| Thanks to Valérie's recent posts about Toy Major, I am trying to sort these figures at Toy Animal Wiki. It is not easy at all, we don't have a catalogue and Toy Major has already released a vaste lot of sets with figures of all sizes and sorts. However, I believe it is possible to group them in a comprehensive way as long as we use some information. Most Toy Major figures are marked with copyright, year, brand logo (TM in an oval), animal name and a letter, as you can see on the picture below. I know there are several of these figures among our friends' collections, they are often regarded just as random China figures but you can check easily if they're Toy Major or not. So, pictures are very important to start grouping these series and see which surprises the brand still has reserved for us. Adding to what is marked in each figure, it could be good to know if it is hollow or solide and how it compares in size with major companies. Thanks!

| There are some in the "Save Wildlife" page, but I have not taken them out of the sealed bags. Perhaps I should. They aren't worth gold, after all I have these also : Baboon, 2005, solid Cheetah ( Yes it does say chettah !!!), hollow, 1998. Mountain goat, solid, 1997 Reindeer, solid, 1997 I can mail the pictures to you if that is easier for you ? _________________ SUSANNE |

| Susanne, very efficient as usual! No, you don't need to remove these Fina figures from their original bags. You got the complete series and in sealed bags and I like that it is presented like that at Toy Animal Wiki. These molds, as far as I know, are not exclusive to that series so we can later introduce them also on Toy Major Wildlife page using pictures from other members that have them unsealed. You also don't need to send these great pictures to me, I can save them easily from this topic and I will upload them on TAI as soon as possible. Strange cheetah indeed but also a good example why it is good to know what is marked in each figure. Only a little request, what about the greater kudu of the picture I posted on first post? Don't you have it anymore? It may help me with a kudu confusion I have at the moment. |

| Thanks Julie, actually you already entered the humpback whale on TAI. You even identified the scale as 1:75. I've once found a picture of a 1994 Toy Major manta ray marked with 1:30 scale, so, if the humpback is also marked with scale, it may be from the same series. The wildebeest is also from 1994? the other figures I know from that year are really big so it may represent a kind of series of African animals in small size. |

| Oh! Then, I will add this comment about my own TM collection: ALL MY TOY MAJOR FIGURES ARE HOLLOW. The only "solid" part a TM piece has in my collection, is the manubrium of my Black Sea Nettle. Its bell is hollow. Like all my TM figures. |

| Actually I am quite curious about this elephant. It rivals in quality with the Schleich counterpart retired two years before and it is manufactured with a similar material. It weighs 238 g what is a respectable weight for a standard sized elephant figure. |

| Beno, what a unusual donkey! I opened a page on TAW for Toy Major Bendable Animals and I uploaded both bear and donkey. I had no idea bendable figures existed from TM but this company seems to have produced every kind of model. |

Taylor, it is only possible to sort Toy major models knowing what they have marked, namely the year and eventually a letter when it is available. If you have the chance of checking it, I'd be glad of uploading these pictures on TAW. |
