| Congradulations Willy, The wolverine is very nice. Do you know that there are only about 200-300 wolverines in the United States? Sad but true |

| Thank you Mihnea, Luke and Lance! Well Mihnea, it is a kind of guppy, but not the normal one... This species was discovered not so many years ago, and is named Endler-guppy, after his dicoverer. It still doesn't have a scientific name. So it is a kind of nephew of the "normal" guppy, and does even interbreed with him, even when that is not wished fornormally. I saw them both in the same habitat in Venezuela, but there they were not mixing, but in fishtanks they do. There are several variations of this little fish(male 2,5 cm, female about 4 cm), as in the "normal" guppy to... Actually, it is more colourfull, the the most variations of the wild "normal" guppy. The Endler has a kind of komma-shaped black spots on his sides, the "normal" guppy has little black spots... I do have the first aquarium generation(F1) of wild cought "normal" guppy's here to, from Colombia, and they don't have much colouir at all... By the way, these fish-family is named after their discoverer to, Mr.Guppy... _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| Subject: Finally some more 2011 Schleichs for me... Tue Jul 26, 2011 2:16 am | |
| As so often when i have to go through the city, i always take a peek at the 2 shops that sell Schleich around here. Now that i don't collect most of the farmlife anymore, the choice was much easier, and i have my 20% discount there, so why not? Here they are: 13672 Brown rabbit 13697 Brown and white rabbit, these 2 were the only 2 available at the moment. 13678 Grey goose 13679 Grey male goose 13680 Grey goose chicks 14341 African elephantbull, not the best and the biggest in business, but he needed to complete his family again... 14634 American bold eagle, i never will understand why they made his feathers so golden and shiny... 14639 Arctic fox cub, mama was nowhere to be seen... 14644 Greater Kuducalf, no papa, and for sure no mama to be seen! 14649 Red foxcub, no mother either... 14650 Eurasian badger, at least one adult... 14651 Eurasian badgercubs, these 2 have a parent. So more hunting to do after all... _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| Ah, Willy! Collecting hardly recent figures! That's great! I love this badger, fortunately I already found it! I think the grey goose is also a nice replica! What do you think about the baby kudu? The parent is nice you have to catch it! Congratulations for all of your new Schleichdictions! :) |

| Thank you all people! Yes, just a few indeed Christophe... I still miss the adult kudu, the calf of the Cape buffalo, the adult red fox, the adult artic fox and some more. But i have most right now.. I love antelopes, and the young and adult kudu's are really nice indeed! :) Yes Mihnea, the grey goose are real wildlife, i think you know... And i still collect pets, cats and dogs to, so they have a right to be in my collection. _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| Congratulations, Willy The geese are really beautyful. The others also, of course, but we don´t see the geese so much here. Perhaps if they had been introduced as wild geese they would be more STS-popular ? |

| I had several very different Schleich lots coming in... To bad, one envelope was very damaged when it came in, and i lost 2 not so very cheap figurines on the way to me, the Schleich Rottweiler, and the later Turkey model. But ok, i still had some other nice stuff in: 14374 Schleich young Lion, i still missed him since the sale of my former Schleich collection, so he is back! 12629 Schleich Classics Mammoth Another pic of him, sorry, i can't make better pics with my cam... 12905 Schleich Die Kleinen Polarbear 17002-1 Schleich-Safari Authentics Wolf, the real old one Together with a newer version 17002-3 Schleich-Safari Authentics Red Fox, the real old one to Together with his newer counterpart to... _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| Congratulations with these wonderful finds WOW! Those Authentics, they are fantastic I love the old mammuths also. As Phil says they are highly stylizied, I love that ! But darned, darned ! I am so sorry for you because you lost those nice figueres Why can`t some people not pack things they have sold to others. It is sheer lazyness ! I mean, - anybody can tear a piece of paper from an old newspaper and wrap each figuere. And if the box they have is not very strong, then they can at lest put the wrapped figueres in a plastic bag inside the box, so they don`t fall out. It only "costs" a few minutes ! But of course it adds to the joy of getting a package if the figueres are nicely wrapped, - like the exitement of unpacking an angel from layer upon layer of wrapping |

| Thank you all! Well, i always let my stuff from Germany send into a Grossbrief International, that is much cheaper. That can be an air-bubble envelope(which was the case here), or even a package, as long as the totall sizes don't go over 90cm, so lxbxh. Up to 500 gramm is it only 3,45 euro, up to 2 kg is 7 euro. That is much cheaper then what some sellers ask... But it is not insured, and in this case i was unlucky for one time... _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| In 2 seperate lots, i had these 2 Schleich cats coming in... 14023 Schleich Tigress The one i already had, is much browner in colouration, and the eyes are differently painted, although both made in Portugal, made between 1989-1996. This one is more orange, less damaged, and the eyes are painted a little more painted. 14186 Schleich Lioncub, one that i was still missing, and i found this one in great condition, made in Germany, made between 2001-2006. _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman
