Those I believe are Chinese.
We can buy them here in B.A.
Beside the fact it's a SHAMELESS rip off, the quality is TERRIBLE! horses (and mostly everything else) for example are hollow, it's like just the "skin" of a PM horse.

HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!  >:( >:( >:(

They r not available here....meaning we are not fooled by them haha
The last few are really blatant copies.
The earlier ones I may hv bought if there were no playmo in this world...I did want posable but bigger historical figures than Lego scale

Wow, this is crazy. 8}

The wording is comical on some of the packages for sure, but this really is quite a terrible practice.

I'll believe you! Gullible is my middle name!

But faking toys has been around for ages. I remember Betta Builda doing ripoff Lego way back. (Mind you, I think they got sued!). Now there seem to be many Legolookalikes. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery (or a way of making a fast buck).

FALLER PLAYLAND ! from germany  (here only 4 pics i had many more)

Andi

OMG THAT HOUSE!!!!!

Oh no, I've become a bad playmofriend.... I want a rip off!

I love it though, and as the houses have lost all compatibility with each other, i find my brand loyalty waning! Playmobil, I blame you for this! This is what happens when you give up STECK!!!!
