Series 2 for boys released!!!
There are already photos in Klickywelt.
Guitarist, convict and skater have a rotating head just like the TwoFace agent.
A sample from user hohajo...
-
Cool! I didn't know there were klickys with rotating heads! :woohoo:
-
Oh!!! That is great news! :yippee: :yippee: :yippee: So we aren't stuck with those ugly sneers!
-

That is cool.

Thank you for bringing us this info :)

Me too! :)
Good we're not stuck with those ugly mugs... Of course, from my experience with that top agent, we need long hair so the horrid thing isn't visible from the back...
-
that hair peace would be perfect for a ronald mcdonald custom or what u think?
-
I dont like these hairdos :hmm: :hmm:. god is this what sells today ??? ??? ??? ???
-
this is great news! thank you for the info! you made my day! :love:
-

punk rocker hairstyle george ;) ;D ;D
-
the head rotates?!? :hmm: gosh, no comment...
-
Series 2 for girls released as well!!!
Only Vampy girl has rotating head.
One more sample from Klickywelt and user Playmo-Erwin...
-
probably Captain America also has a rotating head but could not confirm so far...
-
This is a great feature. Would like to see it done with something other than the Lego sneer/smile.
-

i asked playmobil and said that they all have a rotating head,t see how it will go with stickers and so.
-
I LOVE the Geisha. Glad that SHE doesn't have a rotating head. ::)
-
my favorite is the pirate , cant wait to have one or more, because of the crytal skull :) ;) ;)
ryan
-
That skull might work nicely with an Indianna Jones custom. ;D
-
i want it for my eldorado thingie
-
has anyone spotted the new figures in the US? ??? :D
-
i want it for my eldorado thingie
:hmm: I was thinking the same about my Eldorado thingie ;D
-
cant spot any on ebay yet even if theres already some of series 2 figures for sale
-
the head rotates?!?
360° ?!! :omg:
Quick, perform an exorcism!!
"Deus, in nómine tuo salvum me fac,
et virtúte tua age causam meam.
Deus, audi oratiónem meam;
áuribus pércipe verba oris mei.
Nam supérbi insurréxunt contra me, et violénti quasiérunt vitam meam;
non proposuérunt Deum ante óculos suos.
etc...etc..."
;D
-

I stopped at TRU last night and they still had the old display out without anything for sale.

oh thanks for the info - i can't wait to see these in stores :love:
-
I checked my local toy shop today, to see if they had gotten these in. They had NOTHING new :(, not even stuff from the 2012 catalog. The store was busy, though, so I didn't get to talk to the shop owners to get an update.
I'm glad the "normal" Playmobil face is an option on these figures. Makes some of them a little more appealing (IMHO).
-
thanks for sharing everyone!
new ideas with these new parts definitely! :love:
-
That hairdo's great for a Scooby Doo custom ...
-
That hairdo's great for a Scooby Doo custom ...
LOL! You are exactly right! ZOINKS! ;D
-
that is AWESOME! I have been calling all the stores in my area trying to find series two and no one has them yet :(
-
Is the Rock Star's guitar the same as the one from the old special 4512?
-

