Toy giant Schleich’s slogan is “Anywhere’s a Playground,” and they proved that at New York Toy Fair 2015 with an incredible showing of their current and upcoming releases. Schleich just recently exploded into the mainstream with the DC Comics Justice League series, now available in stores with single and two-packs featuring Superman, Batman, the Flash, Green Lantern, the Joker, and Darkseid. Coming up this year is a new two figure Scenery Pack with Batman and an all new Harley Quinn as well as a four pack gift set reissuing the current Leaguers. And stay tuned in 2016 for Wonder Woman to join the League!
For fantasy action, Schleich has been wowing kids and collectors with their Knights line, but this year all of the current products transition to the new line called Eldrador. This is where you’ll find dragons and other mythical creatures, heroes, villains, castles, and so much more. They’re even expanding the play world with a new line of accessory packs featuring great atmospheric pieces like dragon skulls, additional weapons, skeletons, small animals, etc. Schleich is always looking to improve and add more features, and so figures and creatures of Eldrador have articulation, magnets for holding riders in saddles, and bonus weapons. This year adds six new dragons at two size/articulation levels, Magical Knights with interchangeable weapons, a giant configurable Battle Arena with exclusive figure, and the fearsome Scorpion Rider!
2015 is a big year for Peanuts with a new movie on the way, and Schleich is revitalizing its long-running line of toys with new multi-figure packs celebrating love and Valentine’s Day as well as the Lucy-centric Psychiatric Booth pack. From the movie specifically will be a scenery pack with Snoopy and his two brothers plus new keychains utilizing current figures. The company also continues its dinosaur domination with new flyers, minis in single, four, and eight packs, six new medium size with improved sculpts and articulation in July, and lots more! Schleich also has great new softer fantasy figures and creatures in its ongoing Bayala line with new Rainbow Babies.
