Thank you for the list!

Thanks for that Jim. Sounds like more Wiltopia but not another major new location based theme for this year. Hopefully they will sell well and we get  that for 2024

Also interesting to see what's not there. The Citroen for instance.

Secretly hoped for more pirate items than seen in the catalogs, but was a long shot.
The carry case listed got my hopes up and then realised already have that one.

That flaming wheeled cannon is awful. Least the pirate skeleton in June, hoping can get that from DS.

My other child is just a bit too old for the 123 sets which is a real shame. I hope the Winnie the Pooh range are tasteful.

Playmobil should stay out of politics. I don't think climatology or environmentalist march are good for young children. They're too young to understand the points and could be a cause of alarm for them.

I think it meant that the environmentalist comes out in March. Probably a figure with plants and scientific tools. I really doubt that Playmobil would release a protester with sign and bullhorn.

The one they are calling environmentalist is a botanist. They did have a Figures series female with a drumstick and a tin can and mud on their legs. I assume that one was a protester but nothing with it to indicate what they are protesting.

Maybe something lost in translation then. The early boxed sets did show at least one scene with protesters and placards.

And here I was hoping for a Playmo Greta Thunberg!  :rudy:

In plastic? How dare you! Maybe a figure for the wiltopia range.

A klicky Greta Thunberg, leading a protest against plastic would be iconic and ironic!

The rainbow castle set sounds at this point like an 'echo' of Lego's Cloud Cuckoo Land from their second movie.

Didn't watch the second, I think... Googled it... it's... well.. I suppose Fritz Tomé must have a sibling there?

I'd like to see a Playmo Cloudcuckooland theme based on the original source, namely Aristophanes  :roman:

It would go down in the history books of box art similar to the hippy chick pushing the biker dude off the cliff & the cop about to grab the drunk hobo sitting on a park bench

Are you saying that Asterix could be released in the US in mid year ?

Those are must have sets and I’ve been very reluctant to get them from Greek scalpers on EvilBay

No, just that the next wave is being released in Europe then. I got my Asterix sets off kidinn. Their postage is all over the place but for larger items I found them reasonable but only when ordering a couple of items at a time.

I got mine through eBay; pricey, but I wanted them for Xmas. They are a delight & worth the bother. I'm currently waiting for the 2nd foil bag with Graindemais.

Thanks for the link!

The Naruto cafe looks interesting

I have no interest in horse-related things, but it does look like it has the 'western' sash window in brown, which I guess might be useful.

The cloud-rainbow castle looks remarkably restrained colour-wise!

I like the look of the school, but I always like those modern buildings and rarely get them just because of space

A lame return, imo... I mean.. you paint the car?

Still.. nice white parts (speaking as someone with null artistic abilitys, I will not deface them :P )

I am still VERY upset with the heli. :'(

I quite like the colour sets - I never really 'got' the original ones, but I think the fashion designer one works well (especially if they sell extra skirts and dresses on Playmobil Plus). I'm skeptical about how good they will look in practice when they've been coloured in by kids, but that was always the draw back

Not the best images so I will reserve final judgement until I can see them better. That new horse though, not well sculpted looking at all from these pictures.
The cloud forms are nice and could be used with the Greek Gods.

The guy in the zebra suit is...unique. An interesting reuse of the unicorn head mold from Everdreamerz.

The 2022 Wiltopia and Novelmore sets were beautifully planned and executed. 2023 looks lame and slapdash. The management disruptions are clear.

Hadn't seen Graindemais before, nice.
