CONGRATULATIONS
Can't wait to see them

These figures are my first Yowies, there are 33 of them: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I got them all of eBay for the total of £12.46, which in my opinion is good value. When they arrived this morning they came in a gravy granules container which was rather odd, but were sealed in a zip lock bag.

good deal Adam!

Thank you kindly Alain

Great new additions. Quite a few Yowies represent species that are rarely made by other companies. Did you get many new species for your collection?

I got 16 new species including a splendid wren and a green Christmas beetle

That's pretty good. Yes, the wren is beautiful. Like you, I recently also collected some UK Yowies (but they were more expensive). I like the wren too.

What figures did you acquire Roger?, I'd love to know.

33 figures by 12£ is a miracle!!! You was very lucky for find this unique opportunity :)

Well, I was browsing after Rogerpgvg gave me a link to eBay and there were many silly prices like £17.50 for one figure. Then I stumbled upon this seller, and I took a look of what he had and bought the lot.

They are cute, not what I would collect but lovely anyway.

Thanks Ben, there are many unusual species here in figure form such as a marsupial mole and a snake necked turtle.

Great catch Adam :)

Thanks Andreas

Quite a few are the same as you have. I am particularly happy with the cassowary, as it looks good and is 1:32 scale. I haven't been able to enjoy them much yet, as I had to leave my house due to the corona virus lock down (long story). Once I go back, I may try to trade some, because I am trying to keep my collection within limits.

I would certainly be interested to add any Yowies I don't have to my collection as I am a tiny bit addicted on getting any Yowies I can, that I don't have already :)

Here are fourteen new figures that I purchased a few days prior: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Congratulations Adam :)

Thank you Andreas :)

Gosh, for some reason, I missed the yowies

What a fabulous deal you made , and so beautyful they are

And here we see the frog tube from Wild Republic

And the lovely, lovely dromeday

Thank you ever so much Susanne :)

Nice. The wombat seems to be scared by the big bunch of giant frogs. He seeked for protection under the only other mammal of the set, they were friends before the frogs arrived, because both are Schleich

Surprisingly the wombat came separate on Monday and the frog tube and camel on Tuesday.

Thank you for your kind words :)
