Ah yes, after school on Thursday I had a lovely suprise waiting for me, my parcle from the collectors club had arrived! The parcle was decorated with pretty sylvanian stickers which I have peeled of and put on some sticker paper.
So here is the back of the parcle with four big stickers and one small one of Coco Chocolate.
So this here was the story that I won with. You had to include 8 or more words from a list that you were given, I used the words garden, keeping warm, winter, cold, friends, love, decoration set. These words are in a bigger font so you can see them.
So here are the two school friends and I was very excited to open the box and let the critters out (As usual)
In this picture i have just lifted them out of the box and on the left you can see the collection catalouge which I like to collect but sadly I already have three of this type of catalouge so it will have to go into the double ups pile.
First of all here is the little girl which is actually not that little since all of the figures that I have recived in october last year and onwards have been bigger that the ones before =(.
Here is the boy and I was rather suprised when his tail was so flat like a beavers except that it was fluffy. I hope it will thicken up and unfold over time.
The back packs. I am really dissapointed with them. They are made out of hard plastic which scratches the figures hands when they are put one which is a bit trickey.
When you open them they look like this and I am unsure of the purpose of the hole in the middle of the front. Is it so you can thread something through or just to save plastic or something else!?
There is also not much space in the backpacks but this is how they look on from the front.
Here is from the back. I have also discovered that it is very hard to stand figures up which do not have tails which go to the ground to support the weight of the empty back pack.
Here are the shoes. I really do wonder why they are not the same colour of the ones in the photo though. They are also made of hard plastic and have rough edges.
So I put them on and I have no idea if you can see this but it leaves a dent in the foot after you first put it on because of th rough edges. Also when they made the figures bigger and the feet bigger they forgot to make the shoes bigger so they are hard to put on on a new figure.
This is what the girl will now look like and her name is Rosie while the boys name is Harrison. Rosie is 13 while Harrison in 14.
Even though I am not truely happy with this set I did win it and I am still happy and gratefull about it. I will probably not use the backpacks though but the shoes are displayed in the shoe shop and no one in the village actually wears shoes on a regular baisis. This review was made for all those who are considering to buy this set. Rosie and Harrison are now very eager to meet their new adopting parents until I am able to get their true families. By the way, are you liking Quick Tutorial Thursdays?
