Let's Gather Photos of "Reused/Reconfigured Mold" Schleich!

I have another one: look at the two ladies (middle and right):

The left one is the stallion. There are a few similarities to his mare.

My goodness you are right! Prz horse has been recycled to make the female Zebra. Of course it makes sense as both are so closely related and similar in size and shape etc. Great image. Cannot believe I missed that.

Oh wow, you're very observant! I didn't notice that either.

I just noticed this:

And this is a little suspicious:

More likely though they just happen to be very similar.

  

Very good observations  The Zebra and Przewalski is all new to me, very interesting they are in fact in family

And I really like the Zahor horse(and knight), one of the few quite sinister figures made by Schleich.

I'm going to copy my post from [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], this time with pics :)

Whoah!!! That was a long post

Great post AlienMantis There are so many I've never thought of.

And that Mojo foal... That's highly suspicious  What kind of copycatting is that? Even among bigger brands?  
Now I just wonder who was first?

This is everything very interesting. I remember that I've found the Przerwalski boring similar to zebra sometime ago, also some people commenting their similarities but never figured they are a reworked mould.
It means that the horse was produced during a single year but was able of keeping 4 years in catalogue, it is not impossible considering it is a not very good selling figure.
About Mojo arabian foal, it is not surely the same mould as Schleich although they look very similar. They even have a different body conformation. As it surely happens with all brands, market was studied and there was some inspiration. the 1st Mojo and Schleich ARabian horse are also somewhat similar, I guess, as well as we can find among all brands with many other figures.
Though, there are many examples of brands that used moulds from other brands, the Safari and Schleich mountain goats, is a known example as well as surely Safari used the Colorata mould to the chinstrap penguin.
It is great that you're sharing all of this interesting connections with us and supporting it with fantastic pictures.

THIS IS FANTASTIC    

The prezelwalski mare and dartmoor mare

What an interesting topic! Thanks for posting!

Quarter horse stallion and Andalusian stallion

nice photos! 

Another re-use - they just stuck a too long neck and a nondescript head on the Knabstrupper mare's Body

Very cool! Thanks for sharing! And congrats for having the 2014 models already too!

Thank you for sharing new photos of 2014 models   

The poor Trakehner mare looks so sad, i mean literally. In the first photo it looks like she is ready to burst into tears, aw  
I want to hug her !

Her husband looks a bit more optimistic.

Carola, you are so right - perhaps the poor mare has a Christmas depression  
While checking out the whole lot of 2014 horses still sitting on my desk, I found another possible relation - the old Trakehner mare and the new Fjord. The share not only the legs but there are also some similarities in their body.

And i thought, that 2014 was compelty fresh   Shame on me   

Oh, another set of very good and informative photos with a very old and very new Schleich   

Actually it looks like, in your photos, that the Fjord is not that different from old Schleich horse anatomy.. He just has a VERY muscular neck and bulky face, which I suspect is just the sculptor based him, of course, on some characteristics for the breed...

The Fjord sure looks very sweet, I can't wait to get mine ! And the old Trakehner - what a beauty. Clear that Schleich have improved a lot in texturing and paintwork, naturally

That's surprising! Schleich = too much consistency.

 I would have never noticed that Alvaro!
