I have a pretty little zebra

Congrats, a Kaiyodo Yotsuba Knockoff? Sure?

Knockoff or not, the little girl offering the zebra a piece of grass is so sweet and tender!
Gentle zebra just standing there while the adventurous child is trying to befriend it makes this piece absolutely adoring <3

No, not sure.

I can only say that it came in one piece for the zebra and was a bit more bendy then the others I've encountered. But perhaps there was a change in composition due to not wanting legs to be too brittle? I suppose I may have just assumed it would be in multiple pieces.

If someone else has a genuine straight-from-established-source one, I'd love to compare.

My daughter kept trying to steal the little girl. "No, dear, I did not say you could keep the little girl. Give her back. thank you." So she agrees. :)

It might very well be genuine and I just expected something different.

According to the way they are packed, the zebra does indeed come in one piece.
What a funny series of figures. Never seen them before.

It exists 2 series of Yotsuba monochrome animals :)

You really have a pretty little zebra!

Ah, thanks Andreas. She'll probably end up with the girl anyhow.
Thanks, Simone. For some reason I was thinking it was a multiple piece figure.
Obrigada, Roger.

Sorry, I forgot to respond and then it cleared out of my "not read yet" list.

I managed to get a really good deal on this little kitty.  "I'll never win this one, someone will bid higher than $2.00." So, it was much to my surprise when I received an email saying "you won!  Now pay for it to make it yours!" (I do feel a little bad, because shipping had to have cost at least twice the amount I paid if not a little more.)

The packaging deserves a note I think, because it made me smile more than the actual figure. The outside was this boring brown paper, and inside, well... they know the art of presentation:

Beautieful iriomote cat :)

That is indeed one great way to pack such a great kitty :3 <3

Thanks Andreas, Karin. :)

Excellent acquisition, that's a species not yet represented in my collection, congratulations!

Great collection so far! I love the little cat you recently acquired. The painting on it is excellently done. I also saw that you also have an excellent collection of sealife. Keep up the amazing collection!

What a beauty!

Thank you Anne. takk

So. I finally found a North American yowie. The California Condor. On phone so pics are being funky. Susanne wonderfully added it to the wiki. Thanks.

I've been busy working on a project for most of this year and it has finally entered the next phase. So I will probably not be very active but will be stopping by. Excuse me, I need to go attend to my real life "replica". :) She's doing well, thanks.


Yes, I still have plans to get your package mailed out this year, Noemi. Hopefully in this next month or so. Thanks for your patience.

Congrats Laura :)

Wonderful Laura! There aren't better reasons to be less active. Your STS family will be here waiting for you!

The best "package" ever CONGRATULATIONS

And a very time consuming one
I hope you will eventually find time to show The Forum a picture of her in between changing nappies  etc  

Since you asked, Susanne, and i apparently can't quite resist the month entirely...

On the first day of DINOvember, the most adventuresome of the dinos climbed the new piece of furniture to see what the human's fuss was all about.  They were met with a curious sight.

And what a wellcome from the dinos

This little girl will grow so with creativity, imagination and lots of fun! <3

Welcome little one to STS <3 <3