i think so! it's red too :D :love: (thanks for pointing it out - i hadn't realized that)
-
Darn... they could at least do a different one... A V one, in white :love:
-
On Facebook, Playmobil states the only figure with a rotating head for Series 3 is the Halloween Guy. This is a good thing since that one is downright scary for small children! :hmm:
-
wait...i haven't seen the series 3 ones...where are they? ???
-
First small pic of Fi?ures Series 3
(http://s14.directupload.net/images/111125/rr7vt8t6.jpg)
-
actually i LOVE the halloween guy's face >:D
one question (and please pardon me if it has already been asked) - when Series 2 come out the figs. from Series 1 will no longer be on sale, right?
-
right asked playmbi and said that in certain countries its already sold out.and now they will be heading for series t2 and after series 3 and so on no turning back
-
It's FAR too fast.
-
It's FAR too fast.
sry?
-
They're doing series 2 and 3 too fast, imo..
WAY too fast.
-
yes infact there where lots of complains about it cos if im not wrong they pm also said that series 3 will be out this year too.
-
Yes, series 3 in the summer... August, maybe?
It's WAY too fast, especially if we consider the blind factor...
-
i am actually late to the fi?ures party...lol when was series 1 released?
-
i am actually late to the fi?ures party...lol when was series 1 released?
Last summer...
-
so they are coming out with new ones about every 6 months or so? that does seem quick!
-
Very quick, especially when you add the blind thing... People end up not having the time to buy what they want...
-
I think it's a brilliant move on their part. They have us all rushing to buy them as soon as they come out, hundreds of collectors all over the world buying an extra 48 klickys a year on average, probably. Some don't buy them all, some get multiples of certain ones, or all of them. But I know I must have one of each.
-
yeah I agree with Tahra - it's too fast
if we compare it to the case of the Special theme we are being rushed to buy too many in a short period of time (that's bussiness, I know) but I guess it's pretty ok since they're offering great designs :love:
I need to get the ones I still don't have from S1 before they are discontinued :omg:
-
I love the way these look together! :love:

-
I also agree with Tahra that the series follow each other up too quick.
Btw, are the colours of the packages of series 2 different to those of series 1 (blue/pink)?
If the colours are the same, it could become problematic when in shops the series 2 are added to the same baskets with the leftovers from series 1 (and there are many of those here), which would make it even more complicated to find the ones you want...
-
The bags on Series 2 are yellow and green...(I think).
-
i agree it is too fast... I'm contemplating dropping out of current lines and going pure classic collecting because there is no way I'll be able to keep up :o One series a year I could handle ... or if they were going to say... release them as "specials" the following year in regular non-blind packaging... but this is getting a bit too much for me :'(
-
yes, the series 2 are different colors. I have not seen them in person so i am not sure, but they do appear to be a yellow/orange color and a green/teal color.
I can see why 6mo. seems like a quick time, and maybe it is because there are not that many PM buyers in my area, but i started two weeks ago looking for the series 1, going to different shops and feeling packages, and have been able to find at least 1 of each (except for that dang Russian bride!) and have not had any trouble discerning which klicky was in the package. I am READY for the Series 2 to hit the local stores so i can start hunting a new set! :cheerlead:
-
Yeah, it's not fast enough for me! I'm dying to have series 2 and 3. Tomorrow would be fine with me! :lol:
-
The problem is the wallet... I intend to buy a box of each. But like Baron said, one a year would be fine...
Then it's hard to get more repeats of the cavewoman ones I want... especially cause I'm hopeless at the "feeling" :(
-
I just bought two more cavewomen today. ;D They're easy to feel for! Just look for the baby, it beds on the middle. Also the little wooden bowl is easy to feel.
-
that carrying thingie also helps you detect her
why is there so much excitement about the cavewoman? she's not that great to me - she's got her own theme ;D
-

