Playmobil toys bring together real life themes and cheery figures for imaginative play and construction fun. Over the years, some proposed sets have included Chinese Railroad Workers and a Grave Digger for the Western theme, as well as a Medieval Torture Room. Prototypes were made. However, these sets were considered insensitive and inappropriate for young children, and were never released. [9] There are however sets including ghosts and a mummy containing a skeleton. The fastest selling Playmobil figurine is of Martin Luther. It was released to commemorate 500 year anniversary of Ninety-five Theses, which sparked the start of the Reformation. The first edition of 34,000 figurines sold out in three days. [14] [15] [16] FunParks and FunStores [ edit ] The life-sized Playmobil pirate ship in FunPark in Zirndorf, Germany

McNary, Dave (May 6, 2016). "Open Road Joins 'Playmobil' Animated Movie". Variety . Retrieved August 12, 2016.There are a number of Playmobil amusement parks, called FunParks, that feature play areas and events themed around Playmobil toys. There are also FunStores within FunParks and, formerly, in other locations. FunStores are dedicated Playmobil shops that carry full lines of current Playmobil releases. Playmobil toys are specifically aimed at children from the ages of four to twelve. The company believes that older children tend not to play with these types of toys and so they have resisted creating toys from less well-known historical time periods. Many adults own or collect Playmobil and make movies with the toys.
