Title: Grey sideburns
Post by: Ismene on February 18, 2022, 09:23:03
Is Theodor Fontane the only klicky with grey sideburns? I checked PlaymoDB, and this is the only one I'm seeing.

I wanted to say some Western bandits have grey sideburns, but then realised they're all either brown or black. I hope someone with more extensive knowledge might come up with something for you!

That's consistent with what I'm finding. I have brown from Sherlock and black from a western mystery figure. I know blond sideburns were also made.

Theodor Fontane (https://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showinv.pl?setnum=9326) has light grey sideburns.

Yes, but I don't really want to pay $14 for some sideburns.

Sorry, I now see that my previous post was redundant, as you already knew. I *think* these are the only grey sideburns, and they aren't even properly grey!

Perhaps you could opt for the facial hair of the Movie Series 1 Figure's Sheriff (https://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-76-7068)? That should be more affordable, and is proper grey.

I don't mind light grey. I'll keep the movie sheriff in mind as a possibility. I prefer the more classic look on Fontane, but the movies figures should be more accessible in the US (maybe - I haven't looked). There's a Maltese seller on Ebay advertising light blue. I don't understand why or how. I'm tempted to buy them, although they'd look pretty weird.  :lol:

Those are from a ghost butler type from ghostbusters...

Ah, that makes sense. I must have missed that set when looking at the Ghostbusters theme. I am trying to diversify my Victorians, but a ghostbutler might be going too far.