yes, please tell..what's up with the cavewoman, she's one of the FEW i didn't want. I didn't like her! but congrats on her coming to live with your family!
-
She is the one I am still chasing. I wanted her because the theme seems neat and only will have one female easily available in a set. Unless the DS family set becomes available.
-
Am I the only one who rips open the bags as soon as I get in my car after leaving the store?
-
You wait til you leave the store?? :P
I opened my first ones in the store and put it together to show the shop keeper how it worked :D
-
LOL! I am in too much of a hurry for that. Besides, the only place they're available at is TRU in my part of the world, and I doubt they'd care too much about them. ;D
-
Same for me about the cavewoman... the theme has lots of cavemen and women are scarce, so I'm stocking up on women. I'm keeping one of each F?gure set apart to stay as they are, and then getting duplicates of certain ones to use for parts, or in certain themes. SO I now have three cave women altogether.
And yes, I rip them open the second I get in the car to make sure I got the ones I wanted!
-
I am a car ripper too! i haven't guessed one wrong yet though!!! so I am happy with that! But yes, i have to SEE them to make sure! I love them and am SOOOO ready for series 2 to hit the shelves here!
-
I haven't guessed one wrong yet either! :high5:
-
I haven't guessed one wrong yet either! :high5:
Me either. ;D But I do wait until I get home to open them...not sure why/ :hmm: Prolongs the suspense I suppose. :lol:
-
I can't seem to guess one RIGHT.
-
I'm not good at picking them either. I think for one I'm ALWAYS in a hurry and don't like to stay in stores longer than I absolutely have to. ::)
-
Last time in toys r us the shop assistants kept walking past and laughing at me. ::) I didn't care-I just wanted the right klickies! :lol:
On another separate occasion in toymaster a woman said "oh, there's no point trying to feel them you'll never get the one you want". In my head I was like just you wait and see :P but I politely put down my shopping, dug in and triumphantly paid for the highway robber 3 minutes later (It was the large sack that gave that one away). ;D
Verity
-
In learning express the other day, the older woman working behind the counter kept finding things to straighten nearby as an excuse to look and try to figure out what on earth I was doing. :lol: She was probably afraid I was opening them and stealing parts or something. ::)
-
lol in Learning exp. I always strike up a conversation with the clerks while i am feeling the bags...and they usually talk about the L*** freaks who come in a do it all the time!
-
lol everytime i touch the bags to feel for what's inside the clerks are totally careless about it (or they pretend very well that they do) - i guess i've been lucky so far ;D
-
ALL the learning express workers know me by name. They all talk to me. I wonder if they make fun of me when I leave. Lol
-
Yeah, most of the people at Learning Express know us, but this lady didn't remember us, I guess. One of the ladies there has even given us special discounts before. :lol: And two other privately owned toy stores have our phone number to call us when they get new playmobil in!
-
Stopped by TRU tonight, they had a fresh supply of series 1.
-
My efficiency is 100%. I only take what I identify by touching. Not even opened the 12 pinky bags because I am sure what is inside (In addition, I did not plan to buy them until I saw the new series and I understood I will buy both boys and girls collections every single year). A lot of fun to come. Series 2 for girls look challenger, it will take me more time each. Marvelous sense of touch!!!
-
I wonder if they make fun of me when I leave. Lol
I bet they do - the voice of immediate experience speaks here ;D
-
I kept getting weird looks as I felt the bags looking for a cave woman's child or pot. i will them a few days and check and see if someone slices them open again like the last batch.
-
ALL the learning express workers know me by name. They all talk to me. I wonder if they make fun of me when I leave. Lol
You just stare them straight in the eye and tell them that the little voices in your head tell you to feel what's inside the bags.They'll most likely leave you alone-if not avoid-you after that. ;) ;D
-
I had a discussion with a local supplier who indicated that Series 2 was not going to be released until April in the USA, does anybody know anything else about this? I was told that it was because the US stores would not buy inventory in February because or the way taxes work so they are pushing back the US roll-out to match up with the next theme release orders in April (also said the "May" release items should be available in April as well) So... has anyone spotted any stateside yet? :lol:
-
i have not. I have one local learning express that said they will call me when they come in, and TRU said they should be in "in a few weeks" when they do their spring set....but who knows. I don't want to wait until april!!! :-\ :'( :hissyfit:
-
and again, i got all what i wanted.. and the quantity i wanted too :P picture commin as soon i put them togetehr :P
-
I have not heard about an April push back of the figures. I do know that my local Learning Express has not even received their PM order for January yet. The other toy shop I go to has all the new stuff already but no suprise figs yet.
-
:)
Pics under the skirts? (yes, I know I sound like a pervert, insisting on those.. I'm just SO CURIOUS! I'd like to see pics of the parts.. uhm. I suppose THAT didn't help. But you guys know what I mean :P)
Is the Lara Croft the same usual "white" skin color? We've been wondering about that.. Cause if she's a different shade, that kinda ruins possibilities.
-

