Schleich 2015 list of releases with pictures!

About the tinkers... Are you sure they are going to be sold separately? Or it´s only somebody confused the images and the ones that will be sold separately are the ones in other color?

That might be the issue, maybe they will be in another color, we can't be sure I guess..

If they are the same color, I'm going to send an E-mail

I find these horses much closer to the good old horses than with what we have seen these last years. Actually I like most of them.
It is true that there is any new breed to the market and that most are using known molds, though there are some new breeds to Schleich like the American Curl and Ardennais. Actually, the Ardennes is my favorite, body conformation looks quite correct for that strong breed. I also think that the Pinto stallion is very nice, flashy but very different from what we are used, surely with that mane and tail Schleich will use the softer plastic. On the other hand, TWH is almost the same but very beautiful too.
Icelandic is very feminine with that mane but in a very positive way contrarily with what happened with silly braids. Knabstrupper seems the worst of this batch. Well, I hope they're not using braids in new lion.
I think we are seeing Schleich ressurection.
Later I'll update first post with pictures.

Well, I expected something totally else, so Schleich pleases me a bit this year!

I like the ideas they had. Eventhough yes, I'm not fond of the Tinkers. Like I've said before, the shape of the mares head isn't that good.. I don't say it is bad, but I'm sure Schleich could've done better. Irish Cobs tend to have a more smaller, pony-ish head. It can really depend though. If you compare my mares head with my geldings head, you'll see a HUGE difference - literally. I really like the black and white version of the Tinker stallion, MUCH better paintjob than on the old model as far as I can see.

I really like the idea of the draft horse - guessing it's a Belgian draft? Well.. The anatomy is a bit odd. My eyes hurt when I look at the model. Some things just don't seem right! This stallion for example..

Excellent Belgian draft in my opinion. The legs of Schleich's model are simply to short for the big body. And you know what I miss too? A nice long beautiful tail.. - Sadly enough they still dock the tails for so called 'medical reasons' here in Belgium.. Makes me sad to see these foals with their tiny tails trying to shoo flies away. Today is actually the day of the Belgian draft in my village since they've been bred here.

I don't have any critism on the other models, they look fine. A lot better than last year. I'm totally going to buy the Tinkers - just because I'm a big lover of the breed.  

I'm pretty sure that these are the "end-figures". But the mail need to go to Toysrus not Schleich.

I don´t mind where I´m going to send it to, I´m going to ... Calling them exclusives is a total rip-off.

The Tinkers are the final products. And for me it was clear from the beginning that these will be 2015 models, so I'm not dissapointed.

Ohh!! Ardenner is amazing!!!!!
Ijslander mare is also wonderful with very expressive mane  
I like also curly horses family (mainly the unusual choice of breed).
Knubstrupper looks very strange to me, the neck is too long. :/
Pinto stallion-what a nice pose!!!! (only the mane is too messy maybe?)
I'm very positively surprised with schleich horses this year!!!!

Even though the heads shapes and general sculpting style is similar to previous years there is so much variety in poses and new breeds are very original, not made by the company before. I think it is positive change!!

Exactly my thoughts!

I love the Ardennes stallion and foal, the icey is great, except the hooves are terrible, really like the curly mare, don't really care for the foal. Liking the pose of the pinto, just hate the head and the m/t.

IMHO these are much better than last year. I'll probably be getting a few but for customs.

Here are photos of new Schleich horses :)

I bet the first one's name is Fabio!

Some are really nice.
Much better than I anticipated to be honest.
Congratulations to all Schleich horse lovers!
2015 isn't going to be such a bad year after all!

TWH is, for me, best Schleich horse ever and this color looks like better than the older one :)

I like these new ''strange'' breeds.

Kanbstrupper is a bred which I like a lot.

So, in addition, I like so much this 2015 horse year part II

Except for the ponies I love them a lot

The second picture (the tinker?) isn't so similar to the old tinker?

Nice :) now i hope for interesting wildlife figurines :)

Not that bad.
I kind of like most of them.

These are not that bad. But they would be much better with smaller eyes. The rest is a laziness + ugliness.

They're actually better than I thought. but the eighth one and the last one look awfully familiar. It makes me a bit more hopeful for the new wildlife.

I love them all!!

I love that time every day we are getting more and more informations

The horses are ok, the Ardenner Stallion and the Pinto Stallion are really cool.
But I won't buy them anyway

I hope for wildlife news

Thanks Martin, I was just working on it but needed to went out for a while. Great that you uploaded these pictures.
I added numbers and breeds on your post, I think I did it correctly.
I think we can use these picture on main 2015 Schleich thread and merge these topics once discussion is going long there.
I already commented that they are better than I expected and closer to what we were used before the braids fever. Some are really original, like the pinto stallion for example. I like a lot the Ardennais although it has the traditional very cute face of Schleich horses but that's a minor thing when compared with many aspects of last years. Knabstruper is really strange, the leopard pattern helps distratcting a little but its conformation is almost as weird as the Arabian mare from last year. By the way, surprised that there's no new Arabian stallion.

Thank you Martin for posting them all together. Now I don't have to keep clicking links

Bryan, permission should be asked with personal pictures not with this kind of pictures. There aren't copyrights on foruns, only Schleich could copyright them. Also, pictures are not being used in a commercial way, only for information purposes.
Actually Schleich is very happy that their pictures are everywhere!

You are a author of these photos (because Roger said it right). They are product of a company and they are already on Internet... Logo is still there so I don´t understand your problem.

The Ardennes foal is gorgeous!!! The stallion isn't really that bad, either. I think he came out a little on the chubby side, but I still plan on getting him.

Gregory, see here the picture Wikipedia is using in their breed entry in English.
