Playmobil's Playmospace line was indeed released in 1981. It was a space-themed extension of the popular Playmobil toy line, featuring astronauts, spaceships, and space stations. The Playmospace series captured the imagination of children during a time of increased interest in space exploration, fueled by real-world events such as the Space Shuttle program and the Voyager missions. The Playmospace sets included various space vehicles like rockets, space shuttles, lunar rovers, and even a space station. There were also different types of astronauts with corresponding accessories, such as helmets, oxygen tanks, and tools for exploring the cosmos. These toys allowed children to create their own space adventures and scenarios, fostering creativity and imaginative play. Playmospace became a beloved part of the Playmobil brand and has remained popular among collectors and enthusiasts, with some vintage sets fetching high prices on the secondary market.
