A personalised piggy bank that tells a story

A piggy bank is useful. A piggy bank featuring a child’s favourite character and their name engraved on it is a gift they’ll treasure for years to come.
The character sits proudly on the lid and acts as a handle: simply give it a tug to open the piggy bank and count your savings.

For which occasions?

• Birth and christening: a first personalised gift featuring their first name and date of birth.
• Birthdays: the character reflects the child’s passion (football, dancing, firefighters, animals…).
• Christmas: an original gift to slip under the tree, filled with a few coins or chocolates.
• Learning to save: a practical goal for their first bit of pocket money.
• Adults: retirement, a gift for a colleague, a leaving party, a holiday piggy bank.
• Original tip box: a character reflecting your profession (waiter, chef, hairdresser, firefighter, etc.) for a counter that’s sure to turn heads.

A wide selection of characters

Our selection of Playmobil® characters covers all areas of life:

• Women with short or long hair, blonde, chestnut or brown.
• Men with different hair colours and lengths, sometimes with a moustache or beard.
• Historical and adventure characters: princesses, kings, pirates, sheriffs and Native Americans…
• Sportspeople: football, basketball, judo, gymnastics, motorcycling…
• Professionals: healthcare, firefighters, police officers, flight attendants, waiters, chefs, media professionals…

Fancy a different hairstyle?
We can adapt a character’s hairstyle to suit your project, so that they look even more like the person you’re giving it to.

Fancy a closer look?

To offer a wide choice, we sometimes limit the number of copies of the same model shown in the photos: ask us about the available variations, and we’ll send you photos.

Businesses, do bear this in mind for your tips!
A waiter for your restaurant, a chef for your food truck, a nurse for your practice…
With a character that reflects your profession, your money box becomes an original tip jar that catches your customers’ eye.

Fully customisable

1. The character

• With a character: choose one from our selection (see photos) and enter its code (e.g. F12 or S2-5) in the ‘Customisation’ field.
• Without a character: you choose a character from your own collection. Simply specify whether it is an adult or child character, so that we can position the mount correctly in relation to the engraving. This is becausethe module on the lid is not oriented in the same way in relation to the text depending on whether the figure you attach is an adult or a child.

2. The engraving

• Single-sided engraving: on the top of the lid (first name, date, short message, logo).
• Double-sided engraving: on the top and inside of the lid, for a longer message that is revealed when the piggy bank is opened. Ideal for a sweet message, a date of birth or a dedication.

3. The colour of the box
White, black, yellow, orange, red, pink, apple green, forest green, aqua blue, safety blue, grey, purple.

Please specify all your choices (character code, text to be engraved, colour) in the ‘Personalisation’ field (maximum 250 characters), then click ‘Save’ before adding to your basket.

How is it made?

Frequently asked questions

Is the figurine included?
Yes, if you choose the ‘with figure’ option. Otherwise, you can attach a figure from your own collection.

Does the figure come off?
It is attached to the lid’s base by its feet. The child can remove it to play with, then put it back in place.

Can I see a detailed view of the character before ordering?
Yes, please email us at info@pulsai.com: we’ll send you a detailed photo of the character, along with the available variants.

Can you change the character’s hairstyle?
Yes, we can adapt the character’s hairstyle to suit your project. Please specify your request in the ‘Customisation’ field or by email.

What is the difference between single-sided and double-sided engraving?
Double-sided engraving adds a message to the inside of the lid, which is revealed when the piggy bank is opened.

Is it suitable for a young child?
The character and its accessories are small parts: as with the original toys, the money box is not suitable for children under 3 years of age without supervision.
