When do the Major Brands Release Their New Figures and Retire Figures? Update!

As you may know I've only just discovered how wonderful the other brands are, and have 3 general questions relating to all of them- 1. Roughly what time of year do they first release their new figures 2. How long before they release them do we find out on the forum 3. Do they release in multiple parts (e.g. Schleich release new models in January and around summer) I would be so grateful if anyone could answer these questions for the following brands: Schleich (All I need to know here is how early we find out what they will release on the forum!), Papo, CollectA, Safari, Mojo and Bullyland. Thank you so much everyone!    

Safari is usually about now (October)

CollectA usually reveals a few figures for the first several Fridays in November

Papo and Mojo are usually December

I'm not sure about Bullyland.

2020 is an atypical year. We may have some delays due to the pandemy but things won't surely be far from what Halich said. We are all impatient..

Very good point, companies might not adhere to typical schedules this year!

Yes, Halich gave the right information.
But as Roger said, this is year everything is different and we have to be prepared for changes.
For example Papo still have many models from this year, still not ready to be on the market...

Thank you so much Halich this is so useful! And I agree I'm sure there will be delays! Papo still have not released everything on the market?? Do we know what these figures are? Or were they announced but have not yet been produced?

The figures are the following: Standing tiger cub, grasshopper, snail, dragonfly, monarch butterfly, ladybird and a honey bee

All are on my wishlist and I really hope they can be made as Papo are venturing far into insect territory and this will be great in the long run, due to all the insect species out there!

Oh that explains why when I ordered the standing tiger cub they said it wasn't in stock until January! Thanks for this Adam!

This is just an update to this topic, and as always I would be so happy if anyone can help!
Is there somewhere which tells you when figures from major brands retire? I know that MiniZoo often say 'retired' on their webiste, and Animal Kingdoms, have a blog where they tell you the retiring Schelich and Papo, but is there somewhere where you can find the retiring CollectA/ Bullyland/ Mojo/ Safari figures for each year?
Sorry for so many questions, collecting all these other wonderful brands is a new world for me!

I only use Animal Kingdoms

Yes it seems good- but it only seems to announce retiring Papo and Schleich, and not other brands So my main question was for the other brands, if anyone knows!
