| So I happened to get an Ebay lot that contained lots of animal figures-including some raptors from K&M. They are by far my favorite part of the lot. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]DSC_8248 by E H, on Flickr [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]DSC_8249 by E H, on Flickr This one was simply marked "Vulture." I think it's supposed to be an Indian white-rumped vulture.

| I have to second Susanne's words. I was reticente of getting some of these K&M tube figures because I did know them from local shops and mainly these poor recente releases. While Play Visions have a general good quality and a certain balance between their figures, K&M have a huge disparity in quality. These birds are surely among their best and I was lucky of receiving 3 of them from Sue and Lesley and a great trio... bateleur, red-tailed hawk and Philippine eagle. The hawk is my favorite although I agree the bateleur is a fantastic figure. |
