Dinosaurs 
Hans Beck, the creator of the Playmobil® figure, once said that Playmobil® would never produce dinosaurs because they aren't part of children's daily world. In 2004 the first dinosaurs theme was introduced, reflecting a change of philosophy and a move away from daily realism. An unusual theme, it combined arctic exploration and archaeology with dinosaurs frozen in ice. In late 2006 a second series of dinosaurs were released. This one with a much greater variety and in a tropical setting. A third series was released in 2012, with even more variety, as well as fossils. In 2021 the Dino Rise theme was introduced in a Mecha styled storyline. Not everything here is technically a dinosaur, but it is prehistoric and often considered a dino in popular culture.
