Dear collectors,
As Christmas is coming I came back to my village, where I was born and where I keep the most part of my collection. Yesterday I was trying to catalogue all my old models, not part of my current displayed collection, and found two identical Schleich toucans (the old retired version).

Hope you like it.
Bests,
Antonio

Such a wonderful repaint! sunny cheers Applause Very Happy
I know what you mean about models looking worse in photos... I always find this! But yours looks so amazing and such a good idea to change it to a new species!

A nice repaint and a wonderful specie. I hope that a brand will release that specie too.
