“This collaboration embodies the spirit of ESA Strategy 2040: opening Europe’s space ambitions to society through partnerships, innovation, and education,” said Anne-Sophie Bradelle, Head of ESA Communication Department. “By transforming scientific missions into hands-on play, we’re helping young Europeans see themselves in the future of space.”

“Working closely with ESA allows us to create toys that are inspiring, scientifically grounded, and packed with play value,” said Bahri Kurter, CEO (Vorstand) Playmobil. “We want children not just to play, but to wonder – to imagine what it might feel like to explore Mars for real.”

The ESA Space Range collection is available from 9 January across Europe, as well as in additional international markets including Mexico and the United States.
