04-12-2015 ~Karin's Newest Additions!~ [Trade with Tove and Abu drawing!]

...

Thank you all for your comments ^^
Finally! I found some time to photograph my newest animals, including the horses from Jonas.
I ordered a big bunch from MPV, my whole wish list from 2013 in one order. So be prepared to be amazed lol.

Here they are! :DAren’t they beautiful?! I’m really, really happy that Jonas was so generous <3
Their colors, shades, character, I love it!

Sucat wanted to show his best friend in the herd. Almost a conga line? XD

After thinking about these for a long time, I decided to order them :DThese are my first Mojo and CollectA horses in my herd. The Fjord is just stunning, a real stud. But I need to get used to the slender and small head and legs of the Dartmoor pony. I’m used to the bulky Schleich horses, so the Dartmoor is complete different! But he is a beauty also, and I’m happy that I have him.

I LOVE the falcon, I recommend this beauty to everyone who collect birds or are interested in buying him. The stoat and coyotes are beautiful too. As you all can see, my Papo fox is tilting but he can stand on his own. I don’t know what to think about the puma. His colors and pose is very nice, but his head…

Predators, and I love them all. The difference between the two wild dogs is big, but I don’t mind. My favorite is the king cheetah. His pose, head, markings, such a natural made  animal. And the fennec fox is way better than the Safari one IMO.

I wanted some variation in my collection. And I ordered some horned beauties. I’m very happy that I did, because all are beauties. The Papo Oryx is huge! But luckily I have room for him. Oh, and I think that my new Papo young lion, has too much horn on his mind for his own good.

I’m so happy that I finally got the Mojo clouded leopard and the Papo tigress with cub. Both look great and as a wild cat lover, they are a must have for my collection. The saola, oh wow what a stunning animal. It is such a shame that this animal is so close to extinction. The tapir and HIS young are beautiful too. Although I though the male was a female… XD

The fox is big! Didn’t expect that when I saw him on MPV. He is a cutie for sure. The dolphin is a real treat. I have her baby and they look so lovely together! But the orca calf, hmm. His head looks so big. Maybe it is because the bends like in a jump. But when he would be straight, I think his head will be too big. The snow leopards are, just like the fennec fox, much better that the Safari ones.

Normally I don’t collect dinos. But for Triceratopses I make a exception. I already have two from Schleich, and this is the Papo one. The baby from Papo is on my 2014 wish list. Hope to reunite those two at the end of this year.

Soo, that was it! Big bunsh of animals at one and Jonas customs :3

Wow! that's a big order you did, Night!   
I LOVE the horses Jonas made for you! ^.^ and you did an perfect job on choosing the figures from mpv, choices I would make, too! you made me think on getting those colletA tapirs...   xD

Ow ow what a fantastic lot    

You got some golden legends and as well newer nicities   

Indeed CollectA horses need a little getting used to, but when that moment is over, they are a joy   
The Fjord Stallion is surely handsome, very good first one along with the Dartmoor.

The King Cheetah looks very good too   Maybe the later batches got better paintwork? It looks like it to me!  

Many nice newcomers!! Big congratulations     

Congrats!  I agree, the orca calf's head does look too big and his blowhole is too far back. I think it's from him (or her) being in a strange pose. I wasn't sure about buying it or not because no one had it and had actual pictures of it; we all know about the stock pictures versus actual pictures, they always look different   

What a beautiful lot of newcomers! Very impressive group indeed. Congratulations Karin, that's fantastic!

What an AWESOME lot   

So many beautyful models, it is impossible to pick the best ones, - they are all fantastic    

So many!
Those are the best packages I think.
I always try to order a lot of figures in one go, so I can save on shipping costs.
But that means you sometimes have to wait and wait and wait    before you can order them.
But when that box finaly arrives, it's a fantastic feeling!
I'm sure you can fix the Papo fox. Just hold his four legs in bowl of very hot water for a while and bend them back.
Then rinse them off quickly under the coldwater tap.

