| The models from Incredible Creatures are often very large and may not be of any interest to people who collect to scale. But the size also gives these models a lot of charm, IMHO, and often when I order from spielzeug-guenstig.de/ , I can't resist getting one or two Here are three , which I got recently The hamster here must be a Golden Hamster , and female. She is described to be a scale 1 : 3,6 , but as she is app 11 cm long she is actually nearly 1 : 1 She is made of solid material and weight 136 gram [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]In my opinion the Eastern chipmunk is more interesting, - actullay I love this model In the catalogue he is described as being scale 1:1 , but according to Wikipedia this critter is 30 cm long, and the model is 14 cm from nose to the tip of his tail. Well, perhaps this model is a very young one The model is hollow, but still rather heavy, - 130 gram. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The last one is an emperor penguin with chick. The model 11,5 cam tall and the weight only 75 gram, - so he is hollow, but I can's see where he is glued [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]:D:D |

| They are all lovely Your chipmunk is 1:1, that would be a mega-chipmunk at 30cm Cute little buggers, there are two out my window right now chasing each other |

| Congrats, Susanne! They are very interesting indeed, especialy Eastern chipmunk (in my opinion) _________________ My shadow's the only one that walks beside me, My shallow heart's the only thing that's beating.

| I don't use to like large figures, except when they are lifesized and Safari Incredible Creatures have some in real size what I appreciate. I hope someday, to collect some of these 1:1 scale figures. My favorite is also the chipmunk, I think 30 cm is not an average size but the largest size for an Eastern chipmunk. Also, that pose, maybe is not easy to measure once they are measured stretched. However, there is a similar looking species that is smaller, the least chipmunk, probably easily customizable from that mould that could fit better that size. They're hollow but extremly well finished and relatively dense what puts them close to the weight of a real animal. So, 130g, puts it inside the weight range of that species. I don't know if it is a youngster, they look very small watching them in human hands. Thanks for showing! |

Thankyou, Andreas Yes, they are to large scale, but compared to many other models , for instance dinosaurs and whales , they are not very big [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| A craft store nears me sells this line too, I admire them but they really are just too big. I have to wonder why a smaller version of the Chipmunk isn't available? Maybe one day. I think the paintwork is really good on the two rodents! |
