Arrakai's newcomers for 2011

Yes, I agree! The gazella from Nayab looks nice! Unfortunately Atosa have some Nayab sets here in Portugal but not all figures and unfortunately not this gazelle!

Here is the rest of the animals I got this summer;

Some gorgeous fishes and a crane from elastolin. Got these in a trade with widukind

Did you say you have not got many figueres this summer ?

That mammoth is awesome, gosh I LOVE it
Uhh, but I suppose it is almost impossible to find

The others are fantastic, too, of course, CONGRATULATIONS

I love the giraffes and Mammoth!! They are so great, congrats Anna the elastolin from Andreas look lovely, especially the crane!

Thanx

I dont know how rare the mamoth is, I had one befor, but that one had no tusks left, and it looked like someone had been chewing on it

So when i found this one instead, I threw away the other one

Love the fish, but all of them are very nice, great new additions!

The mammoth is Invicta. It is not that rare.

Very nice animals too, i love the Preiser Giraffes!!!!

Really nice giraffes!the mammoth was not made by Britains however.As you have said its been made for the british natural history museum.They also made some other models mainly dinosaurs but they also made a very good glytodont which I have along with the mammoth.

The Preizer giraffes are gorgeous. at times this brand produces great figurines.
And the crane is amazing. Could you share some more pics of him, please? For a closer view.

Great new figurines Anna!
The little hardplastic Preiser giraffes are copy's of the earlier softer hardplastic Hausser Elastolin models of course, this is the HO scale, isn't it, more for the railway...
The fish and birds of the Hausser Elastolin brand are sets of 10, so you need to find te rest if you like.
If you need some help on the names of the fish and birds, i can help you out, because the description is in German, and not very accurate, and there are still a few mysteries for me to...
The mammoth is a fantastic model by the way!

Thanx Willy

Yes, the giraffes are inded HO scale, they are minimum But I think that is part of their charm Fortunetly, there is a great help for the fishes = Google! I already looked them up there, to know which species it is (in swedish). Great tool, that thing

But big thanx on the offer

Beautiful figures, congratulations! :)

I must admitt that i couldn't find some species, even with google, which is my primary tool for these matters to...
Never heard of a "Barberpferd"...

And also not of the Eremitvogel and Futtermeise. But i think they mean with barberpferd a in german "Barbe" -barbus barbus.

Yes, the "Eremitenvogel" has the same problem, the "Futtermeise" seems to be a blue tit(Blaumeise).
My thought about the Barberfish went the same way, but the fish doesn't look like it, that is the problem...
The "Saugfisch" is a mistery for me to, the "Weiskopfvogel" also...
And why did they choose for one tropical fish in this set, the Siamese fighting fish(Betta splendens(wildform)?

Ok, not only birdies, but i like birdies, and I found a lot of them last month, like a whole set of nayab birdies, and most of them looked realy good, so I am realy happy

(not al of these are nayab, there are some chinas there too)

Two little kitties with crowns for brand, and a hood hound (such cool dogs , does anybody know a site in europe that sells them??? )

GOSH !

So many fantastic models

I love them all, but the New-ray deer are fabulous, I think with those antlers they could be some of the special kinds, that Hunter Joe also sells

And the huge horror-bird..help, RUN
And those very strange Britains, I hope somebody ( Willy???) can tell us more about them

And, and...Anna, you have really, really found so many goodies this month, it is incredible, - thanks for sharing

Congratulation!!! More nice animals!!!! I like the NewRay deers!!!!

More fantastic finds, congrats Anna those nayab birds are awesome

The dinos figurines are great! So good looking.

I like the new ray axis deer as well, can you give any more information on them? Like where did you find them? Is there a website for the figures? Things like that, thanks.

Congrats Anna!

Nice little water-dwellers.
