I think a few already heard of it:

there is a new Book+Figur collection by De Agostini.
Each set include a Book and a Playmobil figure. There 50 Books, but only about 24 figures are known for now...

looks very interesting, especially when you see what themes are coming to which the figure is missing in the picture :)

Maybe someone else has more infos? Especially about the figures that will come!?!

Wow, what great figures! Any idea where in the world (apart from Spain?) they will be available?
I counted 27 figures here. I wonder if they will do female figures too (Płaymobil magazine in UK is targeted at boys and has only male figures, but Germany has magazines with female figures)?

That is the mag that copied shamelessly pirateclick's Troubadour.

AFAIK, it is a limited release in Spain - testing the waters. That lame company is famous for not completing their series. First (and second, sometimes) volumes are usually a good deal. After that, it is expensive as Hades, harder to find, and sometimes they just don't complete it. 

I wouldn't mind having the first black knight (2.99, I think).. But I THINK it was 6 after, and 8 for the rest, so... Besides, I don't particularly like reading in spanish, so it would be kinda pointless. Thouh they ARE pretty.

These Collections will be available in Spain and in France.


I also have a pic with a overview about the 50 books that will be available, but I'm not able to upload that picture, cause the size of it is more about 100kb (and if I make it less than 100kb you can't read it anymore).

I think there won't be any female figures, the other seems are for example:
- Marco Polo
- the old china
- Mongoles
- Mayas
- Legends of old Japan
- The wise men of Athen
- The King of Mespotamien
etc... so most themes for male figures.