Big congratulations! Especially for the Jonas-horses, they are fantastic as always! I can't wait to get mine

Although Jonas customs are the brightest stars im the sky of that night, other shining stars can be seen. almost an universe of emblematic figures. I think we loose too much when we restrict our collection to the most powerful star, often known as black hole amd that usually collapses under its own gravity.. Congratulations for your adventures im other galaxies.

Wow! That's such a perfect lot of newbies, Karin!
I judt like 'em all so much, cant choose a favorite :3 Those horned guys are so beautiful everyone! Love 'em
Big gongratulstions and so glad you still like my gifts for u

Thank you, Dust     I was doubting some animals first, but all are great new additions. About the Tapirs, they are something for you too The baby is really cute, somewhat big ears IMO, but still a good model. The adult is a male and a real wild animal. Love the pose.

Thank you Carola The Fjord and Dartmoor are now full members of my herd ^^ And they are indeed a joy to look at Oh? I don't know how the first batch looked like, but mine surely has an awesome paintwork

Thanks Orcagirl Oh, his blow hole is too far back indeed! If you want extra photo's, I can make a small walk-around of him/her? :3 It is not the worst orca (calf) I have ever seen, but not the nicest either

Thank you Ana. Can't wait for the 2014 new animals, who I'm gonna order in December.

Thank you, Bloodrayne It was a big, heavy box. And it was indeed a fantastic feeling   Thank you for the tip! I never tried that... I will try it with the Papo fox. now he looks silly, tilting and not falling XD

    I can imagine that feeling. But I'm sure that when they arrive, you will be so happy

You always amaze me, wise crocodile. Yes, I have discovered other galaxies, found amazing new stars and I hope new ones will be discovered this year. I try to expand my reach every time, and I hope the universe will never stop.

You're welcome!   If you don't mind, I'd like to see his/her other side or if you want to you can just do a small walk-around. It's up to you and I'm not sure if you have the time at the moment to do a walk-around. I agree, he/she isn't the worst but not the best. Hopefully in the next few years CollectA will release an updated version like they did with the adult.

very cool newcomers Karin!

Fantastic newbies, congrats!

Thank you Sauroid and Saarlooswolfhound

A few days a go, an other small horse arrived. This time it is a Peter Stone.
I need some help identifying the breed/name/color. I know it is made in 2006 and that it is a stallion. And he is a Stablemate scale. (Thanks for the question Ana )
And what for stallion, he is gorgeous!

And I found some small birds, they are made from stone or resign stuff, sorta XD
They are detailed for such small birds. I don't know if they resemble a specie of birds?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I also found this little female goose, she is a very lovely model. Same material as the little birds.
Love her pose, tucking away for a short sleep ^.^

Wow, beautiful horse, amazing! I don't know much about Peter Stone, maybe others can help you with identifying. What scale he is? About the breed, he looks like warmblood, maybe it's KWPN

Also birds are wonderful. I can see some specie of american oriole among them (the yellow one with black wings)

Congratulations!!!

Beautyful horse and adorable little birds   

Tze birds and the horse are wonderful!!

Wow! Beautiful Stone model, and a quite rare find as well! This is the Warmblood mold, actually called a Chip by Stone, but is the same scale as the Breyer Stablemates. The Warmblood is rarely used anymore, and is quite coveted by Stone collectors.

He was released in March of 2007.


Congratulations!

Really beautiful little Peter Stone Chip   So delicate and with little dapples ! Great catch!

Also the birds a very neat   

The birds are so small    Could the second one from the left be a cardinal?

I don't think it's a cardinal, it doesn't have the characteristic crest on the head. However, that was probably the intent of the company that produced them.

From left to right they appear to be:
Indigo Bunting, Northern Cardinal, no idea , American Goldfinch, Purple Finch.

Congratulations Night!    That Peter stone is wonderful, so small.. so detailed!
