Funko is probably paying a license fee to Playmobil for the style and construction of the figures.

Rumor has it that they'll be 6" tall which will make them pretty useless.
What's the point of having famous characters in klicky form if they can't interact with actual Playmobil sets and figures?

Doctor Who has also been rumored to be part of that line. It would have been nice to have the Doctor travel throughout the various Playmo themes, but not if he's twice the size... 8}

My issue is that only 2 turtles are portrayed. There are four - it is uncalled for to only make 2 and not the other 2! :) (Referring to the TMNT ones).

IF they did do those, and keep it at 2.5 inches, bend at the waist, I might get the Willy Wonka and the turtles ones (Oompa Loompa should have had the same build as a dwarf/child klicky... he looks like a giant when standing by Willy Wonka).

Sigh...

I can see Funko licensing the look. They've been doing that... buying up smaller, designer lines, then footing the bill to pay for the licenses, and then making a ton of money. This fits their MO.

This is not in line with playmobil's traditional "no licensee" stance... but they've already broken that rule with the NHL and Porsche.  I can see them doing this, I'm a little disappointed.

Honestly, I'd love it to be a hoax, but there was too much effort put into this for a typical hoaxer.

I was planning on sitting out Toy Fair this year, but maybe I need to go to get to the root of this. From the source.

Although I hate the idea... I'd probably still buy them (except the Walking Dead ones) because it is Playmobil.

I'd buy them, but only if they were the normal size.

That's where I am with it... It would be cool to have the TMNT (all of them) in my collection.
