Here are photos I took at the London toy fair a few weeks ago.  Specific Bully, Schleich, Breyer and Papo photos are being posted in the relevant forums.  This post contains all other random images from various known and unknown brands:

1. There was a small stand set up the 'The Field' a company from IReland selling realistic looking farm playbases - not models but just the play base made with faux grass.  It is an interesting product and the concept is to help train young children how to become farmers when they grow up.  The base could easily be used for wildlife display sets and they are not that expensive.  More information on this niche product at: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]   Perhaps someone can do some more investigation on the product range and present here?  I was only at the stand a few minutes.

2.  In Germany in 2015 Playmobil have started to release a range of animals that can be bought in little foil packets as family units.  Now in 2016 they are released in the UK - here are images from the zoo set display only:

4.  Google 'Insect Lore' and you come across a non toy animal maker of educational toys.  You can buy real catrerpillars and feed them and watch them turn into butterflies then let them go in the summer.  Interesting and cute concept which I quite liked! :-)  http://www.insectlore.co.uk/

Breyer is up. Papo, Schleich and Bully to follow. Uploading images and obtaining image codes is soooo slow - the main reason it puts me off posting pics. Such a hassle. Nothing is quick and simple lol.

Haha technology is only good when it works And when it doesn't we're stuck with it!

Ha i am still uploading Bully pics - soooooo slow!!! and only 15 pics! Gosh, how long is it gonna take to upload papo and schleich when the quantity is triple that! I will be here all day hehe. Ok wish me luck.....they are coming :-)

Are you uploading them all at full size directly from the camera? That might be why it's so slow - I use Picasa to resize photos in bulk then upload, much faster

Here's the link to that if you're interested: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Thanks LeeAnn

I will look at this tonight - I have tons of Schleich images including that wonderful new Gemsbok to share with you all

Thanks Numaan for sharing this overview with us! It help us having a good idea how these events look like.
About uploading, I am sorry my suggestion with postimage.org was not useful to you. It is very easy and quite fast when you're uploading resized pictures. :)

Thanks Numaan, always interesting to see what they have at the different Toy Fairs.

I like the playmobil okapis!

Interesting
