DC Kinder Playmobil in the UK

Thanks for the photos and details of your 'hit rate.'
It is good to see more details of the figures, though the quality looks shockingly poor (about right for Kinder surprise though). Are these endorsed by Playmobil or merely lookee-likees? It doesn't look as if the hair is detachable, even.

The packaging is branded Playmobil, making it as astonishing mis-step if the aim was to introduce the brand to people who wouldn't otherwise have come across it (I suppose within mainland Europe this is less of an issue and people may make the 'discount' for it being in a Kinder surprise egg).

As Oliver has already said, yep, they're official Playmobil (I photographed the back to show the logo in the indented section down their spine) + DC & Playmobil is all over the packaging.
I don't think the hair or masks (on the ones with masks) are detachable.
Maybe it's because I'm a big comic book fan & worked in a comic book shop for a big chunk of my 20's, but I think they're really cool & I'm sure other DC fans will be loving them too :-[ :lol: they have so many neat details that I think are new to the Playmobil kids (hair styles) & character specific details that are really fun like the scale detail on Aquaman's torso & fins on the back of his legs & side of his arms, a little raised heart on Harley's neckline, clear lenses on Catwoman's mask. They could have really dialed it in, but I think they've made some effort with them honestly.
I'm not sure why they have the holes going through their heads - I assume they might be so people can use them as bag accessories/charms!? ???
Pynedor:
It's too bad that the parts are not interchangeable with the ordinary figures.
Do the capes fit well on normal child figures?
