Megaptera's Collection

Great additions

Thank you, everyone

Nice newcomers

Thank you, Christophe. Thanks to your wonderful Okapi walkaround, I decided to add the CollectA one to my collection

Great, I'm glad this topic was helpful

Today, I found a small shop in Weimar, where they sell Schleich, Bullyland, Papo and even Safari models.
So I've got the Safari Chinstrap Penguin and the wonderful Oceanic Giant Manta:

So I got the horned lizard today :-). It is much nicer than I thought. I agree the spines on the body are not sculipted, but the form, pose, and color are very nice.
I am also convinced it is a Texas horned lizard.
The Merino sheep came with it! Nice!

EDIT: I reviewed in on the Animal Toy Blog: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Thanks for the information. I'm glad that you also identified it as a Texas horned Lizard.

Today, I decided to repaint the tail of my Lion-tailed Macaque. Now, it's more realistic:

Well done! The idea to make a ring-tailed-lemur tail in a macaque was just weird.

Indeed

very nice Megaptera; such an interesting species. Chap Mei has some cool sculpts but often exaggerated paint jobs.

Much better now

Congratulations, already done on mine!

Thank you, everyone
Now it's really better:)

Good decision taking the CollectA okapi. I use the Papo one but not exactly because it is better but just because I love it so much.
Did you know that the Safari chinstrap penguin is the same figure you can see in Colorata Penguins of the World?

No, I didn't know that. It's a pity that the Colorata models are quite rare...

Nice and clever repaint

Thank you, Christophe.

Today, I've got this Plumed Basilisk from my daughter. It's a quite small model:

You got also gifts from your princess. I am sure a very special figure for you now :)

Yes, I always wanted to have a Basilisk. And she found that one for me
