Mojo Fun2018 - All figures revealed!

They shared these today. Very reminiscent of Schleich's old rearing black stallion and two mustang stallions.

You have a good eye, they are actually the same moulds. These mould were never owned by schleich and have always been owned by M&B. We thought the models were so beautiful we wanted to reintroduce them to the market. We decided to partner with M&B so that a new generation of collectors could get their hands on this wonderful piece.

I wondered that, since you partnered with M&B. I didn't realize they weren't Schleich's. I absolutely adored this mold as a child, so I will definitely be buying these two to get triplets of my favorite childhood toy.

I have some things to tell about this release in future, now I have limited web access. I am glad Chris cleared things up to avoid unneeded and unfair acusations of plagiarism. Though, it is always disputable if it is a good idea or not to bring molds already known from other brands.

I think bad idea to reintroduce old models. It is waste of money. You have nice new models and fantastic horses(by Anna). It is a more realistic category/quality than old models. Collectors prefer choose the most realictic models.

Is there more wildlife and prehistoric?

There are a few categories with reveals left to come :)

Wow, what an awesome elephant seal. Another M&B model right?

Yes while we have adjusted the paint styles the original mould is M&B :)

Already active on Instagram and Facebook about telling people that it is not plagiarism (as you als comment on Facebook :))

M&B's water bird molds are wonderful. I would love it if Mojo used them, as that would make them more available in the US. The dog molds are nice, too.

Cute, but not a fan of this sculpt

I was going to say the same.

Here is the elephant seal Mojö is presenting. It is the good old mould from Maia & Borges we all know from Schleich 1:32 scale sea Animals series. Do we feel a musky odor?

Now we soon have all the old Made-in-Portgal Schleich sealife animals and many of the horses made for other brands. Ohh, yes, and the musk ox, and exotic fishes

It is great, if they are painted differently, but I am not very happy if they are the same, such as we see with the whales, the octopus etc.

I really like the elephant seal. I do feel, however, that Mojo is bring out very common and "small" species this year. I think the Elephant Seal is great because of its uniqueness. And you know me, looking for wildlife with hooves and horns!

Nice elephant seal

Amazing horse-news. I love when companies re-use old models but I expect maybe other coat for The mustangs

Dear friends from STS forum, I didn't expect such enormously enthusiastic reactions for this simple, standing warmblood horse model! Thank you so much! I feel very happy to read so many compliments about this model and I feel a bit overwhelmed too!
Many thanks, Susanne, Chris, Paige, Barracudacat, Tupolew, Blaine, Christophe, Codru, LeeAnn, and Noemi!

this compliment might be belated but i'd like to say that STS is so proud that you are a part of the community, a very talented artist and an active collector of animal figurines.

Very nice models and yes, this is absolutely the right way to release them!  This is wonderful news for people that haven't gotten these amazing horses or seal the first time around.  I hope you'll be rereleasing some of the canines as well.

I think most collectors would want both versions and kids would simply choose their favorite breeds/species regardless of the sculptor, but this is simply my opinion. I can understand your concern, though.
