I think the wolf looks rather fairytale-ish

Not really. He just has bad paintwork and not natural teeth, rather his lips should biasing.
Like that:

too catoonish in my eyes

the lion

It is very ugly, the giraffe-neck-syndrom and too fat tail

the tiger

Even i think we also have here the giraffe-neck-syndrom I love this one I will buy it, if I had the time to resculpt the neck

the pig

It's areally good one, nice walking pose (not a boring standing one), just the fur is a bit overacted.

and an overview to the horses

sorry for the bad quality: even it is taken with one the newest smartphonse it is just a smartphone

I can't wait till Januari.

Great photos, Bonobo!
I can't wait to see the new releases in russian shops :)

Yeah, the teeth on that wolf are awful. For me it's such a lost opportunity. There aren't many (or any, really) truly superb wolves on the market. My personal favorites are the howling wolf by Safari, one of the old wolves by Schleich (14223), and the Mojos (the walking wolf in particular). The rest aren't bad, they just aren't impressive, and none of these are spectacular. Such a shame. There should be at least one great wolf sculpt out there. (Is there?)

Missed chance.

Yeah, I'm agree with you. The brands have so different wolves, but there is no this «golden mean», which can give us ideal wolf. I like Safari Wild Life Wonder wolf very much, but he is so big (I like standard scale like Schleich), I like most of Safari wolves and I think that Safari is leader among other brands in canines. Safari make the best canines. I like AAA wolves, some Schleich's ones, one of my most favorited wolves is wolf by Marvel company from «X-men» movie, he is amazing (he is big grey snarling wolf, you can see him on my photos [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] But no one wolf is ideal. If we could to unite some wolves to one, we could get an ideal. But it is impossible: each sculptor has his own style.

I really like the husky mold, but I don't like his eyes ... Probably going to get him and paint the eyes

I agree entirely about the Safari Wild Life Wonder Wolf. It is really nice, but too big.

I really like your collection. But my favorite is the snarling black wolf. Where is that from?

Wow, thank you for sharing those photos!  They look better here.
By the way, about the wolf, I've got new photo of him from eBay today:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

This wolf looks as though he were made of styrofoam and then finished with a brulee torch...

I checked a small toy shop and they got some of the new ones too. Didn't like many of them. The donkey has a very nice face and forehand and from a certain angle I like him a lot. Just not his left hind leg and tail.. So just the miniature stallion jumped into my shopping bag although I don't like his eyes (a usual complain from my side about Schleich.. )
At home the new mini was looking for food!

My older brother like him the most too
This is wolf from «Metal Gear», now this one is retired (was made in 1999), I found him on eBay. But I think he isn't really beatiful or something, when I just got him, I was need to be accustomed to this wolf. He is... strange. But maybe it is just my first feelings, I like him now.

Nope, it is just very, very bad paintwork I like the proportions meanwhile.

He looks very good!
Haha, they're always hungry XD
I think legs of donkey looks awful, terrible... How can such brand like Schleich do this? But her face looks very well.
I want new figurines in russian shops

Cute photo! This is probably one of the better ones released, I also don't like the alien eyes or the paintwork.

Lovely photo, Shanti! At least this pony has quite nice color

I would buy the red macaw probably, i thought it was the same mould as the Hyacinth macaw or blue macaw....
But you said it was smaller, which would be correct in compare to the hyacinth, but not to the blue and yellow macaw...

The werewolf is one the best 2015 models of Schleich-it looks the same what it is-horrible. I wonder people give money for such a piece of expensive trash.

The tiger looks ok-it is indeed the best tiger Schleich made-but the rhino-it is so funny with the white horns and toes....

I think, I will buy a few of them-today I've bought the doneky, the black sheep and the hyena-nice looking models, no more, no less.

Schleich is dead for all the serious collecctors of my generation, but it seems to be ok for the younger people, because the demands for quality decreasing more and more in our todays world.Thats the reason why,also Animal Lovers, eat meat from animals from the animal factories-no quality indeed,horrible life for the meat donors, but it is CHEAP !
