No, they are not.There will be a WW figure of something made for 2015. 36 different models will be 're-mastered'. I don't know what that means. Most have what seems to be the same stock photo while others have new paint jobs. And anyone who likes Australian wildlife will not be dissapointed. I hope I didn't say too much; I'm very pleased with the new figures. They only announced the tip of the iceberg. |

| You allready know them? You're a lucky guy! If there is much Australian wildlife I hope that there will be some new kangaroo species, maybe a wombat and a dingo. |

The even more ironic part is that it says most of them were released in September. I guess that's when retailers order them? because I haven't seen these on the shelves yet. |

Some of them are already on Amazon--must be special sellers or something, because I still can't eve get the info I would usually have. _________________ I used to have an online store, but now it's a Blog exploring the variety in my collection!

Remastering a mold is to make slight changes in a previous mold. They use the exact same mold as a previous figure that obviously is retired and make little changes to improve it. Sometimes the only improvement is the texture but often we can see some small changes. For example, pelican and toucan seem clearly to be remastered molds. Sometimes it is possible to make obvious changes like Mojö did with their moose, updating the figure to a completely different pose. Though, these changes can never be dramatic. Schleich is the master of remastering. Most of their horses are reused molds, slightly changed on mane, tail and sometimes pose, a new painting and a new breed and it looks a completely new figure. It, unfortunately, makes me think that the new line of Safari horses is likely composed of remastered molds. Not that I don't like their old molds, I am just really expecting for something really new. On the other hand, and sorry for such a long comment when some of you know already all news and I am only speculating, maybe it is not a bad idea to reuse the cape buffalo mold removing the grass and birds. |

I don't know anything about when information will be given out. Usually my catalog comes in the mail after everything's announced. |

| So... someone should ask them when they are going to finish announcing. I dont have a facebook and if I emailed they either wouldnt answer or I wouldnt get someone who would answer me. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Okay, now I've seen everything...There are a lot of remastered products...it's really great to see some older ones redone. One is so new, it almost seems crazy, but maybe they have reasons. As for toobs...well, at least there are animal ones this year? _________________ I used to have an online store, but now it's a Blog exploring the variety in my collection!
