As some of you may know, I can't resist a model of a donkey, and I was very exited when two big brands were launching pernet-and-foal this year
But then the air sort of went out of the balloon when Corona put the production of new models almost to a halt However, that does not ( completely) stop a collector
I saw they were for sale in Australia, and ordered them there in late April Shortly after, the seller let me know that the Australian mail had announced that it could take as much as 60 week days for parcels to arrive in Europe Well, nothing I could do about it, and it is silly to worry about things if you can't change it
But "already" the 18th of June, they arrived here, - and they surely were worth waiting for
Here are some photos. I hope you like my new darlings also
A few pictures of the adult
The cutest baby ever
Tiny baby hooves
Compared to the previous Mojo Donkey
Compared to some of the Schleich donkeys
And compared to some of the Papo donkeys
I hope that soon we can see a comparison with the new Papo donkeys

We surely know how much you love donkeys. I love them also! It is remarkable all the effort you did to get these wonderful models but they surely deserve all effort. I really love them but as I said before, I only wished Anna or Mojö could assign them to a specific breed. New era of farm toys requires figures made to the breed level. Though, they are so wonderful that it is obviously just a little detail. I will obviously link the TAW entries about these models to yours and Paige's topics.
Now I should never have joined this forum! More than one review of any figure has now made me put it on my wishlist and my domestic animal wishlist has 345 figures and counting and my wildlife & sea life wishlist has 943 and counting! Forums are dangerous places with regards of adding to your collection!!! Sorry due to it being off topic but only last year I thought "ahh finally, I can stop adding to my collection except for when they release new figures" OH NO! I have discovered the TAI, the STS forum WHAT DO I DO? Their are so many figures and brands and every day it seems I am adding to my wishlist.
Lovely donkeys Susanne, and nice comparisons too

You all saw me, showing walk arounds of the new Mojo models, like crazy .. But, for two models, I didn`t make photos , not because I don`t like them .. no, no, they are my favorite of the bunch :) But because I know, that we have a special person for this job ... and I can`t take the pleasure from Susanne, to present these so wonderful donkeys to us And again, Susanne did it in a perfect way. Thank you for this Susanne Thank you Anna for making these beautiful models. And ... my wallet ... also want to ''thank'' Susanne and STS , .. for making me a Donkey collector too ..

I'm happy to hear that you like them, Susanne! I like seeing the photos, it's the first time I see the final product, I've only seen the official pictures so far, and the prototypes of course Thank you for sharing!
Wow, 60 days is a lot of waiting...
