A fedw new things added this time, and a big image update.
For new items the Tiny House theme instructions are online and the squirrels in the chicken coop set 71510 have a new number 30 51 3733
Also now online are official photos of the Juniors Aqua sets that include three colors of octopus in the plant based plastics, as well as new Juniors jellyfish molds. This series is a cooperative one with bath salts maker Tinti so are probably limited to European Union release.
Instructions for the Horses of Waterfall pony farm theme are also now online.
There is a pink songbird that was previously missed. In set 71493 EN 30 04 4485
That's it for new information. There were lots of image updates though as I go caught up on set releases.
From the 50th Birthday sets
From the camping set 71425 the tan puppy, definitely different fromt eh previous version
From Pirates
From the carnival set 71452
From the adventure set 71454
Wave one of the Horses of Waterfall sets
First here is the new brushable mane horse, the tail comes separate and has to be clipped in. Note these are teh first horses with mouths that open. Better in size than the previous brushable mane horses but still seem a little oversized compared to the others.
Other horses from the theme
Many other small animals from sets in the theme. The alpacas don't have painted eyes but otherwise match a previous version. The laying cat is a light purple color with the wound mark on the back. Dove and small rabbits turned out to be grey.
That's it for individual shots, here are new group images
In general news there is a McDonalds promotion with Playmobil Wiltopia animals included with Happy Meals. So far it is out in Belgium and South Korea, and expected to be in Germany in coming months. Other locations are unknown. The molds are different than previous ones, often with a leg outstretched or simplified shapes. They are made of plant based plastics in China rather than the recycled content from Germany. They come with collector cards and in a little box. There are 14 different ones in the European release and 8 in South Korea. Images can be found at Amclicks or other usual places.Hopefully they will get wide release in Germany and I can acquire them off German eBay eventually. They will be added to Animobil if and when I can get high quality pictures.
Thanks for reading - Tiermann
