Exposition Playmobil Au Musée Des Arts Décoratifs

Last month, the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris opened an exhibition of the history of Playmobil. The show is timed to commemorate Playmobil's 33rd, 34th, or 35th anniversary, depending on who's counting. Or the death in 2009 of Playmobil creator Hans Beck. Or maybe just the checkcashing of Playmobil's sponsorship of the Musée's galerie des jouets.

Anyway, between the company archives and the collection of one Oliver Schaffer, there are many artful arrangements of discontinued Playmobil figures to be gawked at.

I just tendered my resignation at the office, I'm going to pursue a career as a technical illustrator at Playmobil.
