What a great topic!  I love the all Playmobil animals and am very likely to buy any new animal that is offered, whether I need it or not.   :-[

So far, my favorite suggestion is bats!  I love bats!  I mean, I really love bats, even real ones.   :)

German Shepherd examples:





I agree about bats, they would be great to have for Halloween too. After all L#%@ has had bats for years...

I like antelope too - Kudu would be nice

I think that Playmobil has done lots of great animals, but there's  one that I'd like to see added, and that's the platypus   :yup:. It would make a great set with an Australian Outback/platypus enthusiast with a camera and a platypus shirt. The platypus could have a opening beak, and a flipper that could bend using the technology from the bendable snake in 4843, http://store.playmobilusa.com/on/demandware.store/Sites-US-Site/en_US/Product-Show?pid=4843&cgid=Schatzjaeger. It could be packaged as a Special or as part of an outback series.

Hi tonguello :wave:
A platapus is a aquatic mammal that has a beak  and flippers like a duck and a body with fur. Strangely, it lays eggs instead of giving birth to live young. It's not a very common or well known animal, which is probably why Playmobil hasn't made one yet.

Wow, ace, you really know your stuff! One thing about the platypus, though, it's illegal to export one from australia, so you'll never get to see one in a zoo outside australia. :(

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

The platypus is a nice idea but they are pretty small to be doing moving parts on.

Also like most things from Australia they are venomous, the males have poisoned spurs on their hind legs.
