Thank you, Susanne and Roger Very Happy

Yes, the Haflinger really is wonderful and I think it is the best model of this breed nowadays.

The Hyena looks much better in real. I think this should be a female Spotted Hyena. Yesterday, in the Leipzig Zoo, I spotted a female, which had nearly the same shape.

Great ! I do not think I have ever seen a haflinger except on pictures. In Denmark small horses are 95 % Fjords or Iceys Very Happy

Leipzig zoo ! What a wonderful day you must have had !
Perhaps hyenas get much more furry, like this one from Papo, when they are moved from African desert to a colder environtment ? santa

Near my birthplace, there was a farm, which had many different animals. They also had two Haflinger, which were the first horses I've seen in my life.
The Leipzig Zoo was as amazing as always Very Happy
I think Hyenas in Zoos don't have to starve and so, they can grow up much better. Maybe, the Hyena from Papo is also based on an individuum from a zoo. scratch

My next newcomers arrived today. I've chosen the Safari Red-throated Hummingbird, the Arabian Stonefish, the Pelican Eel, the Olm, the Queen Triggerfish and the Lovely Hatchetfish:

Oh! I didn't know the queen triggerfish came in a small size!!! Is it a TOOB figure?

The pelican eel has teeth, which is incorrect, and the olm has an extra toe on each hind foot. Safari sometimes makes morphologic errors in their TOOB figures. I still have the olm, though, since it is so neat and I do no't think there are other figures of it.

Yes, both models show, that plastic rubbish can lead to mutations Laughing
The Queen Triggerfish isn't a Toob model, but there was a set of different Safari models, which included the Triggerfish, a Dolphin, a diver, a coral reef, a Sea Tortoise and a Goliath Grooper.

Ok ok, yes, that is a Coral Reef box set or something like that. I would LOVE both the triggerfish and grouper!

EDIT: It is called, Flippers, Fin, & Fun

Indeed, it's Flippers, Fin and Fun.
At Sandspielfiguren.de you can get the figures separately.

Indeed I've selected the triggerfish for my collection since I've discovered it in said store, because it's much smaller than the non-toob sized queen trigger of the same brand :)

Thank you, Andreas and Pardofelis.
I'm really happy, that I found this smaller Queen Triggerfish, because the other is too large for my collection.

Congratulations for your new sea animals. If I suddenly decided to start collecting dolphins and sharks, I'd surely start with all the rich Safari range first. Later, eventually adding some other species from other companies to complement but I think the majority of the species covered by major brands can be found on Safari. Pity that the crocodile shark is already so ahrd to find. Sad

Thank you, Andreas and Roger.

Yes, I'm also waiting for a Crocodile Shark model. But, I think that Safari will add it to their collection in the future.

Bonnetheads are the kind of sharks we never expect to see in toy shape, as it is the most distant from the idea we have of a hammerhead, it is naturally not a common choice . Larami made it in a series shark dedicated and now this one from Safari that is clearly the Western company with the biggest diversity of sharks. If I ever start collecting sharks, this bonnethead will be one of my priorities. Any special reason to you get the CollectA beluga whale, is it your favorite?

Thank you, Susanne and Roger Very Happy

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]: I also love the variety of sharks Safari has made. If I had more space, I would add much more of them to my collection. And first, I got the Papo Beluga, which looks really good. But the grey back was not really accurate. Then, I found an interesting article about Belugas and one was shown on an image. It looked exactly like the one from CollectA. So, I started to check this model and it's really accurate. The colouration is beautiful and also the teeth are well made and very accurate. In real, the model looks even better than in the catalogue.
