It's a French site.

Biggest surprise here is the Halloween set using steck! It's just a small ruin but still, they are going to put actual steck back in stores.
A pity the zombie in it has a wrong face but Dracula and Van Helsing look good and like actual playmobil. Some interesting parts with it too.
Sadly yet more Novelmore sets, can't they please move on from it already? It features a castle but it's just the red/black villain castle of the last batch before Novelmore, with Novelmore colours.
There's a nice looking witch with a flying broom, sadly ruined by the soulless new eye thing they seem to do here and there. Is there a way to remove that or something? I hate those eyes so much, ruins what otherwise could be perfectly good clickies.
The new pirate calendar I'd need to see a proper picture of the contents of, seems it comes with a female pirate for the first time, sadly along with a half octopus clicky with wrong eyes. But I think the pirate does have normal brown eyes. But these calendar sets often have a lot of nice little parts so it does have my curiosity.
The other stuff does not interest me personally, the new figures have nothing interesting to me and sadly half are ruined by the wrong eyes.
But feel free to have a look, there's plenty of other new stuff too coming up.

What I good find!
Here are my thoughts:
71624 & 71625 I’m hoping the platypuses, frilled lizard and the wombats can be ordered as a spare part
71639 & 71640 don’t like the real hair on the horses. The selling point for playmobil is the durability.
71644 I really like the dragon in this novelmore set
71648 it’s a nice supermarket set
71651 my kids actually play with the ruin from the older set 3839 in combination with different Halloween characters. I’m a bit disappointed in this Dracula klicky. I like the 71582 special better.
71680 smart to make a set with the Asterix klickies

What are those wall connectors ?

A freekin banana on a scooter, how oddly random is that
I’d this called the “molly rave” set

I think it's meant to be more like Frankenstein's monster or a ghoul.

They released a very similar steck ruin in Ayuma range 70807, which I think even featured new parts.

The banana is clearly meant to be a hallucination

That's enough to convince one to take up clean living.
The wombats are so cute!
Whatever happened to the Novelmore printed camel? Did it get scrapped, or did I just miss it?
-
Banana man, when he is not being chased by Gorilla Grod he is busy explaining he's NOT in adult movies. He's just the hero nobody wanted or deserved.
:banana:

As a long-time fan of the TV show Arrested Development, I must have that Banana on a Scooter! :love:
-
Oh I’m definitely getting multiples of the banana man molly set

It never made it into release the US. For some reason they put half that Novelmore release in the add ons catalog and then just never made them available in the US even though they were in the catalog.

Thanks, now we just need playmobil to release an apple suit too! :apple:

The new catalog is available (on the Dutch website).
-
The US online catalog has been updated as well. Interesting it is now the USA-Mexico catalog and is in both English and Spanish.

First step in the right direction , next a manufacturing/distribution warehouse ….then transfer to China

My local toyshop had new stock of 2024 July to December UK catalogues yesterday. But no Playmobil Plus catalogue inside - is this a new strategy to avoid competition with what PM high street retailers can offer?
-
There’s also no playmobil plus catalog on the website.

:'( I thought so. It's a shame. I wanted to grow my camel collection.

Series 26 seems to include a Dizzy Gillespie klickie :o

Holy smokes, more novelmore? Why don't they run some normal knight sets again? Having a self-created brand name attached to it does NOT make it more popular with kids.

Having a popular game or cartoon would make it popular. They're doing the same thing they did with Super 4 but on a larger scale. Silly random fantasy stuff too. The cannons on the castle are 'protected' by small sails/flags. So the defenders have their vision blocked while getting no protection. The dragon cannon looks nice though.

Seeing Playmobil 1.2.3 get re-branded is kind of sad to me, but they've made up for it with some really compelling additions. It's nice to see them step up their game and make much better Disney sets. My niece and I are going to have a lot of fun with the customizable Cinderella castle. The blank faced, chunky Cinderella and Prince Charming are adorable too. Cinderalla was always my favourite pre-90s Disney Princess. :)
I'm also happy to see the Aqua series continuing, and I'll likely pick up the Moana set, the Ariel set, and the submarine if it gets released in Canada. The big octopus set is interesting too, but I'm not completely sold yet. ???
Recently I had to convert to 1.2.3 due to a new kitten, and frequent visits from the niece and nephew. I had to pack away all of my regular Playmobil, but I've discovered how lovely the chunkier kits can be because of it. It looks like they're putting out some good stuff soon. :)

Turns out the Playmobil Junior sets just became available on the website last night! I decided to hold off on the Cinderella Castle, because it's just too expensive. I picked up the Shovel Excavator, since it's the best Junior set if you ask me. Just take a look at it and tell me how you could resist? :3
