Hello :wave:
Can anyone tell me where these folk come from please. The man came in an ebay lot that arrived yesterday, and the boy has stood on my specials shelf for years and I have been meaning to ask about him for ages.
The man looks familier but I have no clue on the boy.
Thanks
Damo :)

Thanks Playmo1989! - I thought he was a special and had scanned the picture list on PlaymoDB, but no wonder I didn't spot him under all those clothes and at night ;)
The boy is different from the one in set 3256, he has red trousers and shoes - mine has blue trousers and no shoes :-\
-
perhaps somebody changed the trousers !!!! it's the only set that i know which boy has this shirt realesed in 2001 and discontiniud in 2002 . it might was realesed again but i haven't seen it anywhere else !!!! the man's shirt is very famous first was realesed with the 3666 castle in one clicky but with different trousers hair ..... the one you have is from the special !!!!!!!!!!!

Is the boy also blue at the bottom back section where his legs connect?
If it's red there, then you know he has had a leg swap and originally had red legs.
Unless the person who had him before knows how to fully disassemble a child figure and swapped that part out too - that's something I have yet to master. :-[

Yes his bottom is blue! everything blue :-\

perhaps someone changed the back also if you remove the head it is all taken apart and you can put any legs you like

Possibly, but I don't know why anyone would go to such lengths - I don't even know how to take a child Klicky apart :-\
-
It's far easier, only the klicky description title in the db isn't precise AND
the tell-tale pirate shirt design can't be seen properly on the set box cover.
Here he is:
30 10 0520 - Boy with orange shirt with critter on it (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30%2010%200520)
-
he is from that boat!!!!!! wow :o :o :o :o :o :o :o and i wanted to buy it recently but it is not at all on ebay :( :( :( :( :(
-
Just another classic issue of playmobil reusing half klicky parts for different sets....

Thanks Playmofool :)
critter :hmm:
I have got that boat so he will go with that.

Well, I never tried, but, theoretically, the Spanish (rubber) method will do without any problems ... As a child, playmo children where the first ones I got taken apart ... Common adult klickys where really hard to do it, and I didn't know any methods by then (but would, I believe, have made both easily ... I always had some dexterity with them! :yup: )

Another way is the way Junior showed in 'How to' - 'Beheading Children' (sorry but I don't know how to do a link to that)

Here's how Elaine.
Go to Playmofriends home page (it's always best to do searches from here as it covers all the forums) and in Search type "beheading". This brings up two topics, this one and Junior's. Click on Junior's to open in a new tab. Highlight and copy the web address at the top of the page, then type your reply to this post and paste the link in. Here it is:

Now you try.

Thanks Playmofool :)

:doh: Well, I couldn't tell what kind of a thingie it was, when I only had the blurry black-and-white picture, but neglected to update it when I received his portrait (taken by Playmofool by the way, thanks!). His Klicky details are correct, though, so he could have been found via Who's That Klicky: Age = C, Sex = M, Torso_colour = Yellow, Leg_colour = Blue, Footwear_style = Bare feet (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/whoami.pl?age=c;sex=m;torso_colour=yellow;leg_colour=blue;footwear_style=bare%20feet;). I'll change his description, thanks for bringing it up.
Speaking of the boat, what colour is 30 05 6200 - Scarf, tied loosely (http://playmodb.org/cgi-bin/showpart.pl?partnum=30-05-6200) from that set? I can't see it on the box picture.

I would also be interested to know because I am now trying to complete this set now that I know the boy goes with it :)
BTW, I don't know ;D

Thank you for this link, Elaine! :-*
I was away in Australia when Junior first posted the topic and missed reading it until now! His method is brilliant! :D
