Hi Susanne

Britains made these for just a few years. My guess they made them to compete with Playmobile and Lego Duplo animal figures. These German/Danish figures must have made an impact on Britains "real life" and effected their sales. So Britains responded with these comic looking animal figures.

I will take a scan of the catalogues these were issued in so that readers can see the full range offered.

BTW great finds. Very Happy

I have a few of these models and they also made a farm set and they were called Young Britains and as said before they were only issued for a short time.

The series were called "smalle series", and were mostly in the back of the Britains catalogues, starting in 1990.
I had so much catalogues scanned and put here, but all of the pics seems to be vanished, aaarrggggghhh!
