Playmobil will launch a Ghostbusters line in 2017

Hmmm, I'm definitely not thrilled about the licencing, or that the first licenced theme is this one...

I'm a fan of the original Ghostbusters films, but the new one does not look very good.

As for Playmobil, I think it could be a good theme, albeit not one I would collect, and it does not stray too far from what they already have for their City Action theme. 

Regarding licensing, on the one hand, if this increases Playmobil's profits and brings new people to the brand, that can help their regular lines.  On the other hand, I don't want them to only start releasing licensed products.

....but any new release gives me hope of getting new parts I can use

Ditto... I liked the video for the song, actually, with all the cameos..

And about that....... Why didn't they use "playmoroom", instead of "playroom"?

"playroom" has the wrong number of syllables.. imo, it doesn't work.

What I wouldn't give for a playmobil Bill Murray!

I'd buy Stripes klickies.

I had hoped they´d license "Master & Commander"...

Really not looking forward to licensing. Ghostbusters is such a "meh" choice for a first step into that field as well.

It is, isn't it? Maybe I am misjudging its popularity....

I think that now the Old Boys are gone the Gnomes of Zirndorf are in disarray and casting about for a direction. As we say in the US, they are throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks. Super 4, NHL, Ghostbusters, Asian Dragons - expect more of this sort of thing.
