lol I wish they were taking the adult collector market seriously
No acknowledgement of the large number of adults who love and collect PM and have done so long before the recent License themes.

...BTTF adult collectors collect... BTTF. Yes, you may (and do) catch some BTTF collectors with BTTF playmo sets.

My apologies, I swallowed a dictionary when I was a child!
I wonder about how many hard-core collectors there are of toys/ figures from particular themes.
Star Wars, yes. Lord of the Rings / Hobbit, yes. Harry Potter, yes.

I don't know. I guess research into online fan groups would reveal how many people are fans of these themes. Perhaps Playmobil did such research. Or perhaps they are picking up scraps of newly available licences after Lego has had their pick.
Being called a kidult doesn't fill me with confidence to be loud or proud!

The first time I got an appointment to tour the Playmobil booth, for coverage for my toy blog, they really didn't know what to do with me.

I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you. haha
I believe I said something like "that Top Agents secret mountain base will be mine... oh yes"
