Playmobil Construction range
There’s serious work to be done in the new Playmobil Construction range, and there are five big new vehicles to help out.
Leading the way is the Heavy Duty Mobile Crane. This comes with a big boulder so it can show off, as well as two construction worker figures to oversee events. The crane’s arm rotates through 360 degrees and is extendable, so nothing is out of its reach.
Flashing lights (batteries included) are included to warn other Playmobil characters to keep out of the way. The crane is priced around £39.99.
The Conveyor Belt with Mini Excavator, priced around £29.99, is great for shifting smaller boulders and rocks. The excavator can scoop up the rocks (a healthy selection is provided) and dump them onto the conveyor belt.
You can then wind the conveyor belt to move the rocks to the top and dump them out of the way. Two workmen and a selection of tools are included, and the conveyor belt features a control panel that any Bond villain would be proud of.
The Heavy Duty Excavator rolls into action next, ready for some heavy duty excavating. The platform rotates through 360 degrees to get at those hard-to-reach places and can also be locked into position for driving.
A single driver is included and the set is priced around £24.99.
Duties remain heavy with the Heavy Duty Dump Truck. No need for beating about the bush here – just load the truck up with rubble and it will dump it, no questions asked.
Coming with 13 boulders (including one really giant one) and a driver, the truck bed tilts to empty itself and prepare for the next load. It is priced around £24.99.
And as if all that wasn’t enough, the Heavy Duty Front Loader is available for around £19.99. It can scoop up boulders (it comes with six) and rolls forward on its big wheels. A construction worker figure is included, with a shovel and broom for clearing up after the hard work is done.
