What’s the best Playmobil toy you’ve ever played with and why did you like it? Bex age 8

Lino DiSalvo – My parents immigrated to New York from Italy, in the 70’s. I was born in New York but we would go to Sicily every summer. That’s where I remember playing with Playmobil toys. One of the toys I remember is the space ship and astronauts toy set. They had platform shoes. I actually that toy set in the movie…

They land in the Gas station.

If you became a Playmobil character what character would you become and why? Con age 12

Lino DiSalvo – Ha, good question. I’m not gonna lie, probably Del. We have so much in common. My Dad’s a cook, A really good cook πŸ™‚ Being Italian, everything we do is scheduled around food. I even thought about opening a food truck many years ago…

I think Rex is really cool, but I’m not that cool, so there’s no way I can pull that off.

When making the Playmobil movie what was the most fun world to create and why? Con age 12

Lino DiSalvo – I loved it all really. It so much fun creating an animated movie. I love being in Production and bringing life to the characters. I wanted to take all the things I learned at Disney Animation, from working on movies like Frozen and Tangled and applying them here. It’s been really fun.

Who’s your favourite character in the Playmobil movie and why do you like them? Bex age 8

Lino DiSalvo – I love Emperor Maximus and how crazy he is. I love Marla and her determination. Rex is probably the coolest dude in the movie, although i bet Del thinks he’s the coolest dude in the movie. It’s difficulty to pick just one character, I like them all !

We love Playmobil – why do you think the Playmobil toy is so great? Con age 12

Lino DiSalvo – I think we are drawn to Playmobil because they are blank slates, we can create any story we want, choice who want to be the hero. I love that Playmobil doesn’t tell you who the hero is in the box, that’s your job. It’s a story telling toy and my kids love it for that reason. They come to work with me almost twice a week because my office is filled with toys πŸ™‚
