| I was at the 2013 London Toy Fair last week and whilst quickly walking around to look for Schleich, Papo and Bullyland a small stand caught my eye. It was a UK distributor of toys call Armadillo toys and they had a shelf with small plastic animals and lizards on display. These were the cheap looking chinese made pocket money type models sold in large counter style boxes to toy shops. Anyway, what caught my eye were a display of little monkeys which I thought looked pretty cool. They were nice and similar in scale to Schleich. I attach some photos below in case anyone is interested. I do not know who the manufacturer is. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I then saw Revell's stand and they have a new line of anatomical wildlife models. You get a large scale plastic model which on one side consists of a clear case in which you can see the internal anatomy of the animal. Pretty cool too.

| Those are pretty cool! I think the monkeys are copies or at least inspired by other models though, however I can't tell you exactly what, just something I've seen on the forum before. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| What funny monkeys! Here you can buy some of these anatomical sets, but I don't know if they are from Revell? |
