COLLECTA 2018: Mini Box Sets - Mini Horses (A1109) & Mini Farm Animals (A1110)

Hot on the heels from the first set of minis last year they are now releasing a mini horse and farm animals set.

Official text

The minis have proven to be a highly attractive item with a big demand over all sales areas. Due to the success CollectA decided to enlarge the line further and to introduce two more mini sets to the line: For this year CollectA have developed the mini horses and the mini farm animals. As already realized in the previous mini lines we again paid utmost attention to the specific characteristic of each animal. Paintwork and physiognomy are as detailed in the minis as they are in the popular sized models.

Release

Farm: early 2018
Horses: mid-2018

I can't wait to see it on your border collie shelf!

I really like the horses as well, especially the shire and clydesdale

I love the fam set !!!

Then I'll have small farm animals from PV, Safari ( Authentics), Papo, and Collecta ....are there others ?  

And the horses look great too

For 2019 I wish a set of prehist mammals

Cute!!!

I find the mini horses set particularly nice. Thanks for sharing!

The only negative thing is that the shire horse is in both sets

It irritates me green that the Safari TOOBS, that they re-use models

Very nice

This made my day. I don't believe it's an English expression, but we also have that same saying in Dutch.
So I know exactly how you feel.

In Holland we even take it a step further.
We yell: "It irritates me green and yellow!"

Very interesting! In Portuguese language we have " ficar verde de raiva" which translates to get green of rage. However, I'd rather to use "pior que uma barata" - worse than a cockroach - that means almost the same thing.

Ha! Worse than a cockroach!
I can just imagine a cockroach standing there, shaking its 4 fists in the air with rage!

I don't like also they are models that already exist. Anyway, could be funny have the same animal in different size.

In Spanish, "poner verde a alguien" ("make" green to someone) means to critize someone; usually someone who isn't there in this moment. And I think also you can use it the colour talking about yourself when you are jealous ("ponerse verde de envidia") but I'm not sure

I really think its funny that it is about the color ''green'' in emotion around the world.
We are in the Neterlands, ''blinded by anger'' (not red)
but we can be white(y) around the nose if we are sick
(irritated green and yellow yes,) but also ''green'' of being sick, like you need to puke XD.
Its so funny this hahah i'm sorry i'm having an inside joke here about the colors...

Back to the horses,, they could at least have done 2 different colors for the shire in both sets.
and i would like to have them in different sizes yes :)
