I am not sure what snakes you want, but here this Boa ( Incredible Creatures Series) is with the latest Schleich Boa, and the Safari Cobra

Thankyou, dear Farnandoo !!

The salmon is also from the Incredible Creatures series and is 16,5 cm long, from the tip of the tail to the tip of the mouth

Oh, that Burmese python is not as big as I worried! Unfortunately I do not like the albino form since it is not its natural color.

Susanne, thanks a lot for pointing me to this new additions topic. I was missing it and it is unmissable for someone like me.
Of all these figures I could check since the start of the topic, my favorite is the Safari salmon. Yes, the old story, I have no room to collect such big figures but I truly love them.
I really need that kuokka and I love the way you pictured it, mainly the first of the pictures.
The Schleich lynx is incredibly poor in terms of painting. I don't use to be very exigente with the way how figures are painted but this one it too poor, mainly for a brand that some years ago was the best finishing their products. The sculpt looks decent, I hope someone repaint one of these to show on forum. The new Schleich wolf looks nice, even it it looks somewhat like a regular dog. I also like the Schleich lemur even if I have a little preference for the CollectA you're showing. On the other hand, the racoon is quite strange with these long limbs. As you tell, Schleich new figures are not outstanding but still nice and desirable.
Wanting also to give my personal recommendation to Blaine, Safari wolves are the best in my opinion, both grey and Arctic and for a mandrill, I think the Papo figure is quite nicer than the Schleich one, mostly because of its correct proportions.

Long time since I got news, but recently I got a wonderful box from Oliver  Zell

Three little cuties from Papo

Unfortunatly my collector's fever made me buy the "new S&N" dinos, but they were a serious dissapointment .
They are marked RECUR, and are small and cheap looking. Here I have not even taken them out of the bags.
I'll try to make a separate topic about them later

BUT !!!!!
Who can stop being happy, when the new Southlands Models are now here ?
They are just fabulous, - I can't stop looking at them !        
Sculpt, paintwork, choice of species . Southlands again shows eveyone how it has to be done

The eagle needs a little help to stand, but look at this model ! Have you ever seen anything so detailed and eagle-looking ?  
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

The emu is just perfect !!! I don't know what else to say  
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Look at those legs and feet !
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

And his head ! He has exactly that stern, slightly stupid look that they have !
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

And have you seen those featers. I can almost see the silky texture moving in the breeze

The perentie !!!
I don't think  there ever was a model of a moitor this perfect  
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Last, and certainly not least : Mrs Diprotodon      
She is hollow, and there is a visible glue-line, but I could not care less.
I LOVE HER

She stands next to my bed at night, and tells me wonderful stories about life in ancient Australia

I agree for 100%

Also the newcomers by Papo will have also a place in my collection.

It gives me a lot of joy anytime you post your new figures. Your new additions are so beautiful and really well presented.
My favorite ones are these superb Southlands and it is thanks to you that I also own these masterpieces. I take always a long time but I will show mine either on forum. The perentie is just unbelievable and how nice that your pictures give justice to it.
I knew you couldn't resist to the Bullyland wild cat. I also love the prestosuchus, it could be easily a choice for my collection if I was in a prehistoric mode and I believe one of your Papo's will someday have a place in my aviary.

Wonderful lot, especially the southland replicas, and okapi.

Big Congrats Susanne.

these Southland figurines are wonderful!

Thankyou for your kind comments, dear friends
