Where to buy Safari?

I hope you find one. It is the cutest little rascal

As Roger says, it may be hard to find him, but perhaps easier in USA than in Europe ?   

I'm always scanning eBay for the Prehistoric mammal line, and I don't think I've seen the smilodon cub since its retirement. I wish you best of luck in your hunting, however.

I have one for you  , however, to send from Germany. If you are interested, send me a PM

I forgot to add that with people like Ralf on STS, there isn't anything impossible in this forum!

That's right, Roger! On STS, a community has formed, spread over many countries in the world. Everywhere there are collectors who help each other.
By the way, I would be interested to know how many nations there are on STS?
Do you have a kind of "automatic STATISTICS" on the server/PC, that show how many Nations are on STS ?

No, I tried it before, searched on forumotion but it looks there isn't a way to know that. Also, there are many members to count. We have a good representation from all continents except Africa. :)

I also look on eBay frequently and I haven't come across it either. I just checked TGF Toys' website, usually they do have some retired figures, but no such luck.

I discovered by coincidence, that MPV got most of the retired Blue Ribbon Horses back in stock   
Even the lovely Gypsy Vanner.

I just wanted to say if any one of you are looking for them   

I ordered two myself. I fear it wont be long before they are gone again   

They are beautiful! Thanks for the link, I can't wait to see some photographs from you when they have arrived!

Do they ship abroad? 10 EUR is much nicer price than 18 EUR but I don't know Finnish, so I can't find this information :/
Or maybe someone here from Finland could help me buy the Gypsy Vanner? :>

Ow   Yes indeed, and that is quite a nice prize! (I like also very much the photos they've made to promote their accessories  ) I thought they would never go lower than 15 €. And I thought they were very hard to get too

I think there are many good things in Finland

I remember how I struggeled to find one, - I wonder if it is a re-launch ?

It will be exiting to see pictures - and of the package too - when somebody gets them

Yeah  A little time ago they was only 4 euro! What a pity that I forgot to tell for you! If anyone wants them, I can order for you    

4 Euro for such beauties   What a bargain!

Relaunch, I don't know. They don't have the beautiful Palomino mare though. It seems she is the only one missing.

Yes, I do wonder the packaging differences too   Will have to see when I get the two I ordered  

Oh, I got them today   

I ordered the ones where they were not noted with '(box open)'. which may mean they are in a closed box - which ment in a Safari Ltd cardboard box. I suppose that is how stores receive them from factory   

I think not they are relaunches. The two I got were marked at produced in 2009.

(Sorry for the weird angle in the photo, Photobucket is messing with me. I will try and fix it).

Awesome that you got him! Thanks for pic with the box, it's so interesting to see where the models have been  

The most unbelievable thing is that I do not have any of them yet even though they were so cheap and are in very good prices right now...   

Hey all again!
If you're interested to get retired Safari Blue ribbon horses, take a look here;
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] All the 11 horses are available in that online shop again. The price is only 10 euro, but they don't deliever their products abroad. There's another way to get them, I can purchase horses what you want and send them for You.
Carola, the Palomino mare is also in stock   

I like Safari ltd Gypsy Vanner, there are 2 versions that I would like to get :   
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Those are wondeful   MPV has both.

I have the first one you show. Lovely model with unusual coat for a model Gypsy Vanner.

I've got the second one, she's gorgeous, though the paintjob could be better.
