I know some of these from my childhood. These are monochromatic knock-offs from Poland made during communistic era.
Some originals are Britains (camel, bison, bear), Marx (kudu) or RAE (aardvark).

Yes I recognize the Britains bison as I own it from my childhood.

Most are in pairs so perhaps a Noah's Ark set.

Well tough the snake is alone (as a punishment for tempting Adam and Eve? ) and the lions are two males, the poultry are two hens and the cattle are two cows :)

I would think it would be more fun to think this bird snatched the arm off a human corpse!

I have all the information but I'm just after someone to clarify which brand I should label this under...

I recently remembered I found a snake in a box of coco pops (breakfast cereal) when I was younger...its OK though, it was just a toy! I don't know what happened to the origional but I managed to find one on ebay still in packaging.

Neither the snake nor packaging has a species name on but I'm adamant I remember it being named a green mamba on the back of the cereal box.

We've got 'safari in my pocket' and 'vivid imagination ltd' on the bag.

Would I class this under vivid imagination ltd or safari in my pocket?

I guess the brand is Vivid imagination ltd and 'Safari in my pocket' is the line

Vivid Imagination was the original manufacturer of the 1990's M.E.G. Puppy in my Pocket and Kitty in my Pocket figures. This snake is from their promotional Safari set issued in cereal boxes. I don't have it but I do I have a warthog and some other animals from that set.

That's right, kellogs coco pops. Maybe other kellogs cereals too.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Could it be Max Carl ?

It was an east German brand, which became a VEB ( Owned by the people) in 1952.
The production was hut down in 1972.

I think a old american brand or cereal figures, but what brand exactly?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

The animals are definitely cereal premiums.  In the USA back in the late 1950s - early 1960s, several well-known toy companies made cereal premiums.  I <think> these were made by Timmee, but I'm not absolutely positive.  Could have been made by Marx since towards the end of the 1960s, they tended to produce brightly-colored toys.

I have most of those also but mine came in a package which merely said "Wild Animals - Made in China".

A fellow collector from Poland, Dorota (also a member of this forum, nick: Dorotheah) has found very interesting horse models from the times of her childhood. I wanted to help with identification but I really think I see them for the first time. She let me share the photos here on this forum.
Does anyone know what brand are these horses? We think they may be originally designed in Poland but perhaps they are re-casts of other brands from a different country? They are at least 30 years old. The size is similar to Britains horses.

The photo comes from Dorota's blog where you can also see more photos of these models: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

These horses make me think they're a blend of Hagen Renaker mini horses and Hartland TinyMites.  The brown one on the right in particular looks similar to the Hartland TinyMite Arabian.

I bought this dog in a lot of innovative kids animals, it has a K and China on the bottom but nothing else, I’m assuming it’s innovative kids like the other animals in the lot but I’m not 100% sure and I can’t figure out what set it might be from if it is innovative kids, if anyone can help I would appreciate it:)

Innovative Kids figures, at least those in the Groovy Tube books series, were marked with a 'K' so it could very well be an Innovative Kids figure!

I have the Innovative Kids dogs shown on TAI above. Dogs are totally different. Could be from a different / newer set or from one of the Innovative Kids Junior Groovies books.
