But he doesn't come with the Captains table or any fish fingers.

He does. You have to buy the fish fingers to get him!

I do like how it's clearly an old school proof of purchase style promo.

Totally. I don't have any Playmobil but I might have to go for that offer just for the old school thrill.

Not sure there are promotional packs. The website just wants pictures of receipts I think.

They're doing a promotion that they aren't actually promoting?
Does the head of Birdseye want to keep all the figures for themselves?

What is a mini fish finger anyway? Is this just a scam website designed to capture the hopes and dreams of middle-aged children?

There was a question over the authenticity of this...

Tesco reckon they sell them. There is an article here www.thegrocer.co.uk/fish/birds-eye-launches-mini-fish-fingers/688747.articlethat says: The promotion will be available from 1 April to 30 June and will be supported by in-store shopper activation and a £2.6m media campaign from mid-April including a TV ad, PR, social and out-of-home advertising. So it might be that the promo packs haven't quite reached shops yet. |

Ahhhh, media campaign from mid-April. That makes sense why I haven't seen promo packets yet. But what the heck is "in-store shopper activation"?

Activating shoppers is how Birdseye will take over the world.
I suspect it's marketing speak for 'getting people to buy our stuff'

Only one per household though. The Captain cannot be an army builder.

Can you have an army of Captains?

Both packets have contained only 19, not the promised 20 on the packaging (asteriks be damned!!!).

Woah. That is significantly quicker than 56 days.
That is not replicating the 28 day wait of old. How do you build the anticipation and the daily excitement of the postman coming, only for hopes to be dashed for days on end, when he turns up at Amazon level speed?
