“These were all hand painted designs.... and therefore labor intensive. When these came out in 1956 TLG used to hire "home workers" (Heimarbeiter in German)... stay at home mom's who wanted pocket money.... who in their spare time painted these figures with TLG supplied... More plastic figures and paints. Once a week or so a TLG employee would go around to all the home workers, and pick up completed inventory, and distribute unpainted new models and paints.”
