Coral species? 3/14/24

Apparently there were two versions of the Cynognathus that came in the set: the PV-marked version and a different one that was not made by PV but Mech.

The Cynognathus is Play Visions, you'll find that it's a bit larger than the Panini version (and the reddish markings are a giveaway). The PV dinosaurs all lack the logo, in my experience. The Parasaurolophus with the stripes is a Jurassic Park III miniature from Hasbro. A couple of these might be miniature Imperials.

Thank you halichoeres! I thought I remembered the dinos didn't have the PV logo stamp but didn't trust my owm memory. Thanks for the additional info also!

The funny Godzilla looking guy on the top sure looks like a miniature of the Imperial T-rex. That compsognathus is really nice, the parasaurolophus is good also.

Man, missed your comment Kelly. Thanks for the info!

A few random things I found recently. No stamps or letters or anything. Any ideas?

I'll give my best shot at the GORGEOUS dogs!!
I have the collie and mine is just marked Hong Kong so I'm guessing it is one of those vintage figures from there which probably came in a farm set! I think the Pekingese is part of the Shing Hing pencil topper series!
I've never seen that beautiful Akita though, wow! I feel as though it could have been part of some sort of children's set looking at the collar and smiling expression, and she has a similar style to Waiphoon/ Wig Crown dogs so maybe one of these Chinese brands- I love her though, great finds!

The whole pencil topper set is available on Amazon, as are the cats. I have them in my cart. I'm glad Bonnie knows who made them!

Thanks for the info! This pekingnese doesn't have a pencil topper hole though...

That's interesting! Maybe it is just a copy of the one in this set?

Another batch! The little horses on the bottom are all marked 1996 Empire China (except the foal but it seems the same). The pony is marked Jasman China. The bison RAE 1972 and the GSD is unmarked. Any further info on amy of these? And they will lolely be up for sale/trade so if anyone is interested please PM me.

The Empire horses are the miniature Grand Champions. I have the gray Arabian on the left, but you can easily find their specific IDs! No idea on the others, but they are cool. :) The GSD looks familiar but not in a helpful way.

Thanks Jill! The GSD reminds me of a Rin Tin Tin type action figure...

Aww, the shepherd is cute! Jill beat me to the mini Grand Champions, my daughter had a bunch with her Mini Whinnies. I remember the sorta-bay Morgan I think it was on the far right.

I think your GSD seems to have the same mould as this one, but I'm not sure whether he would have been part of the same set! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Yes, it looks the same mould and TAW reads
"The dog's name is Order, he came in a set with a figure named Law, thus Law & Order"
If Paige's belongs to the same set, it must be the Disorder version.

I wondered if it was a GI Joe... but it is different from the wolves that I have. Order definitely looks like he ready to incur some disorder.

Thank you everyone for the help!

Spaniels! No idea on the brands however. The vintage ones in back are stamped merely "made on Hong Kong" and the twin lying down adults are stamped 2000 M. M. T. L. CHINA, and pup only china but clearly belongs to the same set.

The two in the back are especially nice, the one on the right could make a lovely Flynn maybe.

Thanks Kelly.

Another example for good looking unknown chinese figures

Very exciting!
Wow, such lovely spaniels! That family is so sweet with the little pup, and the fur looks so silky on the adults! Those Hong Kong models are wonderful too, again the fur has been really nicely done and overall proportions are very spanielly! I've never seen these dogs before so I'm sorry I can't help more- but I've saved an image of them in case!

I think M.M.T.L. stands for Moose Mountain Toymakers Ltd.
It is a Hong Kong based company that was acquired (in 2011?)) by JAKKS Pacific, Inc.
The USA company is known among us because of the Discovery Kids Scanopedia line.
Moose Mountain also produced horses and surprisingly, among them, there is a Lusitano!

Superb looking spaniels!!Congrats!

Thank you Bonnie and Taylor!

Roger, thank you enormously as well! I swear you know all the things about these obscure brands.
