Novelties 2020 - first half

The "beard around the neck" will make it impossible to give klickies a neckpiece, collar or cloak.Not so good in my book.

Agree. Not a good move at all.

Agree. Not a good move at all.

Don't worry about this one!!! It is an exact copy of what happens in the cartoons. The beard is taken away in the cartoon separately like it can be detached from the Playmobil figure. I guess Playmobil did this, so children don't have to lift the hair in order to take away the beard in case they want to play like it happened in the cartoon ;-)

Is it obvious I watched all Scooby-Doo chapters when I was a child?

Monsters or villains that will be part of the first batch of the surprise bags of Scooby Doo. I was a able to recognise most of them:

GIPSY


BLACK KNIGHT


GHOST OF CAPTAIN CUTLER


PHANTOM (in set 70287)


MINER FORTY-NINER


WITCH DOCTOR


GHOST CLOWN


ZOMBIE CREEPER


SPOOKY SPACE KOOK


SNOW GHOST


GHOST OF ZEN TUO


HEADLESS HORSEMAN


One is not clear, which I think will be the Caveman.

The one that I couldn't recognise before appears to be the

INDIAN WITCH DOCTOR



It seems that all the figures come with a small "info document" with the names of the villains / monsters.

Ah! Thank you for that. (always good to have an expert!)

In that case, I take back what I said - I believe it is playmoperfect for it!    (though personally, I'd prefer a regular beard, since the character has no meaning for me..)

Forgot to add this earlier: if my eyes don't betray me the miner might have the "Norman" hairpiece from 9461 in grey – now that would be a great addition, too!

Is it obvious I watched all Scooby-Doo chapters when I was a child? 

It kinda is!  And your knowledge is most valuable, indeed. The possibility to reenact a "And I would have gotten away with it too..." moment kinda outweighs the cons of having the beard snap around the neck!

I am loving a few of the Candy figures 

Could you please let me know when the tree play house will be released ?

Thank you so much for sharing these novelties 

[leefert]

I absolutely love that Tree House set!!!!

It might be very good for that specific figure, but less "enjoyable" if they´d start using that beard more generally.

Of course. I do think it is perfect to represent that...

But I agree with you - all the more because I don't know or care about the characters, and so have no qualms about keeping them like that - we already agreed all of those "ghosts/monster/weirdos" in the ScoobyDoo theme are parts...

Unfortunately, my sister likes many the weirdos from the candies and those idiotically named ones original, or almost...

The new candy and scooby series look awesome.
Clown and mouse lady in series 17 would be my favourites, bagpiper from series 18. Series 18 girls just look blah, lots of weird ones but no really interesting ones.
The ewok cosplayer in series 18 boys is definitely different.
