| I love the pictures! Fast and eficient!  Thanks, thanks!!! It is really huge the difference between the crocodiles, the new one is by far more detailed, much more teeth, more scales and less toes!  Deers are terribly different, they don't even look the same species but we already know that in France adulte red deers had spots until this year!  |

These were all Schleich. I also have the lion cubs, but forgot to take the photos because they're in my trade box and not the shelves. I guess someone else has them as well, or I can post them later if no one else has done it.
I love the old wolf! I think it's hard to find a wolf figure that is arresting and doesn't just look like a large dog. The wolf on the far left is just fantastic. (I'm waiting for the Timberwolf from Mojo Fun to arrive and have high hopes for that.) Thank you for sharing! |

| It´s a wonderful topic! Here are some giraffes. The oldest one is on the far left side, then follows the bull of 1994. Next are mother and child from 1999. At the end on the right, female giraffe and her baby from 2004.

| They are SO lovely, Roger ! I am really impressed by the quality and diversity of your Britains collection You have not collected them for very long, and already you have such rarities The newer camel baby has a special place in my heart, because it was one of a few that I bought many years ago, in the middle of the 1970`s if I remember right. I was looking for Reisler, but the shop didn`t have them any more, so I chose some from a brand that I didn`t know...they we Britains |

- I'd loved to see your reaction! Reisler has a very unique design, from the few figures I know they share a unique style, it would be hard to accept such a different brand. I enjoy the crazy style of Reisler, Britains figures look like nice boys in comparison! :)
You are right ! Now you mention it I can see the shop in my mind, and remember that I wasn`t totally pleased with my new purchase. They felt heavy and clumsy I picked them out because they we species that I had not seen by Reisler. At that time I had no idea what Reisler had really made or not, I had never seen a catalogue. They weren`t handeled out to any child as they are now. Ohhh, the good, old days |

| This is such a great topic; I have to try to make a useful contribution. Two Schleich Ibex. The first, on the left, is 14235 from 1996-2005. The second, on the right, is 14366 from 2007-2010. I'm still surprised they retired either of them. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I'm pretty sure I like the older one better. And this is not just because I like older models. In most cases, I prefer Schleich models from the 2000's rather than the models of the same animals from the 1990's. But in this case, the older Schleich Ibex is just so beautifully sculpted. The muscle definition and the face are lovely. The more recent one is painted nicely, but the older one is arresting.

| Thanks Scott, you are not the first member saying that the old Ibex is better! That's very interesting once I have the newer one, I'm happy with it, and I'm really curious to compare them in real life. Your great picture makes me think that you are right! :) |

| Thanks for showing Susanne! I don't know about the material, only that all of them look vintage for me!  Papo is very imaginative with poses. If they cannot make a perfect zebra why don't they make it in an unusual pose?  |

| Here are a few varyingly sketchy comparisons from my vaults. I recently received a lovely batch of Britains cattle from DaveScriv, so it's mostly those I've got to show. I'm none too knowledgeable on Britains or vintage molds in general, and am sure to have made mistakes in their descriptions. If you spot any errors, feel free to correct me. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The Britains Ltd. vintage and newer (1979) Deetail 1359 sable antelopes and lying calves (newer Deetail calf 2139 unintuitively on the left, vintage 2159 on the right). The vintage sable is so flimsy I'd be inclined to presume it a Chinese copy if it weren't for that it is marked. (I guess it could still be a copy of course, mark or no mark.) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Britains standing dairy cows from left to right: Britains Heralds (?), unknown, older (1969) 2152 and newer (1984) Deetail 2152. I have the stockily built, early lead-mold one, too, but forgot to include it in the picture. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Britains grazing dairy cow 2133 from the old lead mold with later (1984) Deetail mold 2133; and 2137 older and Deetail (from 1970) frolicking calves. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Britains Ltd. old Walking Bull 2151 (two plastics from the old lead mold, and an amusing China copy as a bonus). [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Britains Saddleback pigs, old and Deetail 2171 from 1971. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]And here the perhaps unfairest comparison: On the right the 1:32 Britains Ltd. Young Crocodile from 1961-1971 (or presumably a China copy of it, actually, but the mold's much the same) and on the left the later, larger 1972 Nile Crocodile 1325. |

| Another old & new pairing, although this time I don't know for certain which is which - the Schleich 1988 black-and-white lying cow 13211 or the AAA/E.L.C. lying Holstein cow 2459. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The same mold was obviously used, which is no wonder given the two companies' relationship with each other. Only, for the AAA version the tucked-under right foreleg has been (crudely) sculpted into a stretched-out position and the exposed hoof on the hind leg resculpted to match the style of the new foreleg. The gracelessness in the execution of all this leads me to presume the Schleich is the older of these molds. |
