New 2025 (Jul-Dec)
Rasputin:
Hmmm,
I’m surprised, they certainly could have squeezed more pinks, purples and pastels into the new releases somewhere.
Also there is a bit too much realism in the lineup. These need way more fantasy elements to get as far away from the original Playmobil brand principals as possible.
The Meme of the new AI program is making more sense across the board
I do look forward to the surprise bags, just wish it wasn’t a mystery so I could get many multiples of certain Klickies
PlaymoMan:
A little mystified as to where the brand goes from here. Honestly I'm not sure if I've ever been this uninspired by a batch of new releases. The mini cars are truly dreadful. The superheroes line is generally unimpressive. Sky Trails is vaguely intriguing but overall it seems awfully bare bones. It's difficult to see how it could be sustainably positioned as a flagship theme ("the most exciting play innovation of the year" according to the press release?)
Very little innovation happening in "legacy" product lines as well, like police and pirates, which have been pretty drastically reduced in scope. It's unfortunate to see. The Asterix theme looks good, and there are few other interesting items scattered throughout, but broadly I am underwhelmed and a little (maybe more than a little) concerned about Playmobil's trajectory.

You're correct! Well I still like her
klickyklack:
Well, some of them are going to have to jump in my cart when they come out, but overall it's all a bit underwho.
Liking the look of
71879: Día de los Muertos
71834: Winged Superhero
71838: Fairy Home with Golden Unicorn
& 71843: Fairy with Unicorn 'Lucky Lavender
But wish the fairies had the regular style faces
