Figures that should be done by CollectA in the next years.

And is there any chance that Collecta will read this and make some of this figures?

Vasilis, I love your wish list! So many cool animals you found! If your wishes come true, I'd buy all of them!!

I would love to see more color options on some of the horse molds, especially the newer ones that are only available in one color. I love variety! 

I would especially love to see the Standardbred in bay, the Percheron mare in black, a leopard pattern on the Appaloosa Stallion, a solid color on the Pinto mare and Foals, the Missouri Foxtrotter mare in black, the Shetland Pony in a white grey or pinto, the Trakehner Stallion, Hanoverian Mare, Australian Stock Horse Stallion, and Quarter Horse stallion in other solid colors, etc.

Warpaint could be a cool thing as well depending on the breed.

I want see many Salamander Figure with Google details . And a Tigersalamander then I will be so happy . To have a Figure off my own animals

My hope is to see some more wild canids (coyote or raccoon dog etc.), smaller wild felids (caracal for instance), and maybe some more wild deer. They have done a great job with antelope, and I'm sure they would do just as good a job on an elk family or a musk deer for example.

Same here I'd love to see one of the major brands make a raccoon dog and I think CollectA would be my best chance But I'd love to see other wild canids as well; please, make us an Ethiopian wolf!!

The first complete edition of "Platero and I" was published in 1917. So 2017 is the 100th aniversary of  one of the most beautiful books about animals ever written. This lyric portrait of life—and the little donkey, Platero ("Silvery")—in a remote Andalusian village is the masterpiece of Juan Ramón Jiménez, the Spanish poet awarded the 1956 Nobel Prize for Literature.

It would be great to see an Andalusian Donkey in 2017, specially if sculpted by Deborah McDermott.

Here you are the first chapter of "Platero and I", just to serve as inspiration:

Platero is a small donkey, a soft, hairy donkey: so soft to the touch that he might be said to be made of cotton, with no bones. Only the jet mirrors of his eyes are hard like two black crystal scarabs.

I turn him loose, and he goes to the meadow, and, with his nose, he gently caresses the little flowers of rose and blue and gold.... I call him softly, "Platero?" and he comes to me at a gay little trot that is like laughter of a vague, idyllic, tinkling sound...

He eats whatever I give him. He likes mandarin oranges, amber-hued muscatel grapes, purple figs tipped with crystalline drops of honey...

He is as loving and tender as a child, but strong and sturdy as a rock. When on Sundays I ride him through the lanes in the outskirts of the town, slow-moving countrymen, dressed in their Sunday clean, watch him a while, speculatively:

—"He is like steel," they say.

Steel, yes. Steel and moon silver at the same time.

Fantastic Read ! and truly most expressively written ..the extract from the book says a lot about the author. The art work is classic material. Thank you for this marvelous information about the Book. CollectA is the only company that would probably make figures like this, Lonesome George the Pinta Island Tortoise comes to my mind immediately !!

Ohhh, yes ! We ceratinly need a musk deer
They are beautyful, mysterius looking creatures and should not be that hard to make ( for those who can ).

Isn't it strange that we don't have a lot of those  ? As far as I know, there is only the one from E.L.C. to choose from

In England, I understand, they are extremely common ( even if invasive)

Given the diverse CollectA prehistoric mammal collection this prehistoric musk deer at the Stuttgart Museum may still have a chance too ! Micromeryx !!

Lots of great suggestions on here, so I'm almost afraid to add too many more. I too would love to see a Takin. And really, CollectA has started doing showing such promise with with lesser-known ungulates (forest reindeer, Hirola - great choices!), that I'd be happy to see more of them.

Most of all, I want to second Vasilis's suggestion, though: I'd love to see a bear species we don't see represented in plastic very often, like a sloth bear, spectacled bear, or moon bear. These species are seldom made. But I like the suggestion of doing one of the lesser-known Brown Bear subspecies, too, like the Tibetan Blue or Syrian bears. Of course, I'm sure they won't want to be releasing a whole sleuth of bears all at once, but any one of those suggested would be great.

Hmm... I want SO much a Marwari Horse <3 *.* Maybe Bushkir Curly and Tinker ? :)
