This page has been updated since yesterday the 27th. Some new instructions came available online and three additional animals were added.

So first these latest additions.

In the Wiltopia Amazon set 71142 the tan monkey is new, 30 65 7285

The little tortoise also has new numbers body 30 07 9724 and shell 30 07 9734

In the horse themed picnic set 71239 the duckling is 30 20 3264

Further updates to the animals pages have been done reflecting new current or upcoming sets.

There is one new in hand photo addition. The triceratops skull in glow in the dark white. A new larger mold than the previous skull.

There is a new North American themed Wiltopia set 71403 currently available is a few export markets. Hopfeully it will come to the actual North America soon.

New paint, new colors and the swallow recolored as a baby eagle. No new molds though, but that's fine to me as it's a great looking set.

The rest of the additions this update are sets coming in the future. Playmobil has been terrible this year about updating their own sites. Some themes have been there for months but others were spotted briefly at Nuremberg Toy Fair and then never added. I usually wait until a set is added to one of the websites or is in a catalog before adding it to Animobil. With the company being so behind on news this year I have added a new primary source, Amazon. Amazon.com is listing sets with images as pre-purchase future releases. Here are what is shown at this moment and when they are expected to be released.

In July there will be Wiltopia packaged animals Wave 2. These are in the cardboard sleeves like Wave 1 from last year.

The group includes a beaver, and a koala with baby. I haven't shown these here as they look to be re-releases of the ones from the Advent calendar. The others have new paint or colors though.

Alligator in Green and Tan 71287

Sea Lion with Spots 71288

African Wild Ass 71289

Kangaroo and Joey from 71290

Also released in July will be a set of Wiltopia Africa sets.

There is a vehicle set with Veterinarian and the female lion with cub, 71293

The largest set is the Elephant at Wtering Hole set 71294

This set also includes a gazelle that is likely a re-release of the one from the Advent calendar

There is a set with a photographer dressed up like a zebra and the zebra adult and young, 71295

And the last of the four sets is 71296 with a male ostrich and a nest

In August the next Police theme will be released, a new sheld there but I have not added upcoming shields yet so check back on that next month.

September there will be some new 123 sets including the giant Snail in a new color 71322

The largest set of the new 123 releases 71326 includes a dog that seems to be a new spot color

Also in September are a couple of new Ayuma sets.

Set 71349 includes the Ayuma lizard again, probably in a more blue color?

Set 71350 includes a green beaver and a bat with paint details

In October there will be a wedding theme with a large Wedding Reception set 71365 including the Newfoundland dog type 2 in brown

Also in October there will be a wave of larger Naruto sets. Most do not have pictures online at Amazon yet but set 70666 includes this white or grey snake with black spots

There are still some other sets coming with animals later in the year not yet shown here. The Advent Calendars will have some, as will one of the Naruto sets, a wave of Magic Princess sets, a new recycled materials horse theme, and some new starter or gift sets.

Even so, with the additions listed above this year is already the second biggest ever with more definitely on the way.

Having the three biggest years ever of new animal variations all one after the other has put a strain on my ability to keep up. They will all get added eventually though. I have managed all of 2021 and all but 14 of 2022 so far. I will post more images as they come available on public sites.

Thanks for reading - Tiermann
