Playmobil® produces many birds in two versions: with wings folded and with wings spread. Nevertheless there are some animals which do not have a flying counterpart; for those Little Jo created his own variant:
"The body has been taken from the blue/yellow parrot (30 83 0080, e.g. in 3255), the wings from the flying crow (30 66 4680). The pair of wings can be used nearly unchanged. Only at the transition from the back to the tail and at the neck you have to modell a little bit with power putty (two component glue). The color has been mixed according to the original shade of the folded wings from Revel blue glossy 31152 and white silk matt 31301; after putting on a layer of primer the blue has been put on by airbrush."
