**¡Aquí está el objeto misterioso número 56. Resuelto de wansell.


Esta foto muestra una "parte" de un objeto misterioso de mi vida real.


¿El desafío? - Adivina cuál es el objeto. Esta vez mi objeto misterioso pesa menos de un kilo.


(This photo shows a "part" of a mystery object from my life. The challenge? Guess what the object is .)


If you can, post in Spanish and English, and, if clues are needed I will post them "along the way" so keep your eyes "peeled". And a rule for my game friends - you can post "multiple times" of course but please - one guess per post! That gives everyone "present" a chance to have a "stab at it" and makes it easier for me to follow the thread and the answers. Thanks everyone

Wansell - enhorabuena - tienes razon. Mi objeto misterioso son gafas de seguridad. Explicaré muy pronto :o - nonombre, Aug 22, 2010
Wow! Congratulations Wansell! Good call. Don't know how you got that but good for you! - LateToDinner, Aug 22, 2010
Well spotted Wansell. - fontanero, Aug 22, 2010
Thank you. One of your pictures contained part of the strap, which closely resembles the straps on some goggles which I had. - wansell, Aug 22, 2010
I should have got it, but I didn't. - fontanero, Aug 23, 2010

This little guy stands about 4 feet tall, ~ 1200mm, and where his head attaches to the body, the foam looks like the clue in the question.

A plastic Playmobil display figure.

And to you, sir! - LateToDinner, Aug 22, 2010
Red plastic with a curve, same color of foam ...then I see the clue about fire. Should have used their fireman. Darn. - LateToDinner, Aug 22, 2010

I'm still thinking chidrens toy.

We know it relates to fire, but its not a hat or helmet.

It doesn't look like a fire truck or vehicle.

Toy fire equipment.

El equipo del fuego por niños.

Brynleigh said hat, so I assume this is wrong.

One of those plastic things for cleaning windows.

Ours have a hard edge for scraping ice, a foam piece for cleaning, and a rubber edge for removing water.

I'll find a pic and a proper name for one, and then translate.

3 in 1 ice scraper, squeegee and sponge.

(Fontanero - that seems to be the way to go, and what most people do, it's a good idea to get your "foot in the door" and then "refine" the answer later on. If I was guessing that's what I'd do :o And we all get to learn new vocab then don't we? - nonombre, Aug 22, 2010
Pero no, mi objeto misterioso no tiene nada que ver con limpieza las ventanas. :o - nonombre, Aug 22, 2010

A combination of Brynleighs and Edpantoots last answers.

A fire detector.

Detector de fuego.

I suppose you could call it -

Un detector de calor - a heat detector.
