Scooby-Doo!™ - Playmobil® Theme

The collaboration between Playmobil and Scooby-Doo! (launched around 2020) is widely considered one of the best licensed themes the brand has ever produced.
It perfectly blends the "spooky-but-safe" aesthetic of the classic 1969 cartoon with the high-quality, tactile play of Playmobil.

Here is a breakdown of the Mystery Inc. universe in the Playmobil Encyclopedia.

the "Principal Characters" are divided into two categories: the crime-solving Mystery Inc. Gang and the Imposter Villains.

I. Mystery Inc.: The Crime Solvers

The gang's designs are highly faithful to their original 1969 "Where Are You!" appearances, with specialized accessories that highlight their roles.

Scooby-Doo:
- The Figure: An entirely custom mold. Unlike standard Playmobil dogs, he has a rotating neck and a hinged jaw.
- Abilities: His front paws have "gripping" notches, allowing him to hold food or flashlights.
- Variants: He is often sold with themed hats (Chef, Lifeguard, Pilot, or Cowboy).
Shaggy Rogers:
- The Figure: Uses the standard 7.5cm body with a custom messy hairpiece and a "perpetually worried" facial expression.
- Key Accessory: Almost always paired with a large hamburger or a bag of Scooby Snacks.
Fred Jones:
- The Figure: Features his signature white sweater and blue ascot (which is a removable clip-on piece).
- Role: Usually the driver of the Mystery Machine and the keeper of the "Ghost Card" map.
Daphne Blake:
- The Figure: Wears her iconic purple dress and green scarf.
- Articulation Note: Her skirt is a separate piece that allows her to sit in the Mystery Machine (though it requires a bit of a "pop up" motion to fit).
Velma Dinkley:
- The Figure: Complete with her orange turtleneck and thick-rimmed glasses (printed directly on the face).
- Key Accessory: Always carries a magnifying glass and a file box containing the gang's gathered evidence.

II. The Iconic "Imposters" (Villains)

In this theme, the villains are treated as principal characters because they drive the "Unmasking" gameplay. Each villain figure features a removable mask or a reversible head with two faces: the "Spooky Ghost" and the "Grumpy Human."
