HANGER, MEXICAN CHRISTMAS FIGURE
(Retail US$17.00 $11.90 Sale 30% OFF)
With the Posada ceremonial
completed, the piñata party begins. This
unique custom is also a familiar part of the
Christmas observance throughout the southwest U.S.
Usually the piñata is suspended from the
branch of a tree. Decorated with streamers and
tinsel, it is exceedingly colorful and often shows
great imagination in design. Each child is
blindfolded, whirled around several times, and then
given a big stick. Its often requires many a whack
and an equal number of "misses" before the blow is
made that cracks the piñata. Then comes the
grand scramble for the goodies, trinkets of every
description, and naturally candy and
fruits.
These are unpainted
and unassembled metal hobby kits.
Unless otherwise noted, these kits are in the
International 54mm
Collectors Scale. Standing figurines are approx.
2-1/2" - 3" tall.
