Starting out my collection.

I am more than excited to expand my collection of animal figures. My first ordered animal figure, a Safari LTD Black Panther, is here. Three more Safari LTD figures, a Grizzly bear cub, a Bull Shark, and a Sabertooth Tiger, are on their way.

Here are a couple shots of the panther.

And just because, here are two snakes that came with a G.I. Joe action figure:

Look forward to more!

I love that panther

WOW !!!! Those snakes are marvellous
How big are they ?

Perhaps we need a copy of that picture  here : [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

I look forward to see your new ones also

Great to see your collection starting! Actually, I am very curious to see how your collection developes. You have an interesting collecting profile once your influence seems based on action figures. So, your choices based on different biomes is not surprising at all once among them there's a panther, a bear, a shark and a sabbertooth, animals very common in action figures world. I suspect you'll love some Papo like their roaring big cats.
You're also bringing a subject that we are not very confortable yet but that is very interesting. Many action figures have animals included as you're showing with that cobra and snake. Maybe you can enrich the know-how of our community.

Thanks! The snakes look bigger in the picture, but they are rather small. Not sure the exact measurements, though, so I don't know if they're in scale with the panther.

If I get any more action figures that includes animals, I'll definitely take a picture of it!

That's great to know!

Wonderful, especially the coral snake

Along with those snakes, the G.I. Joe figure also came with this reddish crocodile. Again. not sure if in scale with the panther or not.

Not a pink panter, but an orange crocodile

Also nice

apparently it's fashion savvy?

Congrats.

Ooh, nice little coral snake
Congrats on all of them!

Thanks everyone!

I have another new addition. This time, a Grizzly bear figure by Battat. Picked this up at Target, and it should go nicely with the cub figure I have incoming.

Look, the bear and panther are friends! Hopefully...

Very nice additions! The bear is great!

Congratulations for your new Battat and thanks for sharing your red croc with moveable jaws. These reptiles surely belong to the G. I. Joe Croc Master.

Indeed! Blowtorch and Croc Master are my first two G.I. Joe figures!

Also, here's my Safari LTD Grizzly Bear cub.

I'm also in the process of trying to decide the next figure I'll order, because why not

The bear cub is ever so lovely

But what catches my eye is the Battat bear ! I have never seen it before, and it is a beauty

Those two bears are great together , and and the panther gives it a bit of action-model style too

Thank you! I picked up the Battat bear at a Target store here in the U.S.A, and I'm very happy with it!

Well, actually I don't know anything about G.I. Joe figures, except that many collectors used Chap Mei figures as a complement to them. I googled your snakes and I've found that they belonged to the Croc Master set. So, I am not definitively a Croc Master in this matter.
If you check other collection topics, you'll surely find good pictures and suggestions to guide you through your collecting hobby. You've got a another lovely bear, maybe Papo standing American black bear is a good option for you.

Nice bears

So, I got this big Alligator figure from a shop yesterday. No idea what brand this is.

And here is the Safari LTD Bull Shark

Great crocodile

The bull shark is just fantastic

Congratulations, - your collection grows rapidly

Congratulations, isn't your alligator marked ventrally?

If there is some sort of brand marking on it, I missed it.

Thanks, lots of figures are not marked at all. :)
