Four Classics-series piggies

We don`t see many pigs in this forum, actually I can only remember Kristies cute, little singing pig

So let me introduce some piggies
In Gascher`s book about schleich there are two small, fat pigs in the Classics-series, no 12206 and 12207.
But actually there are 4
(Ok, here are two of the no 12207)

Seen from the front. The two to the left are the oldest and not in Gascher`s.

The old boar has no 352, I do not know what number the sow has. Can anybody help ?

Very cute!! Thanks for sharing Susanne!

Awwww such sweet little faces!!!!!

Thank you Kristie, Ken and Lacey

nice pigs

Cuteeeee!

They are SO sweet!

Hello Susanne. I believe that the pigs you've pictured here are a 12206 Eber, 352 Eber and two of the three 352 Ferkel variants. There are also 352 Schwein and 12207 Schwein not pictured here.

Great little piggies. Thanks for sharing.

Wonderful !!! I love to learn something new

I was almost sure that the "newer" sow was the 12207, as she is also pictured in the Pig Family here :

The other sow is also somewhat bigger than the piglets that I have seen..

Can you or anybody show me pictures to illustrate ?

Here are some links for you, Susanne:

Thankyou

I always use this site + Torben`s + Gascher`s.
But, but...they all prove that I am right

Please tell me why you do not think they are ?
I am very confused.

Here (from left) The mini, one of the piglets (ferkel), the sow 12207 and the sow 352, - I am 99,9999999% sure

It's really hard to tell for me, given the angles from which all the photos in question were taken. Are there variants of the 352's? The photos on Tierwelten show none of them with painted hooves, etc., so is the 352 sow really that? I think it is a 12207 sow next to it, but maybe someone can provide commentary on all of these... :)

Yes, you are right, the angle can make it difficult. But when the size, position of legs, - and esp the ears is right, it MUST be the same .
I have tried here to take pictures from the same ancle, but Straßbergers have taken the picture lower than I can. Also they take better photoes than I do. However let me try :

I think this is a very good discussion, because esp the sow no 352 is very rare, - or at lest it is very rarely recognised

Please let me know what you think .
And, yes, there must be others who can comment on this, please, please

Oh! I thought it was all the same pig in different stages of evolution towards the restaurant!
...and I think people in this forum love pigs, I have the last Schleich wild boar family, the Schleich warthog and the red river hog was one of the most voted in Mojo poll! I also have a very small plastic pig but I can't find it, maybe too many foxes in my boxes!

No, no, dear Crockbert, these are NOT for eating, - I am sure you will choke and have a very bad digestion

I can't give you any news about these Suzy, but i love the fact that you found them, great catches girl!

Thankyou Willy

The ultimate proof :

I was looking for the set which we can see in Gascher`s, and was thrilled whan Kristie would sell hers to me !
What I did not anticipate was, that this set is the much older one
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I could see that the little "sausage-pigs" were there , - they are extremely rare

Kristie, I owe you one. I owe you two, I owe you...WOW !!!!!

If I had something in my collection that YOU didn't have, then it must be rare! They are in good hands now. :)

-Kristie

Congratulations for your rare pigs!
Those figures that we know here that are for serious collectors!
Seriously, congratulations, not only because they are rare but mainly because they are from Kristie... a serious friend!

congrats very nice pigs
IHAVE ONE OF THEN BUT NOT ANY OF THESE

Thankyou, Roger and Alvaro
I got other gems also from Kristie, I will show them later

Yes, it is right ! The piggies are a true gem for me, and extra-extra precious becaus they come from Kristie

Kristie, you have MANY models that I do not have. Just think of all your gorgeous Breyers

Congrats Susanne