Are they regular "bikini girls" with the skirt as a "fixed "belt" sort of thing?
-
bikin is a different figure .. just a sec
-

with robe and without
-
I know they're different figures, what I mean is if the parts are different... I thought they were made the same way... Kinda pointless if they're different, I mean, the purpose of the figures is supposed to be to mess them all about, right?
Ah, and thank you - forgot to say that before :-[
-
so the ballet dancer is basically a speedo girl with an extra mini skirt - can the skirt be taken off?
-
yes the skirt is a single part.. i do a picture
-
here
the cheerleader got the same inlet..
-
how nice :love: thanks for the pic!
-
BUT
the skin color on the torso, dont match the arms and legs.. its darker.. its a very very bad fault.. hould get my money back actually
-
here
the cheerleader got the same inlet..
Ah.. THANK YOU!
The different colors are bad, yes...
-
wow i can't believe you've got the new ones! i want them! :hissyfit: :hissyfit: :hissyfit:
-
i can buy them for u when u want.. 2 euros each
-

thanks Mike, if we don't get them in the US soon I will have to take you up on that offer. Does the guitar guy have a two sided face??? he is so cool! :rock:
-
yes, the other side is the standart face..
-
BUT
the skin color on the torso, dont match the arms and legs.. its darker.. its a very very bad fault.. hould get my money back actually
that's always been the case with flesh printed torsos actually :-\
-
My local shop got their order in and the figures were backordered. So April is a definite possibility I guess.
-
here
the cheerleader got the same inlet..
Could you please combine parts of ballerina, cheerleader or bikini girl with standard swimmers? I would like to see the results. Keep in mind fi?ure heads and standard heads are different and probably only torsos can fit. BTW, I still believe fi?ure torsos are a little bit narrower.
-
i dont own a swi,mmer

boo!!!!!! :'(
-
just was in another shop, which called karstadt and they only have boys.. i juts bought me 3 more rockers.. i love the haircut! they still have many figures from series 1 left.. but i only bought the uncle sam and the cave woman last year.. i dont like the others very much
-
the skeleton is the same as that of the bikini girls, so they should be interchangable...
-

Yeah but remember this threat:
http://www.playmofriends.com/forum/index.php?topic=10213.0
A standard head fits the fi?ure skeleton but not the opposite.
My point is for swimmer style skeletons, both standard and fi?ures, skeleton is fixed to hips and legs...
-
i meant this kind of surprise figures (ballerina) should be interchangable with the swim suited klickies, not with standard ones
-
Series 1 and Series 2 Online-mixer in German site already...

Any sign of these in the UK yet?
-
mostlikley in august/september when we get series 3 her ein germany
-
There are a lot of these that seem pretty cool to me, but I am a bit disappointed that the knight has flesh-coloured hands. That annoys me sometimes, haha, but it's not that bad.
I'd like a look at the new rapier-looking swords from the pirate (and the fencer set) though, and some of the girl figures seem cool too.
-
Talked to my local toy shop owner over the weekend and he said all he knows is series two has been backordered.
-

Series two arrived in my local toyshop today, and I must say the figures are way better than those of Series one imho!I LOVE the "Elvis", "Punk rocker", "Pirate" and "Princess" figures!!! :)

You have much luck, friend! How are the pirate rapier-type swords and the princess's hair? I was wondering if the rapiers were rigid or bendable and whether her hair was short or long in the back. ;)
-
Eagerly waiting for my boxes....
-
Yippie!!!Got "Series two" complete, without even ONE double!!!
Going to buy a few "doubles", though, lol!!! ;D

Bendable rapiers and short hair! :)

Bendable rapiers and short hair! :)
Haha, both the answers that I wasn't hoping for! But still cool. Thanks! ;)

interesting new marketing by Geobra. They really are not bashful about copying right on the line anymore. It is a bit ironic that Geobra fights collectors about copy rights but then they sure push the envelope them selfs.
-
I know Ras. I was buying some PM at TRU the other day and noticed that lego has a statue of Liberty fig and other identical figs out all ready.

They all look the same. I saw a Flamenco dancer the statue you said, same looking knights, the skater kids, etc......
come on designers, you are paid top wages and this is what you come up with. Looks like you were on the office AKA toilet with the lego catalog and fished out all you designs.
don't get me wrong I want all of them but more for the fact that they are playmobil. There are some that do look really good and I will want many of them. My oldest son want an army of a particular soldier.
