Show Us Yours- Pinnipeds (Seals,Sea Lions,Walruses)

Thankyou, Roger

I agree that the models from 00 to '01 are the best looking ones.

But the new sea lion does have some interest.
Could it be a Steller sea lion ? The rusty colour and the long neck ?

The fur has too much structure, but I think it deserves some positive points for mit being the usual "pyramid-shaped" model

I like your seal collection Susanne:)

Thankyou very much, Andres

Lots of beauties here Susanne! Your collection of pinnipeds is very impressive

Very nice collection too Simone!

Scott, you have also some good replicas of pinnipeds and I love these photos, really nice!

Lovely models,like the older Bullyland walrus and the fur seals.

Thankyou, Anna and Taylor

I am not able of identifying the species but maybe you're right. About the pose or design you're absolutely right, it is completely different from all these "classic" sea lions and that's a very positive point. :)

Beautiful collection Jean Luc!!

The Reisler one has been mine since late 1950's. As you can see, it has a dot of my mom's nail polish under a flipper

The good, old Schleich walruss !
The first years the tusks were more pointed than the last years :

These two look the same, - and they are !
Only the left one is from Maia & Borges
I suppose they made both their own and the ones for Schelich, as they are all made in Portugal

And one of my latest adiitions, the walruss from Safari Ltd !
This is one of the models that grows on me...actually I think he is fabulous  
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Unlike many models, he has the typical, rather little head sticking out from the enormously fat and powerful neck  
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I think he is in the last part of the mating season, as he is very slim...for a walruss

I know the story about the `` red dots``... Very funny . And I love very much the gift, which I have from you....the Reisler`s black panther :)

I had to mark them. My playmate's Reislers looked the same, but mine were MINE and they had names and personalities, so I had to mark them

It is fantastic the amount of pinnipeds you have in your collection Susanne. I enjoy particularly to see the Eikoh with the much older Reisler. Thanks for showing!

 I did not relize I had SO many ! But I LOVE pinnipeds  
Yes, aren't they cute together, and one made in Denmark, one in China, - but they have no problem talking together : Aruw, aruw, aruw !!!  

hahahaa ... that`s funny video

ªYes, that's funny indeed. I got the chance to see other videos showing these docile creatures interacting with humans.
