20014 Sunbather

The Sunbather was made in 1970 and was always painted with red and white
pants before 1978. In 1978 we can see that Schleich painted the sunbather with
yellow and black pants, and the Schleich catalogue from 1979 shows the green
and black pants. probably they started with these colours the same time in
1978. The red and black are seen on Smurfland-posters and could be a BP-
or UK variation. It seems that late marking-variations usually are painted
with green and black pants.
