Olympic photos!

I really thought Playmobil should have offered these sets online or something. I heard they didn't fare too well in stores 4 years ago, but I thought they were fantastic!

I know of a few stores that still can't get rid of these. Many ended up at Tuesday Morning stores too.

Beautiful pictures  :)

Yeah they didn't do too well in Belgium either. They were sitting in the discount section for ages.

Great photos, you've really got some movement into them! Individually they possibly don't have as much play value to children, a layout of the different gymnastics events all taking part in the arena would look great but cost a fortune.

Great pics! I liked those sets too!

I managed to get all of them except for the uneven bars - which was a shame, as my daughter has done gymnastics for years (coaches kids herself now too!) and that was always her favourite apparatus.

Salamander - the uneven bars piece shows up in the 2016 Shopping Advent Calendar as a clothes rack. You may be able to custom up a set using that.

great photos, I can see why they wouldn't want to do another production run if they didn't sell well the first time. Maybe the next time the Olympics roll around they will do a new run.

Thanks Tiermann! That is some hilarious repurposing! I will definitely look into getting that set!

Or an actual winter olympics theme (updated from the one years ago) would be awesome!
