Bonnie's Collection- Final Update Wolves!

I thought now was the right time to start sharing my collection with everyone!   With so many experts on animal figures on STS, I am sure all my questions will be answered! And if you need any photos for the wiki, please say! As I said in my introduction, I collected all animals for a long time (So these outnumber my dogs at the moment!), but now I only collect dogs because otherwise there would be too many amazing figures to choose from (And I adore dogs!) When I first discovered Toy Animal Wiki, I made very long wish lists for all the brands, but now I think I'll have to narrow them down to my absolute favourite animals, whilst still keeping all the dogs!
There are a whole range of brands in my collection, mostly Schleich as this is all I knew about until now, and the animals range from realistic to quite basic! I am thinking of saving the dogs until last and taking photos roughly by species, but if there are lots of that species I might separate them into brand/ breed.
I'll start with the elephants- displayed on my green dog pillow !
There are 3 Schleich, 1 Safari, 1 Animal Hospital, 2 Wing Crown I think and 2 K&M?

Excellent group so far. Can't wait to see more.

Thank you Paige!
I am hoping to do about 1 per day, but I'll see how it goes!

Nice elephants!

Thank you Taos!

I have been waiting for this from you

Wonderful elephants, - the Schleich baby it the most adorable baby elephant ever made, - in my opinion
Wing Crown, - I think I do not know that brand

The two little twind in the group to the right are enormously charming ...they look kind of vintage

Thank you Susanne!
I definitely agree- the Schleich baby elephant is just so sweet and realistic at the same time!
And I think Wing Crown make quite a few cheap plastic animals, but I thought the mold on these elephants were quite good so they joined the collection!
Those twins do look vintage! I checked on TAI and it said they were K&M from the year 2000- so quite old now!

You have nice elephants.. especially, the baby elephants.

Thank you so much Fernando!

Wonderful start of showing your collection Bonnie
And I really like your dog pillow
For sure you have nice dreams on it

Thank you Kosta!
And yes the pillow is definitely a favourite of mine!

It is really a good idea that you start a topic for your collection. If you want, you can open a different topic for your dogs once it is a special part of your collection.  
There is no problem that you put consecutive posts but you can always edit your posts to add something you forgot. Just click in a button like this one [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] that you can find on the top right of each post next to a cross.
Can you find easily Wing Crown? I need their crazy fox, maybe we can performe a trade or so if you find it easily.

Thank you Bonnie for sharing your collection! :) My african elephant is also from Schleich but the previous model..

Thank you Roger and definitely a good idea to open a different topic for my dogs, considering this is the only species I'll be adding to my collection from now on! Oh yes and I've just noticed the Edit button, will use this in future!
I would love to trade the Wing Crown fox, there are a few Wing Crowns near me but I'm not sure whether I've seen a fox... Do you have a photo so that I could keep an eye out for it?
And thank you Caracal , I do think that Schleich's elephants are actually very good compared to some of their other models!

That's the only picture I have of the Wing Crown fox. It is really hard to see.

Thank you and I'll keep a look out for it!

The next lot is something a bit different... fantastical creatures! There is a whole range here, mostly Schleich Eldrador- some of them are rather frightening but I got them because there was something I liked about them- I think it was the imagination in creating them! Then there are some rather strange unicorns, some Schleich Smurfs, rubber dragons and funny little plastic creatures- so a whole mixture! I particularly like the lava lion and that ice griffon- they came out bigger than I expected and are beautifully made. I do think that Schleich's Eldrador creatures are actually very well made, as strange as they are! I have a few more of these small weird plastic creatures somewhere, but since they aren't what most people collect I haven't added these ones in. But a bit of fun anyway !
Not what most people here collect but I thought I'd share anyway!

And to go with them my varied collection of dinosaurs, I am no expert with dinosaurs but I'll try and tell you the brands! So there are 4 from Schleich, quite a few from Wing Crown, a couple by Timpo, and then the rest are unknown to me. But any questions please ask and I'll try my best to give you more details! And sorry for the strange lighting in the photo!

Lovely models again. I love the water dragon from schleich, glad I got one before it was retired.

Thank you Paige ! I definitely agree, it is a beautiful model.

Some people on forum really love fantasy models. Not only Paige, Valérie, Anna Aschuck or Kelly are just a few examples. That's not my subject but I assume some pieces are really beautiful. Especially dragons and I assume I loved the Game of Thrones although I don't collect any of their merchandising.
I have a request. When you have time, could you please open a topic with individual pictures of your Wing Crown models. It could be useful twice. First, because the forum is poorly documented about these models and second because I could use your pictures to put on Toy Animal Wiki. No hurries, in any way. :)

Thank you Roger ! Oh yes I would love to help with the fantastic Toy Animal Wiki! Where would you like me to open the topic and I can hopefully do it tomorrow?

Do it just when you find it oportune for you.
You can open the topic on "Unclassified modern companies". It is where we put all topics of modern companies that do not have their own section on forum.

Hah, I'm a happy owner to that model also! Schleich really does some of the fantasy stuff very well, though I don't collect the Bayala or Eldrador lines specifically they do have some wonderfully imaginative and fun figures. I would have treasured them if they were around when I was a kid.

There are a few of us here who collect at least some fantasy figures, more or less seriously. My main collection is a line af fantasy art statuary.

You have some fun things- I remember that weird thing by the lava lion's foot! Think it was from Dungeons and Dragons.
