When did series four of the Naruto theme come out? Hardly anyone is stocking this and I don't see any real effort to promote it despite the massive Naruto fanbase around the world, arguably a lot more important than the ones that watch the bug programme. Is anyone collecting those? Some of them look interesting but they seem meh overall given the price like the turtle guy and I think skunk girl would be better if smaller.
I think that’s one of Playmobil’s many current problems. They’re relying too much on the series format instead of the generic style they’ve had for years. It’s sad to see later generations stomp over the previous because of incompetence. Them removing the iconic moulded faces is the biggest indicator of this. The whole point of which was to stop the faces from disappearing after repetitive use—and guess what these newer, painted klickies will face in the long run?
Talk about a spit in the face. I knew Germany was gonna shoot itself in the foot when they got rid of their nuclear energy which led to them going back to coal, ironically a more harmful energy source in the process. But I guess production of Playmobil and other products are really showing how that’s biting them in the rear end. Quality has gone down and price has gone up, sets vanish way too fast, and there’s too many gimmicks.
Unless they clean their acts up soon or what have you, which they most likely won’t, Playmobil’s days look numbered…
I’ll possibly be going to China after their new year so I’ll be inquiring about high-tech injection capabilities
Do tell us your findings when you do. I’m gonna go look for some home injection mould machines.
Here’s a site to begin looking at if anyone else is interested:
