Show Us Your Amphibians!

Even if I am aware that Christophe has a special taste for amphybians, I don't know if I was ready to see so many! They look so wonderful together.

Thank you Andreas and Rogério

 wonderful collection!!.. and so beautiful patterns and colours to admire!.. I would never have tought so many species replicas were edited!.. mainly thank to asian brands I suppose.. Thank you for sharing!

Nice display! I need to look into shallower shelves that are closer together!

Mine are deeper and I use raisers

Thank you Caracal;

Mainly Japanese indeed except a big Safari Ltd batch

I never imagined I would collect amphibians the way I am doing for years now, those are really special for me.

When I began collecting I wanted to build jungles and savannahs which enjoyed my child dreams ( Clairet and Starlux).Then in the early 2000's I discovered a wide wild world full of animals from everywhere. I never really recover since then

Yes, those shelves are not too deep for "standard size" models, it's not the same story with dinosaurs and baleens.

My Carboniferous/Permian swamp (top picture). Most of the figures depicted are amphibians. The bottom two are Triassic amphibians, therefore exempt from my diorama.

Play Visions:
• Triadobatrachus
• Platyhystrix
• Gerrothorax
• Peltobatrachus
• Eryops
• Eogyrinus
• Crassigyrinus

Kaiyodo:
• Ichthyostega
• Acanthostega
• Eryops
• Diplocaulus

Tedco Toys:
• Diplocaulus
• Icthyostega

I am still looking for the Play Visions diplocaulus if anyone has it.

Very nice diorama with beautiful trees.

very nice dio with very interesting species and vegetation!

Nice

My new Ikimon/Kitan Club Japanese giant salamander:

Japanese figures are always so good! And this Giant Salamandor is so realistic!

Aaaa I love these giant salamander models! That Japanese giant is incredible, it looks completely alive, and that little hellbender is so cute!

Thanks Jill

I managed to finally gather most of my amphibians into pictures, so now I can share them here.

The frog on the upper left might be my first frog. The fishing lure frog below I also got when I was very young, from a zoo gift shop. On the right: K&M International southern two-lined salamander, unbranded tiny crested newt, glow-in-the-dark emperor newt


That's all, for now!

Hey @A.R.Garcia, question--who made the emperor newt? I've never seen one as a figure.

That's excellent to know. It sounds like it's pretty hard to find in painted form

Actually I think we don't know anything about Great Explorations. The other figure we know is what seems to be a eyed ladybug on Blaine's collection. Another very unusual animal. It seems Walmart sells glow-in-the-dark stars branded Great Explorations, I have no idea if it is the same brand.
Interesting in that picture is also the K&M two-lined salamander, probably the same mould as this fire salamander.
