The Second Lineols came in for 2011!

Yesterday i had the Lineol Hippo in again, yes, again...
My first model was not in the shape i aspected, and i found another one for a very very friendly price!
You could not even buy a retired Schleich for that, haha.
This guy is in better shape as i said before, and somewhat darker then my first one.
The earlier one travels to Germany...

And with the much to small, and next to this guy odd looking Schleich model.

Isn't he a great guy?

Lionel hippo looks great! Nice addition to have!

WOW Willy, what a FABULOUS addition, he's beautiful!!!!

Lineol figure better than 99% of new Schleich...
The older figure lines(Lineol, Britains etc.) still hold up today!

Congratulation for your new gem Willy

Wonderful Hippo Willy

Congratulations my friend!

Big congratz Willy, He looks fantastic

Do you know what brand it is ? If you send a picture, the experts here will surely know



Congratulations, Willy, it is a fantastic figuere

A impressive model as the most models of Lineol, congratulations Willy .

Thank you all guys, a new Lineol is always as a great present, when it comes in!
And now, i can make somebody else happy in Germany with the first one i had...

Ooh, a hippo I don't have! (... yet) He's gorgeous!

Well Sumo, try to get it...
I paid about 55 euro for my first one, but only 8 for my second one..., you have to get lucky sometimes...

On saturday i had these two Lineols coming in.
Since i had the VEB Plaho plastic copy of the Lineol Elephant-Seal, i wanted the original to, and i found him in perfect condition for only 9 euro, and the Lineol Great White Pelican(which is pink actually) i found for the same price to, so this was a very good deal again for me.
Here they are:

Congratulations. the elephant seal is amazing.

Wow, those look great! It's always nice to see a good elephant seal model, there aren't nearly enough of them.
