| Oh, no !!!!! What did they do to those fell ponies ??? The Fell pony is a powerful, proud, small horse with almost no pony-character and they made a family of cute, little ponies with large heads This ancient breed with clear links to the mounts of the knights, - it should look more like a small Friesian. Se pictures of the real ones [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]Schleich makes cute models, but this time they really, really, really over-did it. I am horrified ! I LOVE Fell ponies, and then look at this , - they might as well have made them pink, now they were at it Now my hope for horse-models is Papo, if only they don`t have too much success with this year`s "barbie"-horses |

You're very wrong, schleich is a brand from all the persons. I have a friend I like schleich gothic dark elves. :) :) All the boys like the brand schleich, not, little girls. Schleich make great models. I collect Bayala and I'm a boy. I'm a normal guy I have girlfriend and friends. |

He's only saying that the brand is exagerating in cuteness, only because they found it has a lot of success with young girls but not only, of course. The excessive cuteness is very atractive, I find myself the ponies prety, but they doesn't look like the real ponies. Realism is not only when eyes look real, it is when we can find the characteristics of an animal in a figure. These ponies are ponies and they would be called with the name of another breed that it wouldn't make any difference for a general customer, but for someone that knows how a horse should look like it is not interesting, I guess. I am not a little girl and I collect Schleich, I don't hate the brand too, I understand why they make the figures with such a toyish looking, the explanation is on front page of the catalogue, but of course toys are made for children. Anyway, as I work in educational projects, I also agree that it is more educative for children to learn playing with animals that look like the real ones and not with animals that looks from a world of fantasy. :) There are some fantasy lines that you love and collect, there is nothing wrong in it, but it would be nice to see the animal series free from it. |

The Fell pony is a powerful, proud, small horse with almost no pony-character and they made a family of cute, little ponies with large heads This ancient breed with clear links to the mounts of the knights, - it should look more like a small Friesian. I'm very disappointed too More than a year ago, when we discussed probable horse breeds for (probably) 2012, I mentioned that I don't collect horses but I would love if some of big brands would make a good replica of Fell Pony... Well, I would STILL love to see a GOOD replica of Fell Pony Me too, - this is a disaster And me too. They are just ugly :/ And the foal and mare of Hannoverian horses have the same posture... I think that they no longer put any effort in figures. Oh, oh, indeed these figures don't resemble real Fell ponies But they could be other breed, they just need to update the name. Maybe there is still time to write to Schleich and inform them about the mistake I don't think little girls don't care, most of the horse loving girls have at least several books about horses and horses' breeds. It's very easy to find Fell ponies there and it's easy to compare and see the difference In my opinion if brand produce figure with not accurate name that shall be changed. Otherwise customers (young girls and not only ) will complain when they discover mistake. If it's called just "riding pony" then no one will think there is anything wrong probably. Although head of the grey one doesn't look too pretty to me, I quite like brown one, looks like Exmoor ( ) a little bit, if not the feathers on legs :) I personally like the new Hannoverian mare And I think there shall be more horses, in previous years there were more _________________ Anna Horse and Bird studio - Horse sculptures My model horse collection

| Maybe we just have to be patient... trends sometimes need some time until they achieve stuff like toys. But for some years its "in" to be natural, ecologic and so on. so maybe (and hopefully) schleich will see this trend and will go for more natural figurines. This overcute look is maybe in one or two years outdated. And I dont think that children always prefer this toyish look. They just prefer what they know. And unfortunately, many children never saw real cows, foxes, and so on. they just see animated animals with faces with a human expression on it... and so we got... a strangely smiling polar-bear I really hope that Schleich will make some collectors-stuff (not only those repaints). I would love to see an albino-collection. From time to time there are news about albino animals that are born in zoos, why not make replicas of these? I just got a faible for white animals |

Can't wait to see more. Dear Paka, I read your nice comment and I need to tell you : You can love or dislike every models of every brands, you can love or dislike every brands, you can comment the models, you can say you don't agree or don't agree with someone But nobody here is authorized to make comments or insults about other members who doesn't share your opinions. You have a very bad habit ! It's the last time we let you do this. If we read things like cry babies and full diapers again we will ban you. We are fed up ! It is your last chance.

I can't understand why soo much people don't like them. Indeed some collectors here don't like the pics and discussed their point. Some collectors also posted they love the new horses. A "Everything is bad" topic would be very boring indeed, just as boring as "everything is so good" one Collectors need to discuss these things and it doesn't matter to be on the "Lovers team" or on the "Disappointed lovers" team |

| We just say what we like and what we don't like, that's all :) This is obvious that some people will love new ponies. But some of us demand from Schleich to make a good replica of an animal, because they've already shown that they can do that. They failed us in this case, because these Fell ponies don't look like real Fell ponies: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Just make a comparison. |
