The Playmobil production in Zirndorf has secured a significant victory at the German Toy Award 2025. The company's "Sky Trails Starter Kit" has not only won in the "Game and Technology" category but also clinched the overall winner title.

Even before its launch, the "Sky Trails Starter Kit" caused a stir, with 85% of children and parents across all markets expressing enthusiasm for the product, according to market research.

After a four-week online vote with nearly 20,000 votes, the twelve finalists were determined. The "Sky Trails Starter Kit" was among these finalists, and a jury of experts chose it as the overall winner from the finalists.

The German Toy Award was presented for the 24th time this year, with 56 new toy innovations being nominated in six categories. The double distinction of being the overall winner and winner in the "Game and Technology" category is considered particularly effective for the "Sky Trails Starter Kit".

Following its victory, Geobra Brandstätter Stiftung & Co. KG, the company behind Playmobil, will continue to manage the production of the "Sky Trails Starter Kit".
