| Great to see your close ups of these birdies. I like when toob figures represent small animals. These birds are a good example. I like them, maybe they can join my collection! Congratulations! |

| Congratulation Robert, you have a very good set The painting is not as good as a KAIYODO or a AoA but they are still very fine and the size is also perfect for me... More money to find I guess |

| I agreed that the paint job is not as good as kaiyodo. So I skip this?
Or maybe buy.... |

| My sister ordered these for me online. They should be arriving any day now, and when they do, I'll photograph them outdoors and put the photos on my photobucket for all to see. I like them. If they seem too dull or unfinished as far as paint goes, I can always "touch them up" with my paintbrush! Looking forward to getting these birdies! |

Sorry, batteries are on the charger, but they are roughly the same size as Schleich Budgies _________________ Robert

| Hello, everyone! Robert has already [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] of Safari Backyard Birds toob - to my mind, the best Safari Ltd. product of 2013. Now I'd like to share some comparison pics of these birds for you to see their scale. At first, here are they against Safari fir trees: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]"Wings of the World" composition (or group portrait?) featuring my Safari aviary: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]And here are my Safari birds set according to their height ("By twos, count off!"): [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I don't compare these birds with mammal figurines as they're are in another scale - a yellow warbler is as large as a wolf pup or deer fawn. So they fit well on their own, or next to some other bird figurines like Bullyland eagles or Schleich storks. _________________ Owners of miniature zoos on shelves, unite! My collector's blog
