loader.

They didn't even bother to change the little pictures next to the figure
But you're right there Ben, the front loader looks nice.

Sure Zirndorf don´t will be happy... BUT the motor can maybe be  build inside the original yellow work engin from Playmobil and the engin operated by remote control, with a little very little changes of pieces.

To Richard, I would like see the inside parts off legs from your sherif. When Playmobil deposed a patent in France, this inclued a possibility of moved legs, but I never see one of this on the Playmobil market. I mind your is not original. If you´re the owner of this, can sure show us this detail. You can see a french version of this patent on my web side and see this detail on the one side of document ( You need to clic on the sentence and wait that Adobereader finish to download ).

You can see one prototyp too ( on the web side too, clear blue ), a first version with 2 separat legs... but it was a prototype and the design was different. The only next version of separat moving legs are the football serie 30 years later and it is not a same technic...

Hello, TJ ...

Thank you for the link to your French Playmobil klicky with the moveable legs.

Wooowww!!! Thank you Richard

Great pics, I´m very surprised from this. The technic about a hinge is not a secret and I mind that a good customizer can do it. But when I see the under side of foot, like this I NEVER see ( and I can tell you... I know a lot of first version... ).

I go to look your pics again...

Thanks!

i hate this..........cheap trash
Why we had a copyright

Some of the china stuff had a CE mark !
I dont know why this stuff can get this mark
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CE_mark

But i think this CE mark was a copy , too !
