| Schleich Figures | Info Home |
| Schleich was first founded in 1935 by Friedrich Schleich,
but it was not until the 1950's that the world famous Schleich figurines first went into
real production with figurines such as Snoopy and The Smurfs being amongst the first to be
created. During the 60's and 70's Schleich mostly concentrated on comic character figures such
as Snoopy, Smurfs, Muppets, Lucky Luke, Asterix and Tintin. It wasn't until the 1980's that
Schleich first started producing the Animal range that they are so famous for. Schleich's headquarters is in Schwäbisch Gmünd, Germany. The design of the Schleich products and the creation of the required tools are done in house, thus enabling Schleich to control the initial vital steps of creating a new product. The production itself takes place at the company's German headquarters and in a number of production facilities in foreign countries. Schleich products are marketed world wide. The Schleich Philosophy: "As a manufacturer of toys Schleich carry a special responsibility towards parents and children. It is Schleich's aim to constantly live up to the image of a developer and supplier of top quality products with an educational aspect. Schleich products are developed with the assistance of parents, teachers and children and are therefore especially designed for children's hands. The design of Schleich products is as realistic and naturalistic as possible. This enables children to experience the large variety of nature - from domestic animals on a farm to wild animals in the jungle. When deciding on licensing products such as comic figurines Schleich pay careful attention to their character and the message they carry. Educational aspects play a more important part than possible sales potential." |
