Looking forward to seeing it. Any Info on a English version?
If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

From the original post, it looks like they are planning to broadcast it in the UK, so they must be making an English version. The question is, how to access it from the US.

Good evening dear Friends  :wave:

Since Playmofriends has always been my port of call and I could not possibly let my Friends down, so as a World Exclusive, here are the first 3 épisodes of the animated Super 4 TV Serie just for you  :**: :

Thanks for the links! Most animated shows are quite terrible nowadays, but this one seems interesting. I agree with most people that say the characters don't look very Playmobil-like, but that aside the show looks much better than most of the stuff on television these days.

I personally love the fact that these 4 characters will evolve through different universes and there is no doubt that the TV series will be a huge hit  :)

My favorite character being Ruby the Pirate who really has hilarious seaworthy references when she "swears"  :lol:

There's a location block.  :(  I guess I'll have to wait.

That is code for "do not look for it on official sites EVER again", I think.

Summary of A Royal Wedding

Alex’s sister, Léonore, wants to marry the Black Baron. Alex disapproves because the Black Baron has been after the throne and the laws of the kingdom pass the throne to the first royal child to marry and his/her spouse.

The Black Baron has been counting the coins in the treasury. He reminds Alex that he will be king tomorrow. Alex decides to stop the marriage.

Étincelle [Twinkle] overhears the Baron plotting with some scary lady and learns that the princess has been enchanted with a magic medallion. Alex and friends steal and break the medallion and are disappointed when doing so does not break the enchantment.

Léonore is upset that there aren’t more attendees. Scary lady shows up as the Baron’s witness. Alex speaks up when his father asks if anyone opposes the marriage,and tells him about the medallion. Léonore says they had identical medallions as symbols of their love (so Alex broke the wrong one). Léonore refuses to give up her medallion. The king asks if someone can explain what is going on.

The medallion gets flung in the air and falls around the neck of Scary lady, transferring the enchantment from Léonore to her. Léonore asks where she is. The king decides the Baron's current punishment is better than the dungeon. Léonore wants to have another wedding next week (to whom, I don't know).


Clearly, Alex needs to get married as soon as possible.

Thank you very much Karim.

Geobra should watch these too see what colors to make paymobil in. I see no pink castles or blue horse harnesses in the historical themes

Thanks for the links Karim! The animation is good and I like the overall look of things. Thanks for the translation Ismene. I figured something like that out from the story line but my French is basically nonexistant.

Idem here! The animation is really good actually though a little lack of action IMO, but it could be a cultural thing. If the series were made in USA surely it would be more hectic.

Things look better than I thought they were going to, though I still feel that the characters are way too much stylized and NOT REALLY PLAYMOBIL, the proportions for instance are absolutely off!!! Nevertheless the series captures the simplicity of PM in the backgrounds and decoration (probably they are even too simple, but I see that's good)

There are a couple of things I would like to see taken to real clickies, like the agent's hair style, which I imagine as a PM kid's head but in a grown up size  :love:

Overall an OK start. I still wish they had maintained the clickies proportions. To me that's unforgivable.  :'(
