Tiptoi Models in a store...I bought the Impala

I know there was some old thread about these models which I only discovered today but I wanted to post photos of the Tiptoi models I came across in a shop in Berlin recently.  They caught me  by surprise and looked great until, upon closer inspection I saw the yellow tiptoi flat surface on each model which hides an electronic tag.  It does take away from the model somewhat but I still had to buy the impala model.

They have a rhino which was not on display but I think that looks the best in the range and I attach some images for reference.  I wonder if Tiptoi will expand their range?  and of all the species to make a black-faced impala is impressive! I had hoped CollectA would make one someday!

Thanks for the photos and congrats on the Impala! Do you have closer photos of the trotting zebra by any chance?

Tiptoi has so much nice models... those Zebra's..  It's a shame they put the orange dot on the animals, That's the only reason for me to not buy some

Congrats on your Impala!!

These are a lot more animals then Ravenburger had before.
I dont like the orange dots either.
Maybe maybe if the make an awesome bear :)

Here are more about them:

I'm not a big fan of them, but I'm pretty sure that they will expand their range, since this month they have a new hippo and a gorilla.

Yes I forgot to include the link to the zebra pic. I have added it now in the original list, take a look. These pictures are all I have. The Zebra was cute and tempting. The Impala and Zebra are slightly smaller in scale to Schleich but will work nonetheless......

They are beautiful!!! That lion reminds me of Aslan sooooo much... I wish I could have it

Thank you!! I really like this one, too bad this brand isn't sold in the US.

What a shame that it isnt sold in the Netherlands too
Some really nice models, I don't mind the orange dot.

I have just send a email to Ravensburger.nl with the question if they can sell the animals in the Netherlands to, or else make it possible that we can order from Germany..... waiting for there answer

Congratulation Numaan I discovered yesterday that TipToy models were sold in France. Some are very nice, but those orange dots

Thankyou for the great photos, Numaan

I like many of them, - and about the orange dot, - yopu can just turn the other side out on the shelf

Really nice! Even better than some Major brand models I'd love to get the horses too

Thanks!

Those crocodiles are grand, and the golden retrievers are looking very nice too. Thanks for the pictures - I'd never known of this brand before. How I wish I could come by that croc locally.

Ravensburg is great model. I have some of them. The defect is the flat area on each model. But I still love them.

they look great! too bad about the yellow button thingy tho (and for that reason, i wont buy them)

Hi guys

I know the flat yellow section is a pain for on a display shelf we simply display them another way. I for sure really want to get that impressive looking Rhino but I have not seen any actual photos of the model yet - does anyone some photos to share?

Hi, I will show you some pictures.

Though I can't find shop of Ravensburgers in China, Ravensburgers animal models could be found in TAOBAO sometimes. As you all know, they are from China factory directly...so the quality is not good.. But Chinese people are still lucky because we could buy it in China.
