Wow

Unknown to me

Hello,

I bought this frog on ebay but I can't find precise info on the brand, the series, the year of production etc.

The title says "Kaiyodo Yujin Japanese Exclusive Golden Mantella Frog", so the brand is Kaiyodo or Yujin?

The description also says that this model was only sold in Japan and has been retired for years. I also know that this is the B model and that there is an A model with a different color (pink I think)

Anyway, if you have any information about this Golden Mantella?

Looks like the Yujin golden mantella (https://toyanimal.info/wiki/Yujin_Primary_color_Madagascan_Golden_frog). May have been re-released by Takara Tomy.

Thank you, It does indeed look a lot like, so the brand is Yujin.

Does anyone know the brand of these toob-sized figures? All except the small domestic cat are marked "CHINA". I am guessing the hyena is a Nayab. The larger domestic cat (?) has been repainted to be a caracal.

I got this tiger shark in a batch of PV figures.... But I did not locate its provenance, any idea?
Thanks!

Never heard of that. But a another mystery brand. And the letters reminds me at the K&M rubber figures.

Unkown to me ????

That's what I thought, Andreas... What got me thinking was that it came in a lot where all the figures were PV and included a rare maned wolf color variant....

who knows these  2 figures?

The raccoon is different from the Hausser elastolin, it is an Heinerle-manurba, you can see it HERE

Okay, I must be at Home and Look For my Figures. I beleave I have I have an much smaller one. Benno.

Stance has been inspired by Britains but all the hollow-cast ostriches I have seen pictured in Norman Joplin's 'Great Book of Hollow-Cast Figures' have a base. Therefore, likely to be of non-British manufacture.

Sorry I cannot help further Christophe.

Thank you for your help Chris

I didn’t think about the Britains pose but it reminds me the T&B one, just fatter

Hello Kikimalou,
I am back home and I found some ELASTOLIN Raccon in my collection, but no HEINERLE Raccon, and I compared my Raccons with pictures of an ELASTOLIN-catalog and with the picture of the HEINERLE-Africanfigurescatalog and with your Raccon and what you write is okay!
You show us the Racon from HEINERLE! and I have the Raccon of ELASTOLIN - painted and unpainted - and when I saw of the unpainted Raccon I thought this Raccon is the HEINERLE Raccon.
See my pictures.
Have an nice day.
Benno

The little baboon is from this set.It was sold in ELC shops many years ago but I think they are just made in china figures.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Thanks, great to know!

Some goldfish in the style of gashapons, though they are slightly larger. History on them is that a US goldfish importer/breeder got a bunch of them from a Thai breeder. No marks of any sort on them or their bases. I believe these 9 are the only figures in the set, as least as the importer who brought them into the US got them.
