And a big fumble with the Pergrine falcon... it is disguised with a Long-eared owl suit

Although individual photos aren't available yet--the Toy Fish Factory Arapaima and Piranha will need to be a part of this thread!

(and yes, I'm going to make this reminder for each continent's thread )

I agree ! It looks like a magnificent model

From these presented until now, I am sure I will get the golden lion tamarin... it looks almost like a composition model.

I have the same choice Rogério, I think 2018 will be a Papo primates year for me

Yess! That looks amazing! I'm really exicted for next year! I'm a brazilian and my main collection is for brazilian animals!

Is it too much to wish for a Rhea? lol

It would be a great thing, I'm affraid the rheas are too much ostrichlike to be released produced but who knows? The only officila Rhea toy is still the Starlux one.

I don't have it anymore, so Beatrice would have to check (she bought it from me!)--but the ratite in the K&M Australia Down Under Tube was marked as a Rhea (for some reason...)

I am 99% certain it was marked as a Rhea, even though, of course, that makes no sense in an Australia tube! There would be no other logical reason for me to list it that way though, since those were the days when the animal name was marked on the figure...

And it doesn't even look like a rhea, it's definitley a emu.

Indeed

That's why I need someone to check their figure; I'm resonably certain that it said rhea on mine (again, birds aren't my thing, so I would have gone with whatever it was stamped with)

Wenno released a rhea recently. Or better, they repainted an ostrich model to a rhea and introduced it in a South American set. Here! ... yes, we need defintely a rhea.

I am interested in the Wenno Indian Ocean set (three crabs, looks to marketed as species level!). Anyone know a good source? The only one I found ships only within Australia.

So here are photos of the Toy Fish Factory models! I know I put them elsewhere, but now I know they'll be here!

The South American Species:

Piranha (probably red-bellied, although the tail colour and orange belly are more like Serrasalmus altipinus):

Arapaima (it's a little long-finned, but nice. enough. Maybe there's a longer-finned species?):

The job is done... At last
