Superb finds! That big crab and lying down tiger are especially wonderful.

Nice tiger.

And do you have please a link for the ocean set?

Great finds! Can the Wild Republic tiger and cheetah-jaguar be put in other poses that look realistic?

Fine (AAA?) tiger!

Caracal-the Tiger is AAA
Roger-sadly the poseable animals aren't the best for realistic poses!
Andreas-the Sealife set are marked made in China but it does have a company name on the box,not sure if they commissioned the models or the importers-Padgett Bros(A to Z)Ltd.Ossett,Wakefield,WF5 9NJ,UK.
Paige-if you wish you can have the Spider crab as I don't collect them and was going to put it up for trade along with the Manta ray.

Thanks

I would love to rehome the crab. :)

All yours Paige.

A nice lot group of models from my holiday in Spain.I generally research holiday destinations for toy shops before I go but I was lucky as I found a lot of the models near my hotel in souvenir/beach shops-they sometimes have toy sections but these can vary form brand models to china animals!
First shop had a small selection of Schleich and dino models and also some BDQ Toro bravos.They only had one model of each so I managed to get these 2,and also a fur seal by AAA of Comanshi

The second shop which wasn't far from the first shop had a larger selection of toys and a larger selection of models but only 1 of each, and strangely they consisted of Safari/Mojo/Bullyland/Collect A and no Schleich!
Bullyland dogs-the Rottie is a tiny bit faded form sitting in sunny window and the nice little Aussie and a great Smilidon
Also another BDQ Toro bravos

And finally some models from a flea market near a town called Fuengirola-it has the largest flea market in the region.There were a lot of stalls selling toys including a few with solely Playmobil.I managed to get to a few stalls but sadly not a lot as we were with friends and they were taking us to lunch and had only come to look at one stall.
Made in china Poodle,Persian cat and GSD

Almost for this guy.Got him at Malaga Airport.They had a large selection of Schleich and a good selection of Wild Republic tubes and Polybags including the North American one,which is not always and easy one to find!
The Noriker is very nice but looks a little more like a Percheron to me.

What an exciting time you must have had Taylor? lots of new models! Well done!
The stamp on the bulls is very impressive (not that I'm into branding live animals), but it looks good on the bull models. Never heard of that brand before.

And the little dog on the left is so cute with a fun expression, an Aussie?

and the St Bernard with the tongue out, looks cute as well.

That flea market sounds amazing! the poodle is incredible, I had no idea such novel figures existed!

Thank you.I was surprised at how easy it was to find the models especially as the shops were souvenir/beach shops!!The flea market was huge and great ans I would have loved to stayed and explored it more.

Congrats

Very interesting lot, I like the toros, and the GSD dog.

Oh my, your haul is amazing! Congratulations on so many models! The bulls are all amazing, I forget how splendid they are as they don't pop up on forum much. The AAA fur seal pup(?) is great too! The Bully, M&B, Safari, Schleich, old CollectA... all wonderful of course. Is that the NewRay GSD from their specialty line? I rather like that poodle and kitty too. Congrats on all! I am glad you had a good time.

Thank you all folks.
Paige-the sitting GSD,I will need to check if its New Ray as all I could see was made in China on it.
