I want to go there

Ohh that officer and horse from Zvezda
But 1812R, that is more than 30 Euro, I think
Well, not much compared to large a Breyer-horse

PS: I would LOVE to see pictures from the Red Aquare

Haha
I even didn't look at price! XD It is 30,35 euros, I counted. Actually, Breyer aren't very-very expensive as you can think. Of course, not cheap as Schleich, which I can buy 7 animals in one time (should say, it's rare situation).
But yeah, Zvezda's figurines are handsome.
Wait not much, I'll add photos from Red Square later

But what beautiful colorful ponies you got! I really like these too although I usually prefer natural look
You're planning on getting more of these?

Yes, I'm calm now, this visit relaxed me up
Yes, I want the green one. I would like to see one more pink horse (I don't know the breed), but I think there is something strange in her legs...

You know, I always pay attention for a head, and if I don't like head, I won't buy horse. There was an Icelandic (?) horse, but his/her head was angular. I also didn't like the violet one.

It is perhaps the oldest and the elitest shop in Russia, GUM (Main Universal Shop, so it's MUS at English)

And let's go next.

Anasta, thanks for sharing your experience in that TOY "Sobbor"... what a magnificent shop! I hope it distracted you enough from your commented tragedy and I hope after all this time you're feeling better.
Congratulations for your new figures and we need to know more about Zvezda, we don't have a single Russian brand in Toy Animal Wiki and although toy industry is mixed with handcrafting in Russia, we know it has a wonderful and long tradition.
Also thanks for Moscow pictures, anytime I see pictures from the Kremlin I think always how can a place be so incredible!

Thankyou, thankyou for the pictures !!!
SO much more informative that the usual, official shots we see ! They always make it look like Kreml is far out in the country

All those beautyful, old buildings...I just can't stop looking

Well, Zvezda doesn't specialize of animals, they make military themes: military machines, soldiers and etc. Also they make build-up figurines, which are the most their part actually. Not for long time ago, they started make cartoon characters. There is their official site (available at English), but not all functions are working right now — [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Also we have a new company «Prosto Toys», which make cartoon characters (russian characters in general) — [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
I didn't tell about them before, cause those companies don't make real animals. But, if to be clear, I knew about Zvezda not much time ago.
Yes, this place look so impressive! And I saw so many foreighners in here! It was fun, when I passed by one american company and one girl cuss by one guy, using strong words. It's interesting to understand almost all words, while they even don't guess that you hear all XD By the way, I saw the most part of foreigners near Saint Basil's Cathedral

You're very welcome
Not so far

Hi, friends
I don't do that propersely, but it seems that I'm sharing my photos with you already third day in a row.
Now I would like to show you my another addition — new Schleich Friesian Stallion. He is AAAHH! He's glossing even at a dim light.
Many people say that he's too thin, but the problem doesn't lie in that. The problem is that his head and neck are too big for such body. Other problem is his hooves. But he has very-very nice details: fur at all, ears, nose... And this boy has a living sight!..
And... he is thoroughbred German! German brand, has arrived from Germany and... made in GERMANY! Finally!
Let me introduce you with my Ludwig (I also can do a detailed walkaround, but I think, we don't need it, cause Shanti already did it).

His halter is working, but...
...in a strange way.

Thank you for sharing your beautiful photos! And congrats on your new additions!

You know, I DON"T like Breyer. Don't hate me, please, it's my opinion. I just think that Breyer horses look like statues and they haven't this spirit, or soul, like Schleich-like horses. I don't want to hurt feelings of Breyer lovers, I repeate that it's just my opinion.
But each rule has an exception. And I liked those guys very much.

I collect Breyers and I agree that many of the molds look like statues. I can also think of a few that are sculpted to be in motion, but there is such a stiffness about them that they don't look like they are really running. Some are better than others in that regard I suppose.

Love your new translucents! And especially your new Friesian! He is quite stately.

I didn't thought that Breyer lover can agree with me

Thanks for links Anasta, I saved them for my future reference but from what I could see, you're right, no reasons to put these companies on TAI because they don't have a comprehensive series of animal figures.
That's natural that most part of the foreigners were close to Saint Basil's cathedral. It is, by far, the most emblematic building of Moscow Kremlin. But, as you know much better than I, Kremlin has a never ending number of buildings and places to visit, I wonder how much all these foraigners and visitors loose. Maybe they think it is St. Basil's and that's all!
Nice to know you're better!
By the way, congratulations for your new Frisian, we have a new popular figure on forum and it is for now, just a special edition.

Nice topic Anasta, it is not only a new adds, it is also a fantastic touring agency Thank you for sharing all those beauties with us! I missed some posts so I'm sad you had a tragedy and I'm happy to read you are feeling better, have a big hug Anasra

I thought so too, about the companies
Some buildings were under reconstruction, so I couldn't see them. But yeah, there are so much buildings that you can see! It depends of how much you have energy at the moment XD I were to tired to visit something, except Red Square. I would like to visit other riverside; there is so beautiful view from here.
Yes, if even I own him now He just was too tempting, being on eBay by seller, I'm watching about for a long time. He was pretty expensive, but, I think, sometimes we can afford such purchases

Thank you, Christophe! Nice to hear those words from you

Beutiful photos of the new Friesian, Ludwig
Seems like the too small halter is a common issue with this set
