Added a few more Play Visions as well! Missed a wolverine by a nose, but did get a ferret. I did not expect the snakes to be this big, honestly! I have one from the regional sets, a bo constrictor, and it is so much smaller than these. I don't know how they will display in my tiny little plastic shelves, haha.

so many wonderful additions! I think this little handsome ferret is my favourite though |

| Thank you everyone!! Now we are building shelves for my Funrise animals since they are too large to share space with the little guys. - rogerpgvg wrote:
- Lots of very interesting additions. The Safari Authentics have real character. Yes, they look a bit deranged, but that makes them so special.
Absolutely, haha! I have close ups of some of their faces saved on my desktop. - Roger wrote:

That is probably a good way to put it. It's a good thing I was a kid when the toys that appeal to me were popular. - Quote :
- I mean those small series with a limited number of releases.
That's a succinct way to describe my collection, and very accurate. Small completable sets! - Quote :
- I think that is the best Afghan model I have ever seen , even if the paintwork is a bit "artistic"
I agree, I have seen it before but didn't get it and this time I just finally had to. Definitely my favorite that I have seen! |

And I really love the Kid Core Afghan, wow! Kid Core dogs are among my favourites, it is such a shame that they are so hard to find now- interestingly the Afghan and the Dalmatian seem to be the models I have seen the most from this brand, maybe because they sold the most- but I can see why, it's beautiful! I agree, I have seen them the most, too! There is a scottie and some labs on ebay right now as well. - Quote :
- but with exams on the horizon I'll just say that they really are such wonderful finds!
Oh best of luck!! Sounds like you're in the middle of a lot of work. I'm sure you'll do wonderfully. Your comment has reminded me that I forgot a very important March additions - my teeny tiny celluloid dogs! The tiniest I have found yet!

| Thank you so much! And wow, such delightful teeny tiny celluloid dogs! They look minuscule next to the small tube dogs so I can only imagine how small they must be in real life! But still completely wonderful and recognisable as their respective breeds! |

| A mid-month update, because I've been working on shelving space after getting a large lot of Yowies from Paige, and I got all of them sorted into their series and up on display! Not all of them here came from her, but a whole lot of them did! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| I absolutely adore those small acrylic shelves, they are PERFECT for yowies I bet they would work really well with Safari TOOB figures as well. They all look so great together _________________ Jolie

They all look so great together They do! They work really well for pretty much all the tube sized animals (though some figures are too long to fit facing forward). |

| Really nice, these smaller sizes can easily get obscured or cluttered when using normal bookcase or cabinet style shelving, cos whichever are behind will always be more difficult to see than the front row, so having these shallow close-to-the-wall shelves which fit figures just one row deep is perfect! |

| I missed the pictures of the tiny doggies They are wonderful And those shelves ! I have some of them, but seing all of these together is like free hands in a candy-store The USA yowies was something I did not see comming , and it irritates me green and yellow that shipping has become so expensive, and the Danish import customs have gone bananas To me, scale means nothing at all ! I adore yowies, EIKOH, Toobs ( when the paintwork is ok ) and the hundreds of others like margrine-models etc |
