Roger's Arrivals! updated 17th October 2015

Thanks Susanne, Jonas, Andreas, Abby, Kayla, Gerry, Christophe and LeeAnn!
I appreciate specially your good words towards Agata's golden takin, yes, Agata, the talented lady that said that the reason of starting with her new owls project is because she's not very good with mammals!

I was searching for my older posts Rogério... Nothing since 2th november I always have the feeling I already post on your topic, I guess I am getting older and older very quickly

I 'm happy to watch the Britains invasion of Portugal, you will have to send me a list one day or to make a topic like your foxes' one.

I also love the Pinta Island turtle and the very nice takin

Thanks Kiki, I'll have to reorganize my Britains collection  soon, I noticed that most of extras I received were in fact new figures to my collection although I thought they were spares. I think in terms of moulds it is close from complete considering Plastic zoo animals. I am also getting forgetful, do you remember that silliy topic when I was completely crazy of happiness for receiving a box of Britains from you?

This topic was supposed to be used to show my Britains figures but I haven't received any Britains for a long time and I forgot it.
Well, I hope new members won't visit it in Christmas time or they'll think I am a kind of crazy croc!

Man I love that old Papo Bison.

Me too, I use to say that all figures Papo replaced are much better in their 2nd generation except the bison. Both generations are equally nice. Thanks!

Love the Takin by Agata So cute

Congratulations on the wonderful additions Roger!

Thanks Carola and Tim!

Beautiful lot of animals.

Takin is wonderful creation of Agata.

Variety of foxes are splendid too,specially the large.

Congrats Roger

I'm terribly behind on everyone's additions. Those Britains you got a while back are just lovely! Did you find anyone to make your elephant tusks yet? If not, I volunteer; it would be no trouble.

The dingo's pose is really pleasant, and Agata's takin is full of charm. I like the look in its eye. Lovely additions!

Nicole is lucky to have such a wonderful crocodile for an uncle, - as we say in Danish : "When it rains on the priest, it drips on the clerk"

Straight into my favourite variations on how to express this notion.

There is already a long time without updating my collection. Here goes a big part of my additions, not all.
All these additions were possible through trades, purchases but mainly thanks to several generous gifts from STS members!

First I told Susanne that I was starting interest in snakes and see what happened? ...she even included one to a local friend.... and I'm not showing all!

I got in love when I saw [https://sts-forum.forumieren.de/t14681p15-papo-2015-polar-bear]this famous picture[/url], they entered my wish list, Kosta offered his help to get them for me but as I told him I was not abble of affording them at the moment, he just surprised me with them. Isn't it precious?

As everyone can read, my collecting hobby is being possible these days, mainly because of the generousness of this wonderful STS people! My big thanks to everyone!

Wow. Congrats!

Rogério, your collection looks like a Kindness' tsunami. Actually, you deserve it

Ssssssnakes So many at once. Crocodile has new reptile friends
Big congrats Roger, very kind of all the people who gifted

Big congratulations friend! I especially love the PV figurines :) and i am not sure if i know the coral snake :) I think your vintage monochrome figurines are by one of the german makers Domplast,  Heinerle or Manurba :) I also like the vintage spanish brands and hope of more informations :)

WOW ! Pech Hermanos
I never heard about those before , they are utterly charming

Such beautyful additions, all of them
That pangolin !!!!! Those bears ! The PVs, and ...

Hey, you Crocodile, - don't be modest ! Your pictures are fabulous

So many and so great models Roger
Even I`m hearing this sound ``ssssssssssssssss`` from your photos
Now you have a big team of snakes
I like very much all these models...especialy the Pfeiffer Giant Anteater!
Thank`s to your photos, now Safari Ltd postosuchus is also on my wish list
About the small, monochrome, animal models, like Andreas said, they are Domplast, except the polar bear in the front..and the donkey (these two are maybe Hong Kong copies)

wow Roger. those newcomers are all impressive!

Make sure you have enough to feed all those snakes!


I LOVE that little zebra foal! Congrats on all these newcomers

Thanks Laura :) Kiki Karin Andreas Susanne Kosta Gerry and LeeAnn!

Thanks Andreas, I'll investigate a little more about these Domplast. The coral snake I don't know the exact species, if it fits any of them, maybe it turns in something that you don't have yet. About Pech Hermanos, they're not very accurate but some of their figures are ambiguous like the buffalo, so probably they were based in some unusual species "accidentally". You can find about htem on Tai - here - still very uncomplete, Incha is slowly posting his collection there.

Thanks, the pangolin and anteater are my favorite among them all. As I told to Andreas, Incha is working the brand Pech Hermanos on TAI. They have some fighting figures in a concept similar to Reisler eagle hunting fox, curiously, one of them is a crocodile fighting with a snake.  Spanish toy industry is very rich and interesting and they were the first country using the animal sensationalism in their tv documentaries, so PECH explores a little that tradition being the eagle hunting deer clearly an icon of that marriage.

Thanks for information about monochromatic figures, TAI is particularly poor in Domplast section. Pfeiffer anteater is a little piece of history featuring what I traditionally call my favorite animal and I am glad my picture helped you deciding about postosuchus, it is an excellent figure!

Thank you :)

So much so nice figures Roger! big congrats! I can't pick just one there's so many great ones! The Safari ltd dino looks interesting.. And lineols! !

Congrats, Roger!
Very nuce additions you have there

Congrats Rogerio, especially the northern tamandua is an incredible catch! thank you once more for the pale-throated sloth!!

Thanks Jonas, Anasta and Lance!

You're welcome Andreas. By the way, we wanted to know about your additions topic being splitted... now you see mine is also broken in two parts. Curiously it happened quite over 1000 posts but after being splitted automatically, one of the parts have the traditional 990 posts.

T E R R I B L E additions Roger Congrats

Oooh Roger, such wonderful additions! Congratulations! I absolutely adore your tamandua <3 Well done on getting all these beauties
