Choose 3 Australian animals to be included in Science and Nature range!

Science and Nature wants our suggestions to a future figure to be included in their Animals of Australia range.
So, each member can choose a maximum of 3 extant Australian animals and the most popular animals will enter in a final poll to determine the winner. 13th January is the last day for your choices and at 14th we'll start a poll with the most popular.
You can find all figures already released at Toy Animal Wiki, just check all collections.
Notice also that a [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] are planned to be included soon in Science and Nature range.
There are several websites you can find about Australian animals, here a link to Australian fauna at Wikipedia.
Your participation is important, stronger we are, more chances we have of having future initiatives like these. Thanks!

Thanks also to Science and Nature that is taking our opinions in consideration.

Small Kiwi from Science and Nature, a bird of New Zealand!

It seems that there is no end to the great news for us here in this wonderful forum
It is very hard to chose, - Australia seems crouded with amazing, beautyful, strange creatures

But as the Kea is already in progress, I don't relly find it difficult to pick three for new models

That´s easy for me I visited last year the country, first of all cause I´m fascinated by it. Geography, climate and vegetation - in Australia you find everything. And yeah, the country has such an incredible fauna. Even without visiting zoos and animal parks, you have in Australia the possibility to meet a lot of different animals.

In Queensland very popular and living already in cities: the australian bush-turkey. This animal is found everywhere in Queensland and so, I´m surprised that there isn´t a figure yet.

As science and nature already released popular animals like glider or possums and with soutland replicas releasing for example a lumholtz-tree-kangaroo, I think another figure I haven´t seen yet (despite an unknown china model) would be a long-beaked echidna.

The third choice is a little difficulter, cause we only have 3 choices^^ There are lot of interesting possibilities, cause there are lot of different kangaroos, possums or cockatoo spezies. So I choosed a bird, that already exists as an old figure, but that I was lucky enough to see in australian rainforest: the australian lyrebird.

My vote:
1) Thylacine (as I am not satisfied with Mojo sloppy-painted one and too big-headed Southern Replicas one)
2) Bush turkey (I have the Yowie but I need more realistic figurine)
3) Lyrebird (I have HK one but this is only plastic uralte Masse Figure remake...)

Great :) i will look for my suggestions :)

This idea is really fantastic. I wish we had more of these events. Many thanks Science and Nature!

Here is my vote:

1. Zebra Finch - Taeniopygia guttata
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

2. Galah the rose-breasted cockatoo - Eolophus roseicapilla

3. Blue-ringed_octopus

Lyrebird

Great thread and fantastic choices!  These are the ones I would vote for.

1. Australian Kelpie
2. Koolie
3. Brumby

Palm cockatoo- how come there's no figure of this magnificently insane looking bird!?
Galah cockatoo
Perentie goanna

Some good Australian animals are coming out now from other brands so Science and Nature could up its game if it wants to compete. Having said that, Australia has some spectacular birds - the Palm Cockatoo, the Brolga, and the Black Swan are three potential candidates; if lizards - the Perentie, Lace Monitor, and Carpet Python. Animals - Eastern Grey Kangaroo, Northern Hairy Nosed Wombat (critically endangered), and the super-cute Numbat. If you want obscure but cute - then the Bilby, Woylie and the Eastern Barred Bandicoot.

Well,

my choice is :

1 Ring tailed wallaby
2 Bush Turkey
3 Tree kangaroo ( any species)

1. Goanna or other monitor

2. Blue Ring Octopus

3. One of the various Jumping Spiders

How about Queensland lungfish Neoceratodus, Spotted Saratoga Scleropages leichardti and Speartooth Sharkm Glyphis glyphis!

1. Southern Right Whale Dolphin

Lot of your animals that you listed are already done by S&N as the black swan, grey Kangaroo, numbat, bilbie or bandicoot. There isnt´t a palm cockatoo yet, but a red-tailed black cockatoo :)

1. Pygmy Bluetongue skink - Tiliqua adelaidensis
2. Varanus giganteus  - Perentie
3. Australian snubfin dolphin - Orcaella heinsohni

Hey Christophe ! The common spotted cuscus is a good choice !

1. Long-beaked echidna [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

2. Tree Kangaroo [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

3. Spotted Cuscus [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Spotted Cuscus
Sugar Glider
Zebra finch, I would suggest some other mutation(not the wild color), it would be easier and cheaper to make... For example, Chestnut flanked white
