I always thought those one were MAROLIN but not VEB PLAHO

By the way, do you have some to trade ?

Please read my "New members introduce themselves", there standing some about the history...Marolin became to Plaho, Plaho became to Marolin, exist since 1900...
Plaho and Marolin is the same...
...but right, these are from Marolin...were not produced in the GDR...because...I don´t know...

What an enormous collection

...some color variations...

I see only one Plaho tiger, buta nice Fischer grizzly and a nice Fischer Buffalo. The lions are from Plaho too.
Very old collection, I mean, nice. But many from China, Britains and so on...[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

...I,ve meaned Thomas show please to us colours variations of lions and tigres!

One can hardly believe it. China robbed the GDR. Here a few pirated copies with typically Chinese manuscript. Bad processing, bad colours. The pirated copies are a little smaller, however, the structure of the figure is identical. The plastic is harder or much softer.

...in scale 1:32...

There are 2 forms of the Plaho reindeers. The eyes became painted "always", how those of the dinos and elks. Except... Photo... white eyes. I own only such a copy.
The 1st reindeer form has the same problem, how those of the elks. Legs too unstable. Moreover, right forefoot instabilst in the right forefoot, tipped outwardly away... Photo.
2. Form. Legs were completely reworked. Now fur hangings in the hoofs, before rather horse hoofs. Legs thicker. In this reworking step the cervical hangings were also increased.
