| Good day, I've recently acquired a Condor - but struggling to find any Schleich markings on it . The base is completely flat where I would expect the markings. When I compare the model to the 16708 on TAIits almost the same albeit a few colouring changes as I would normally expect. But in terms of mould, its the same. Do others have a condor with markings on? |

| A lot of the older birds do not have clearly moulded wordings on the base. I have come across this before on many late 90s, early 2000s models where the moulding is poor in relation to the company stamp. Yours is probably one that just did not mould well. The plastic used them was also different.
Do post some pictures.... |

| Thanks for the feedback, I don't see any markings under the tail either. Its the only animal I have without any markings, so I was a little concerned at first that it wasn't the 'real deal' . Like you say though Suzanne, its a beauty of a model at 1:8 scale. Once I get home from work, I'll take some photos! Thanks all! |

| Here's my recent addition. I too Love the old Bird of Prey series!! I got this fella for a bargain price of £1.50 albeit with some paint missing - but that's fine for me :-) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |
