Schleich 2016 Speculations/Wishlist

Yes it indeed would be very nice to have a mule in their collection. Safari mule looks quite nice but we need something new right = ) We can just wait and hope to get one = D

I wish that, whatever new animals there are for 2015, they would bring out more family groups.  Every Christmas, we get loads of people who are making Arks and need two of everything.  I get that Schleich may not want to produce pairs if they are new items and they are trying them out but I think pairs would ultimately sell better than singles.

My List for 2016:

Prehistoric Animals:

Iguanodon
Pteranodon
Ankylosaurus
Baryonyx

I'd like to see more dog accessories, especially since we got a henhouse for 2015 - surely a kennel wouldn't be too much trouble? :)

Why so early???

Because they haven't put out anything beside the Artic Wolf for 2015. Still the same old White Tigers, Crocodiles, Dinosaurs, and more pigs that we seen the last several years.
What I'm looking for looks like I'm hoping for in 2016.

Welcome here

I think Schleich work already on its projects in 2016 ....          
I hope they do not forget the South American fauna,        
He clenched reasonable to plan a condor.  
I have the old it is wonderful but now it would take a new, more air, I mean with open wings, more then any major brand tempted.
a new family as puma clenched be welcome!  
Alpacas will be in retirement, fortunately they are on my shelves ...!  
No doubt the new lamas are now planning to replace them ???  
Why not change the game and make vicuna!  
My wishes clutched a Maned wolf, a Spectacled bear family very cute for children too,  
The Maras    
Pink flaments with young people on their nest that, he already seems to have proposed ...;  
Guinea pigs,  
and an animal that I find very attractive and cute: coati      
Rheas and their offspring would bring more in this set  

I love your point and water your new plants.
Also small batches with small animals are fine, I find a shame that the shells (eggs) are not painted ????

Dogs:

- Rottweiler
- Great Pyrenees
- Akbash dog

I have nothing to really base any speculations on so I am just listing my special wishes.

My personal views on what schleich will make are just wow and anyway here it is my predictions not my wish list.

PREDICTIONS FOR 2016

PAST AND PRESENT

FARMLIFE

Black ram
Black lamb standing
Black lamb lying
(In 2015 we have a black sheep so why don't they continue the family in in 2016 (so we have even more evil black sheep   ).)

Simmental bull
Simmental cow
Simmental calf
(they need to retire the Simmental and calf for newer ones because the Hereford cattle have their positions now so the new 2016 Simmentals in my opinion need newer positions.)

Hereford cow
Hereford calf
(Yep I'm talking about these models [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] I think that they should release them over here in England because they released the Hereford bull in England and the full angus cattle family but no the Hereford cow and calf I know that they are still producing the Simmental cow and calf that are in the same position as the Hereford cow and calf but maybe they will retire the Simmental cow and calf in 2016 and give the Simmentals new positions and have the Herefords in the old Simmental cattle positions.)

Alpaca
Alpaca foal
(I have no idea if schleich make these I just thought it would expand abit on their farm .)

White rooster
White hen
Hen pecking
(New chickens to expand their farm life.)

HORSES

Icelandic stallion
Icelandic foal
Pinto foal
(These are horses I believe that could have the current models retired and have newer models as these for replacements to match schleich newer style.)

Camargue stallion
Camargue mare
Camargue foal
(A new family made for 2012 retired figures.)

Clydesdale stallion
Clydesdale mare
Clydesdale foal
(Why not retire the present Clyde's and make a newer family.)

Haflinger mare
Haflinger foal
(Same reason to make new Clydesdales.)

Frisian stallion
Frisian foal
( Yep for the 2016 Frisian stallion I believe that they could make the 13792 from [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] Frisian stallion and also a foal aswell.)

Andalusian mare
(13793 from [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Percheron stallion
Percheron foal
(It would be great to have the Percherons back though wouldn't it.)

Dalmatian puppy
(We need new Dalmatians in schleich newer dog scale.)

Giraffe female
Giraffe calf

Baboon male
Baboon female and baby
Baboon baby
(Could 2016 be return of the baboons since we had new primates in 2012 2013 and 2014 but not in 2015 but maybe in 2016 we could have return of some old primates.)

(New model needs to be made.)

(Time for new cheetahs.)

Indian rhino
(Return of the old models.)

Kangaroo
(Same reason as to making a new leopard.)

Camel
(Schleich have no camel now wow.)

ARCTIC AND ANTARCTIC

Sea lion
(Similar to why they made the new crocodile in 2015.)

AMERICA

Ok so that is my longest I have ever made phew I am going to rest now my predictions for 2016 is over now.

Love to read what you are all expenting!
I think your list trevok4 could be very eccurate!
..Also i hope for the new breeds you are also maybe expecting!
Maybe i can speak my little wish of a hackey and a marwari i little louder again
But i will be pleased IF there will be new frisians, haflingers, welsh ponys and maybe even brumby's!

As a south-american, I trully welcome your post! I'd love to see some rheas, coatis and maras! A vicuna would be wonderful as well!

Since i waited long enough before i could post in this thread, i guess i shall revil my wishes

I wish Schlich would remake some of there Old Replicasaurus models and quit makeing new sculpts of dinosaurs they alredy have in there line.

I suggested to them on Facebook the folowing

Baryonx with articulated Jaw and Arms

Dilophosaurus With Articulated Jaw

Dimorphodon with Articulated Jaw

Edmontinia

Pachyrhinosaurus

I feel that Schleich has been pretty dang unpredictable lately, I felt that this was a (pretty good) surprise. But since I can't feel like I an predict new species etc. here are my guesses based on their releases from this year.

There will probably be new lion cubs and maybe one more lioness since it appears they are replacing the royal family. I can only hope for more species of reptiles, maybe a new snake or two, but personally I hope for some lizards like a komodo, iguana, chameleon etc. as possible high choices (though they have a chameleon in their plant sets). There may be another bird or two as well, since there were three from this last year, my guess would be something like a new eagle or toucan since those are easily recognizable and would probably sell well. I think the parrot thing has been a little overdone lately. There may be some other tigers to "finish" the families they reintro'd. In the past Schleich has done a family of four, with two adults and two cubs, sometimes even of both orange and white. They may add a rhino, likely a calf (though I shudder to think if its just a repaint of the old calf). And of course, my selfish side wants another wolf, hopefully a pup or two, though I really really hope they do a better job than the snarling one. Maybe an arctic wolf pup and a timber/gray one, or maybe even another adult.

*also, I kind of hope for some more sets of plants with small animals. I don't have any of those yet, but I like the idea of getting smaller figures with a scenery piece, since that is an opportunity to get species that they wouldn't release otherwise, like the gerbils, baby ostrich sitting, and coiled green snake.

As for farm animals... Horses have been a dominant idea for the past few years. Though there was only one braided (Thank goodness) several I felt were a little dramatized (though that's not necessarily a bad thing). I liked their newer breeds like the curly, and draft, but I hope for more like them this next year. There may be some more sheep, possible black. I expect a new boar and piglet as well, though I hope for a different species maybe like a duroc(!!!) etc. There may be some new kittens coming our way, and maybe some new dogs as well, I would guess dalmation (maybe with a pup), or a pug or beagle, though again I hope they have more imagination than that. And lastly, I hope for more chickens and cows, new breeds or revamps of older ones are tolerable.

Anyways, again I hope that they start moving towards a little bit more realism, or at least take that "cutesy" style that they were adamant on and use new species that actually suit that style, like golden snubnosed monkeys, or species of frog, or red pandas etc., that way everyone could get what they want.

arabain stallion i think. i hope for a new english thouroughbred familly. anglo arab would be awesome. also maybe some special and rare breeds would be very cool

I hope that they make some interesting animals that are worth collecting.

okay so my thorts are for wildlife thats all im gonna do haha but my thorts are




thats what im thinking

I really hope Schleich will make some species they didn't do before; that would bring my interest in the brand back My whole animal figurines collection started with Schleich and they have a special place in my heart, but I'm not overly fond of their work lately. Maybe they can stop focussing on their horses and put more effort in their other animals, but that would be most unlikely.

I'd like to see:
-Maned wolf
-Raccoon dog
-Ethiopian wolf
-Coati
-Sloth
-Bongo
-Short-eared owl

Well, and lots and lots more xD But just some new species and I would be very happy

A bongo from Schleich-thats a nice Joke-they even don't know whaht it is, tehy never herad of an Anim,al called"Bongo".Ethipoian Wolf ? Ha,Ha,Ha..just better joke.What comes next, Mountain nyala and Jentink Duiker ?

So my whislist for 2016 is:

palying kitten
sitting kitting
sleeping kitten
eating kitten
climbing kitten
kitten palying with a dog pu
playing dog pus
sleeping dog pup
eating dog pup
sitting dog pup
dog pup playing with kitten

playing rabbits
sitting rabbit
rabbit eating carrot
sleeping rabbit
rabbit with babies

White tiger cub
playing white tiger cubs
white tiger cub sleeping
white tiger cub aeting

Giant panda
Male
Giant panda
female
Giant Panda cub sleeping
Giant panda cub playing

Zebra Foal with flower in the mane
Zebra foal with a heart brand

New Lion family
lion cub playing
lion cub sleeping
lion cub eating etc.

So I'm sure, Schleich won't dissapoint me when comes to my new wish list...

I think we all hope that they can get back to who they used to be, but as with everything things have changed... I hope for more interesting species too, or at least better quality, but we can only wait.

They are releasing a Wonder Woman figure in the DC Comics line next year. They released a picture of it on Twitter.

They have a special edition Harley Quinn at San Diego Comic-Con so it wouldn't surprise me if they had a new Harley Quin figure next year too.

They'll probably finish the core seven of the Justice League, with Aquaman and Cyborg, since they're on the side of the box. Other popular ones like Martian Manhunter and Green Arrow are likely to appear with several other major villains.

Julie, Paige, etc. ... great wish lists!
Bongo, great speculation! Although being ironical, Bongo will guess several of them.
I wish:
- Pink fairy armadillo
- Lesser flamingo,
- Scarlet Ibis
- Resplendent quetzal
- Goblin shark
- Pink river dolphin
- Baluchistan Pygmy Jerboa
- Etruscan shrew
- Crab-eating macaque
- Fennec fox


10 are enough to be 10 times wrong.

I've stopped having any wishes if it comes to Schleich-the brand made it happen it is impossible to wish such species like any antelopes ( all of themw ere absolute poor sellers, in the toy stores in my home town you still can buy gnu, gazelles and Kudu...even OKapi!!)or ethipian wolfs-they don't make MONEY with them, everyone should accept this fact now...by the way, they never heared about Bongos,Mountain Nyala,Duiker, or something else, these are company men and women...

Depend on next year, I decide if I continue collecting Schleich, but I guess, I will stop it-so for this yera, I bought only a couple of their 2015 models. Collecta is the brand now....
