Please let me know if interested.

Nice sets again  And the Gekko one is very tempting for macaques

The geckos are interesting :)

February's CQ release.

I love turtles and have seen many hatchlings up close.  A few, if not all, of these are extremely well done.  I especially love the starred tortoise.

Looking forward to this set.

Anyone can let me know if interested.

Interesting :)

Two pieces of news...

Kaiyodo is releasing four figures at this spring's Dino Expo including the spinosaurus seen here:

Then there's this 44 cm long guy, releasing in March...

Of course I can get all (though I'm wondering if Entertainment Earth will beat my price for US buyers with the same free US shipping it offered for last year's blue whale).  Please PM for details if interested.

Strangely, no April CQ set announced yet (The prehistoric set above changed from a January to March release.).

The elephant is a colossal news and the Spinosaurus is very promising. I can't wait to see more pics of it

Ohhhh, that elephant

That big and so expensive elephant

Thanks for keeping us updated about these Japanese brands. I like a year topic to each company. Everything turns clearer like that.
Now that I know the scale of that elephant, it is easier to understand why it is so expensive, fortunately it is also very well sculpted.
1:12 scale is perfect to use in dollhouses.

I am interested in the turtle set!

My second reaction (after Wow...) to the elephant was that this was the second (after the blue whale) universally iconic species Kaiyodo has done in large scale and it's mildly reasonable to expect a third next year.

Wouldn't be a woolly mammoth after an elephant and not an African lion after another African species. So... Great white shark? T-rex? Apatosaurus? The company seems to like giant squids...

That last set!!!! I NEED that shoebill!!!!

I need that shoebill too!

I wish the zoo sets contained more figures...

I'm more interested in some of the deep-sea fish--a Lancetfish Alepisaurus!

Thanks Breetnj!

One more shoebill In a few years it became a common bird in the toy realm, what an incredible time

The deep sea set is very interresting too

The first thing I did when I saw the zoo set was check to see if tamanduas actually stand up like that. First photo I saw when Google Imaging them was one standing in just that position.

These are my favorite sets Kaiyodo is producing now and I hope, as the broad (to say the least) subject matter warrants, they continue for a very long time.
