Novelties / New catalogue (1st half 2022) available

[Redmao]

I just realized that the Canadian catalog doesn't have any mention of the Asterix theme. Will it be exclusive to Europe?
So far, there's no complete theme that catches my eye. A few sets or figures here and there, but the first half of 2022 might be pretty quiet for me. Until Knight Rider comes out.

The German catalog update is out as well. Identical to the US one except the German one has Asterix, and has the Harbor theme where the US has NHL hockey. They are closing the gap between export and home markets it seems. More and more themes are being released everywhere at once.

The release schedule for the Special Plus sets seems to vary in the different catalogues too.

It also looks like some price increases are on the way for some kinds of sets, at least for the new 2022 sets in some countries. Take a look at the DuoPack (up ~$2.00 each) and Special Plus (up ~$1.00) prices here:

Is this a first ?

Is this a defund the police jab ?

24/7 is a common expression . 24 hours, 7 days

So I’m not sure what 22/4 is beyond suggesting it’s 22 hours/day, 4 days/week

Do you mean the girl having shoes?

I hadn't seen the July Special Plus Figures, love the University Graduate in particular.

Can't imagine that tbh. Geobra isn't known as a company to participate in heated political controversies like this (let alone in a foreign country). Their policy is more to observe the things going on and silently adjust the product to changed circumstances if necessary (like adding more poc-figures to various themes or the seemingly gay family-sets to playmo-plus without printing #blm-tags or rainbow-flags on the catalogue-cover).

n germany it's usual that police cars have their id/callsign printed on the outside, so 22/4 probaly stands for car number 4 of police-station 22 or something like this.

As it has police on the vehicle then it's aimed at the international market so does any police force have such numbering on their vehicles?

The mini fairy is not new, but the feet on the girl look new.

I've seen similar markings in the UK, but not as prominent.  I have assumed that they are recognition signs.

The US online catalog for 2022 is at Playmobil.us now. Looks like we are getting many of the newest sets this year. What we are not getting is last year's starter sets like the astronomer, paleontologist, and Eskimos.

I don't think these have made it to the export market at all, so grab them if you can online!
