Animal Figurines Gone Wild

Subject: Animal Figurines Gone Wild Tue Feb 16, 2016 10:19 pm

No, this is not another outdoor photography topic. Have you ever noticed any animal figurines in the 'wild'? Meaning, in books, magazines, adverts, movies and even games? Brands like Schleich-S and Breyer seem very popular in movies and adverts. But other brands and unknown/made in China figurines can be spotted as well. Have you noticed any animal figurines gone wild? Take photograph, scan that page or make a screenshot and share these wild figurines in this topic!
