Odd with the round collar and a beard, always pushes the beard way up the face.  Still, nice looking figure.

In Belgium? I searched and searched, but I couldn’t find info about it, do you have the specific words or link? I can check it out :-) I saw that there was a link on amc that goes to a Dutch page, but I wasn’t able to find more info there as well...

Love the print on his cap.  I was expecting an eskimo ((http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/Smileys/classic/doh.gif)) but this is a really nice figure. He's not military but he makes me want a series with military personnel in formal dress.

Hartelijk dank voor uw e-mail aan Iglo.

U heeft een vraag over Iglo en Playmobil. Later deze maand lanceren wij in
België een Captain Iglo promotie, waarbij een Playmobil figuurtje verkregen
kan worden. Meer details worden te zijner tijd bekend gemaakt, onder andere

I suppose, no chance to get it from Germany, so no coop for me.  ;D

But this time I am the one, who WANT IT badly!!!

Where are our Belgium members for doing a coop?

Please!!

Depending on the conditions of the promotion, it might be possible to organise a coop. The problem in my case for example is, that my girlfriend and I are both vegan and I can imagine you'll have to buy multilple boxes of fishsticks to be able to gain the Captain... That means that someone who is willing to organise a coop will stay with a bunch of fishsticks... We will see...

If we could get it without the fishsticks ... I´m not veggie but I rarly eat fishsticks (in contrary to cookies).  :-\
I´ll ask around with other belgian collectors once the figure becomes available, perhaps someone loves the Iglo-products and will buy a whole bunch...

And a small warning: belgian postal service is very expensive. Keeps me sometimes from sending even a single klicky abroad.   :(
Title: Re: 9143 - Captain Iglo
Post by: tahra on September 04, 2018, 20:45:07
True, this sort of promotion will be a lot more complicated to handle.. especially in numbers...

Thanks for looking into it :)

Maybe you could post notices where normal shoppers will see them asking for the klicky. There must be plenty of people who buy the food but don't want the klicky.

The figures are available in the Belgian supermarkets! You have to buy 3 Iglo products and you’ll get the figure immediately. I will check it tomorrow!

Are you in the mood to eat some Igloo products? <hint> I'd be glad to help you fill your cupboard.  :P  :wave:

Post by: Daniela on September 07, 2018, 16:30:47
I love the fishsticks and would also eat them.  :love:

But shipping them with the figure would be a little bit tooo much trouble.

I am willing to pay for buying 6 packs to get 2 figures. No problem.   ;)
Title: Re: 9143 - Captain Iglo
Post by: Hadoque on September 07, 2018, 17:15:11
I just checked the Iglo website, and it is announced you get a free captain when buying 3 packs of their breaded fish-products,  not when it includes one (or more) of their other fish-products/-packs...
So it would concern only these products:

https://www.iglo.be/nl-be/producten/vis-en-zeevruchten/gepaneerde-vis

They also don´t say where/how to get the figure, like if one gets it in the supermarket along with the 3 packs or if the packs will contain a code or something to send to the company.

The figures are placed next to the freezers, you have to pick 3 Iglo products (which are valid for the promotion) and 1 figure. At the momemt they are available in some AD Delhaizes already. Unfortunately not in Deinze yet, maybe you'll make a chance in Ghent, Hadoque...
Title: Re: 9143 - Captain Iglo

How much would it be, do you know?

In English:
1 Captain Iglo Playmobil for free*, when you buy 3 breaded Iglo fish products of choice
*While stock lasts / Check the conditions in the flyer

=> I didn't find the flyer on their website, I guess they refer to the retailers' flyers.

Looks like the company will end up with surplus klickies. Perhaps they will be willing to sell them to PM Collectors? The PCC staffers could negotiate such a deal... oh no, perhaps not!

Someone in the Playmobil World Facebook group has offered to do a co-op for Captain Iglo; I'm sure she got lots of responses! I've "ordered" 2 of them. Here are some pics she's posted on FB.

In some supermarkets the sets are displayed like on the picture JLMatterer posted and you are allowed to pick them yourself in accordance with the amount of fishsticks you buy, in others the sets are not on display but you get them at the checkout when paying for your groceries.

So far, I had no luck to get a few for free, in my Carrefour supermarket (where you pick them yourself out of the displayed ones) the amount of sets I take is carefully controled at the checkout-counter, and in the Delhaize and the Okay supermarkets I get the sets at the checkout-counter when making my payment. I asked kindly if it were possible to have/get 1 more in addition to the amount of fishsticks bought "because I know a nice kid thats collects Playmobil" ;D , but the personel has no mercy at all, seems like they all got very strict instructions to not give one more then officially allowed ...
