Madness Playmobil



The Playmobil is revolutionary.
 It is between the traditional figure, lead, and the articulated doll image


They are more than two billion on the planet, small colorful plastic figurines born from the imagination of a certain Hans Beck, the world's children, ecstatic, clippent and déclippent alternately arm since 1974 ...
A saga that goes from birth to Nuremberg to a popular exhibition at the Museum of Decorative Arts, we tell you this week in four episodes.
For two months, the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris, hordes of thirtysomethings and toddlers communicate in the same ecstasy before the windows of the exhibition devoted to Playmobil. They learn that their beloved figures, devoid of gross national identity, were born in Germany, close to Nuremberg, the capital of European sport since the fourteenth century.
And they can say thank you to the oil crisis without increasing the price of plastic material for the election of hula-hoops and large pedal tractors manufactured by the family business Geobra Brandstätter, it would can not be grown its employee Hans Beck to accelerate the development of a masterpiece of miniaturization: a figure of 7.5 cm plastic molded to the boil deliberately neutral, taking in a child's hand and accompanied by a series of accessories making it scalable to infinity.

The Mattel company indeed presents to the Show of Nuremberg three Barbie's new models, in the effigy of three big celebrities that are princess Victoria, heir of Sweden, Kim Clijsters, the tennis player and... J.K. Rowling (the creator of Harry Potter).

Indeed, when Mattel created Barbie, it was inspired by a "glamor girl" German born in 1955, Lili (or Lily).

So now exunt Barbie gymnast, veterinarian, or an air hostess, welcome to Barbie modeled on personalities.

The senior vice president of International Barbie. Rosa Zeegers, explains the choice of three celebrities: "These are real examples for girls of all ages who embody the essence and values of Barbie."

The figures wear the same clothes and have almost the same faces as those that inspired them. A little rejuvenation has however been made on JK Rowling.She is dressed in a suit of black wool and warm and equipped with a small bouquet of flowers as she presented herself during the Monsters and Critics Award Banquet 2009 . Remember that the Nurembetg Show runs from February 4 to 9. It attracts about 75,000 visitors to 70,000 new judge.

Purpose of the game, not concealed by Mattel: change the image of Barbie, beautiful but stupid. The doll is here to promote real female role models.
