- Exmoor pony wild type (stallion, mare, foal)
- Przewalski's horse (stallion, mare, foal)
- Yakutian horse
- Ardennais

Eldrador:
- Ice boar
- lava stegosaurus
- Rock horse
- jungle stag

More worlds: Underground world, Sky world, Ghost world, Metal world

Bayala:
- Winged lioness
- New fantasy creatures (for example winged wolf or winged ape)
- MALE mermaids
- Metal unicorn
- Dragotaur (upper body human, lower body dragon)
- Centaurs with lion body
- Faun

Dinosaurs/Prehistoric
- Neanderthal family
- Prionosuchus

Wild Life:

Yes to the Sorraia mare and foal! Love my stallion, even if he did turn into a custom so I could put a saddle in the correct place. I'd love for a new Friesian stallion and foal too.

And we definitely need a lioness to go with his pink, winged majesty and cubs.

Otherwise:
-caracal
-more unicorns and/or pegasus with dark coloring
-boy articulated riders!!

All I wish is more realistic sculpts.

Any dogs!
Schleich's cute style works better on puppies, so maybe they could think about a few models for their latest adult dogs- a Border Collie pup would be really sweet! And they did the Poodle's sculpt this year very nicely, so maybe they could be the first brand to bring in crossbreeds like cockerpoos! Or, although I doubt they will, two unusual curly coated breeds that I love: the Lagotto Romagnolo/ Curly Coated Retriever!
I'd also love them to make another Rough Collie, this is one of the breeds they haven't yet made again and their first model was one of their earliest- but I'm not sure whether they would make a better version than this! They seem to be making newer models of lots of their earlier ones- like the Cocker Spaniel , Jack Russell and Poodle recently so maybe we'll be lucky to see models of the breeds they haven't yet remade like an Irish Setter, Basset Hound or Old English Sheepdog!

(I agree, although I do like many of the new horses.)

I think many of us wish for a refocus on wildlife and domestics with a serious attitude (less floof and bows and more detail and proportional sculpts). 

I have said for some time now that their new cutesy style could have advantages if it were applied correctly. We could get some great rare species like the quokka a few years ago if they thought of rarer naturally "cute" animals. Lots of mammals could work (some monkey species, small mustelids, small african cats etc.). But (for me) this style doesn't work for many groups of animals. Their turkey has a filter quality to it in my opinion... Domestics there are lots of dogs that would work in their style... but I am getting a little tired of the forced cuteness and the total disregard for proportions in their popular ranges... anyhow, best of luck for this brand.

I would love to see new bird models:

- Black Stork (all Schleich storks so far were really nice)
- Blue-footed Booby
- Barn Owl
- any species of Woodpecker
- Southern Ground Hornbill

*but definitely not in the style of the latest Griffon Vulture with his enormous legs

I suppose I hope they'll move away from emulating Jurassic World with their prehistoric line. The last thing the world needs is more JW style merchandise.

Amen to that

I would like (apart from the usual "nice sculpt /nice paint" ):

Horses: no breeds in particular but horses we nice poses (like an angry horse with open mouth and backward ears, one rearing, one scraching it's back or leg, a mare in foal...) but I can dream.
Farm life: a mule! Highland cow and calf. Different breeds of sheeps and goats.
Pets: a sphynx cat! Maybe a Birman and an Abyssinian too. A ferret would be cool too.
Wild animals: sea otter, ermine, stoat, wild cat, spotted deer, serval, caracal, maned wolf, barn owl
Bayala: a traditional goat-like unicorn, a kirin, the return of the shadow elves. A herd of centaurs!
Eldrador: I'm a horse girl so any elemental horse would be fine. Maybe a new world with thunder and lightning bolts (with rapid animals, cheetah, horse, ostrich...) ?
Dinosaurs: some babies could be nice?

Dear Sts friends:

Well, I saw this topic, and I couldn't resist. I must put something here, even if it's just an opinion. Well, here goes:

So far, based off of others' ideas, centaurs and a faun for bayala are seconded. Not sure about eldrador, though. Those I'd have to see in hand before considering buying them, although exploring new worlds for eldrador _is an interesting idea. These days, I don't care much for the horses, since I've stopped collecting them, but anyway ... going on.

