Now that PM has started making sets based on films and tv shows, I’m hoping they could show some interest in European intellectual properties, specifically those belonging to Belgian comics like Tintin, Asterix etc. Such characters are still very much loved by adults and children alike in Francophone countries and beyond, and would make awesome sets. Tintin: how cool would all the characters be, and what about all the vehicles that appear in his adventures? Same goes for Asterix, which could also borrow a lot from the already existing Roman theme. I used to have the Play Asterix toys in the 80s - anyone remember those - and I loved them.
Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts. As a European I feel these IPs could be shown more love by European toy companies, and not just because they’re part of our recent cultural heritage, but also because they’re much more clever, entertaining and fun than the likes of Scooby Doo
I’m aware there might be problems getting the licences (with Tintin especially), but one can dream.
