Beautiful models, I love that Red Kite with its impressive wingspan! Very Happy

That lemon shark is so realistic too! Very Happy

Congratulations for your new figures. Especially the re-release of the red kite, it is still a very interesting model and it is not easy to find this species replicated. That's also now my puma but we still need a better one. The lemon shark is under my cogitations if I ever decide to collect sharks. :)

Thank you, everyone.

@Andreas: I'm also waiting for the macaw and the frogs.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]: I think it's the best Puma on the market, but you are right, we need a Puma on a new level. Very Happy

Today, I've found the Huacaya Alpaka from Papo in the Erfurt Zoo. So, I replaced my old Schleich one with this very well made model:

What a beautiful Alpaca, I love that texture, it looks just like real wool! Very Happy

Subject: Re: Megaptera's Collection Mon Jun 14, 2021 11:56 am

It seems you enjoy best the alpaca from the Erfurt Zoo than the alpaca of the Schwäbisch Gmünd "zoo". Laughing

That's a great figure and I will remember to check it locally to see if I follow the same steps.

I held out buying an alpaca until this one was released; it's my favorite, too.

Subject: Re: Megaptera's Collection Mon Jun 14, 2021 4:48 pm

A very charming fellow. Big congrats!

It really was a perfect day. And also the Alpaca is perfect. It has much more details than the Schleich one.

My newest addition: The Papo Common green grasshopper. Thanks to Blaine, I found a proper species for this model cheers

I only think Papo should put these insects at a lower price level. I really like them but I can find for free some ultra realistic unbranded ones. Laughing

I'm a bit stranged about that sentence, Roger. Usually, "ultra-realistic" is the contrary of "unbranded" in figurine world... to the exent that we developed the word "chinamal" (and "chinasaur" for prehistoric collectors) for those low quality unbranded toys found in any bazaar or supermarket....

Well, I find grasshoppers easily since my childhood and they are all unbranded. At least I can't see anything marked in their bellies. They look ultra realistic to me although it is not that easy to catch them because they leap a lot. Laughing