I do think that Bayala needs more standing elves, more mermaids, less unicorns, and more other things. It's hard for me to tell what exactly, but you get the point right? Now, if they made a winged lion family, that would be great. Also, the idea of exploring metal worlds sounds interesting. As "for wildlife, I second the motion for any more birds, the flying squirrel, and I don't know what else. Let's see, an angora rabbit maybe? Well, we'll have to see. Also, has anyone considered gemstone worlds as a possible range? For eldrador or bayala, I mean.

Aschuck.

I second this.

Better sculpting, better paintjobs and more care!

Dear Tupolew 2 154,

Hey, was that you who wrote about the metal world for eldrador? If so, that's a great idea! As a result, I've created, in one of my documents, a creature which I call a brass rat. It's basically a rat whose fur is all shiny like brass. Anyway, I digress. Oh yeah, and here's another idea for eldrador: Crystal world. This world, if explored by Schleich, could really make some neat creatures, for example, a crystal snake, a sapphire horse, and ruby stag. These are just some examples. For that matter, they could extend the gemstone theme to Bayala if they wanted to. At this point, these ideas we're coming up with probably won't get made, but you know, Schleich always has another trick up their sleeve. Anyway, no matter how much we speculate about what they're doing, these wishlists are still fun, at least for me.

Yes, i want a metal world, where the creatures are like mechanic (like the mechanical dragon from plastoy) or shiny liquid metal. Crystal world sounds also nice.

Before i forget, two more wishes:

- Roe Deer
- European Wildcat

Since i Gave all of my Schleich animal figures to a Friend (Who no longer is a Friend ) I mainly focus on there Dinosaurs, and the One thing i want them to make is a n Ornithopod like the Parasaurolophus they Retired back in 2015.

Since then they never released one new Ornithopod and when i tried to message them with suggestions, on such species, they went totally ignored.  I have 36 Dinosaurs from the 2016 Line up, and not one of them is a Ornithopod.  



However they have A Couple of Stegosaurs

A Nodosaur
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


And some Sauropods
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

and even a few Obcuritys
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]


You can Check out my Collection thread [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] and see that not one Ornithopod has been made since 2016 by this company. and that is the one thing i want them to change.  Now the only thing that will irk me though is if they make said ornithopod EXCLUSIVE to a playset.

I want more stegosaurs:
- Miaragaia
- Dacentrurus
- Dravidosaurus

More wishes:

Season unicorns (adult ones, not foals)
- Spring unicorn
- Summer unicorn
- Autumn unicorn
- Winter unicorn

Weather unicorns (also adult and not foals)
- Sunny unicorn
- Rainy unicorn
- Snow unicorn
- Thunder unicorn
- Storm unicorn

I love the idea for those unicorns. I'd also love some of them to be pegasus too.

as a wildlife collector id love a coati, woolly monkey serval, caracal, capuchin monkey, crowned pidgeon, gelada monkey male, mangoose, sifaka, lori's, aye aye, kookaburra, gilamonster

I want different breeds of lifestock. Different breeds of farm animals and it does not matter which ones, just more realistic then the latest ones.

- Indians
- Romans
- Stone age people
- A black riding boy (brother from Sarah?^^)
- Small children/toddler
- A new plane for wildlife

We desperately need some boy riders. My barn is very lopsided with so many girl riders.

Hi Guys,

Hey, I was just looking at my fictional creatures document, and it occurred to me that Schleich really should make a stained glass world for eldrador. The animals and people of this world would be made out of transparent PVC, kind of like the unicorn ice sculpture. Anyway, what do you think? Also, the crystal world would be based on the, same principle as the stained glass one, only the animals presented would be more faceted in appearance, sort of like Safari's crystal cavern dragon. Anyway, if anyone thinks this stained glass idea is good, then let me know.

We need more donkeys and goats, wild and farm animals.
