Title: Transparent horse... catched red legged
Post by: sweetking on October 22, 2010, 22:11:02
Seen at Playmoland (near Shimokitazawa station, Tokyo).

I do believe it is a study part made by Geobra or Epoch to check the behavior of the two shot moulding process... but I could be mistaking...

Any clue to add ?

sure, many were sleeping, but 30 people already saw this message without any comment to make.

I would have really bought it, unless it wasn't part of the no for sale decoration of this shop.

It's transparent with red insert. It's not the first one I see like this, but it was the first time I have seen one by myself.

I would like to have one at home...

I haven't seen that one before. I have a white rattlesnake sent me from Malta. These kinds of tests or errors seem to show up from time to time.

Hi Friends,

ok here comes the answer:

This horses are the result for testing the horse casting mould, different colors or transparent colors to see how many air bubbels inside or how perfect work the mould.

This not official produce from playmobil this form the company where produce the
casting machine. You find it often here in germany at flea markets.
Sometimes at ebay.

The only horse that official from playmobil produced is a orange one for Siemens.
Picture 1.

At the second picture you can see some different colors from my collection !

world greets

Andi

Transparent, red, orange, multi-colored, they just all show what a design classic the old-style horse was. It can be walking, trotting, cantering, galloping, or rearing up, whatever the imagination requires.

When i see a red horse i think of Ferraris .. Very rare and interesting pictures, the old type horses are so so soooo much better than the pony new ones , they are tiny the new ones, bring back the old ones I say !!!!!!!!!!

Giroginetto ought to be put into a time capsule and be brought back to 1977. That way he could have bought all the mediaval and wernern sets he keep bitching about as well as the nuremberg guards he is almost obsessed with ... Back to 1977 , cars looked rubbish though , no proper consolde games , suits looked weird , I suppose one could say  at least thre was less pollution and errrr..  girls had hot hair styles  and mini skirts were in fashion ,  that must count for something....  :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:... apart from having great playmoibl sets that is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's very interesting Andi
I wasn't aware of the Siemens horse, the only specially colored animal I knew of was the purple and white cow for Milka.

I never saw a purple cow,
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you anyhow
I'd rather see than be one!

 :lol: Sorry. Old rhyme from my childhood. But now I've seen a purple cow!
