I added a better picture of the penguins to the pic-post...these are really emperor-penguins in two different poses (head up, head down) with three babies and an ice-slide. For me one of the best zoo-sets ever...  :wow: to the guys at geobra

"Then-she-standing-next-to-tipi-holding-shield-in-hand" is really a fearsome Squaw(*) ;D

When my eyes don't betraye me, he/she is having darkbrown longtrousers with darkskinned bare feet, which would be a first case (sofar these blackfeet ;D dark feet come only with lightblue, white and black longtrousers) and so this would be usefull for sailor/pirate-customs.


The "Special Plus"s are to relieve the normal specials in the asortment and they come with more accessories then the "old" specials.

The knight-theme archer is quite cool, but the accompanying superset isn't: again a re-release of an old (Viking) superset with updated klickies (and swivelling shipboard canons ??? ::) )...



(*): with the word "squaw" I just mean "woman", I've heard the word has gotten a more negative connotation in recent times (like "Eskimo" now should be "Innuit"?) but I've not intended anything negative by using this word; in my childhood (watching Westerns and playing with Playmo-Indians (**) it was just broadly considered an Indian word for "woman".

(**) with the word "Indian" I just mean "native American", I've heard the word has gotten....etc.  ;D
