Schleich 2019

assuming it is legitimate, I can see the tarantula by simply doing a Google search :-)

Andreas: even if you change your original post, the quotes still have the original clickable links to the website.

Gwaine: please also put in the upper post 'no links' and that if they have a source, share it with others through DM.
Also the little month thingy I wrote in this topic.

The months thingy?

I didn't quite know how to tell my senions off for placing a link, haha, good you removed them.

Following the Schleich rules, photos of new items can be posted 1/2 months before the actual product lies in store.
I think we all can do the math and say that the first photos for January 2019 can be placed here in November 2018.
May 2019 for any other first half year releases, to be save with the months.

This month thingy Tessa XD
Don't worry I keep an eye out, even in my vacation, in this Schleich topic.

Yes ma'am

I've seen now the Bayala figures and i must say: Wonderful! Return of a dark unicorn.
The star pegasus is also very beautiful.

Probably a silly question but this is the first time I have actually found the list before pictures were officially released by Schleich so I am normally behind the game haha.
I was wondering if this is a final list or if they update their website with other models? The reason I ask this is because I noticed that the horses listed under Schleich Horse Club have the product codes that link numerically with the Farm World products which I noticed in previous years don't. So the Morgan Stallion of this year was released in the Farm World range so it numerically is with the Farm World animals and in the catalogue while the Holstein Gelding for example and the other horses in Schleich Horse Club are not numerically linked in the middle like the horses in the Farm World section :) Sorry, I hope that makes sense. It just makes me wonder if the horses listed are with the Farm World section and the Horse Club ones haven't been released yet? I was also surprised there weren't as many horses as there has been in previous years because the Horse Club range seems popular. Plus I noticed in previous years they release around the same number of animals (I collect them animals so I have no idea about Bayala) but there seems to be less than previously released. Sorry to bombard you with questions :)

It seems this year, they decided to ease up on the horses, but I think the sets are going to yield a lot of horses as well.

They sometimes bring out some breeds for farmlife rather than horseclub. They just do that. But this is indeed the full list, it seems.

Ah awesome, glad my question made sense :) I don't mind the ease up of the horses, I am hoping it means more time and detail may go into them then :)
Also you wouldn't happen to know what an Animatrax looks like? I have been trying to google what kind of dinosaur it is (like this years I thought it was one I had not heard of like the Tawa and the Psittacosaurus) but I can't find anything. Not a picture of the model but just the species in general :)

It looks a bit like an ankylosaur. I have not seen photo's of the model yet. Most of the pictures or of the horses/farm life.

The name is misspelled in the top post; it should be Animantarx.

Many stores in UK are no longer selling Schleich and I understand why - they're becoming boring and predictable - 2019 displays this perfectly. The stores still selling them run VERY limited lines (or still holding last years stock as they're not selling). You see that only Internet based stores now supply the majority of the new range. I can't help but feel that the "select next years animal" is a fix - I too voted for African Wild Dogs. I would like to see Schleich post the percentages to see the spread of answers. Anyway, that's my 2cents - I'm just pleased I've got the majority of the older models. Still looking for a Beluga whale if anyone can help me out?! :-)

I have seen some of the pictures some days ago but there are some in this list that I haven't seen yet. Is there any picture of the kuokka? Quite surprising to see it in Schleich's range. Prehistoric series also has a unusual release, the animantarx, who could expect it? If there are pics of these could please someone pm me?
these topics used to be a big party and a big promotion to all new Schleich products. Now thanks to Schleich strategy, this is a quite weird thread. However, I want to thank Tessa for all effort and for informing us as much as possible.

And nobody can say, that Schleich make no new species. In Wildlife, Farmlife and Dinosaurs they do. ^^

No pictures of the kuokka yet, will pm you if I see them :)
Indeed, people from all over where joining the conversation, even our silent readers.
Tessa indeed does a good job in this topic, that is why I let her open a 'offficial' Schleich 2019 topic, she is on it almost every day with hot new news if needed :)

Karin, your moderation work is also being precious and I am quite relieved that it is not me who is doing it.
Thanks also for keeping me updated with the new pictures you find.

No problem Roger! You have much to do here on forum, I am happy I can help! :)

I largely agree with these sentiments. Even though I love the idea of the animantarx and some of the other more unusual choices, there is still not a lot that interests me this year. It's mainly because most of these animals seem like repeats.

The good news is that they could use this opportunity to improve. Even though they have a lot of Spinosaurs and Gigonotosaurs, few are accurate, up-to-date models. Again, I'll have to wait and see what they do.

Only new for Schleich, not for figurines :)

I think the animantarx was never released before by any company. So it may be the exception that proves the rule.

Okay, dinosaurs i dont know.

I'm looking forward to there being a dachshund :)

Not only dinosaurs. Dogs and wild animals also. None of the great brands have a shiba inu.

Mojo released a Shiba last year in their pets line.

Ok, right. But there is no retailer, who sells them.
