Playmo galore!

TVTA’s good friend Zerocal at playvendor kindly sent me scans of some great Playmo ads from Brazil and Italy, along with an insert catalogue by Brazilian license TROL, plus other goodies.

I’ve also included in this post a Danish ad from my own collection that has somehow eluded the jaws of my scanner for a few months now. Also featured today are some figures and promotional material from fast-food chain Quick. Enjoy 🙂

Don’t forget, this year is the 40th birthday of Playmobil. How are you celebrating?

Trol catalogue & 2011 Brazil exhibition pass and flyer

This is a Playmobil catalogue that would have been included in some of the sets. Dated around 1978 – 1980 and produced by the Brazilian license holder TROL, the front and reverse of the catalogue show some of the sets available at the time.

Quick Playmobil promotion, 2014, France

Here in France, fast-food chain Quick is running a Playmobil promotion offering ten collectable figures along with prize-winning opportunities to grab two play-sets from each store. The figures are based on the theme of princesses and pirates, and they come free with a purchase of Quick’s Magic Box meal.

I don’t normally collect fast-food promotional toys, but this Playmo promo is really good. Sadly, the fish dippers I’m eating to get the toys are just as addictive as the toys. Better add some extra Ks onto my cycling route these next couple of weeks…
