| These are lovely models, I love the style of vintage animals! They're so delicate, whilst still keeping all the details! |

| is this not a Manruba Doomplast? eland ? I shall have have to check them on wiki. edit* I checked but couldn't find an eland, only a waterbuck. Somehow your model looks so familiar though. http://toyanimal.mywikis.net/wiki/Manurba_Waterbuck_Walking And that blue crane? is just absolutely beautiful, I love it ! It's so exciting to see such wonderful pieces, well done Taylor. - Taos wrote:

These Hong Kong moulds were used as premium figures in many ways. The elands seems to be like the Prior model https://toyanimal.info/wiki/Prior_Eland_1 |

| Hello, I found a little bit bigger Eland, but this Eland are not marked. And there are more Elands smaller and with other colour and marked with "HONGKONG" and "CHINA". Benno. |

| This eland presentation shows clearly how ambitious is to try to document all different figures ever produced. Just checking your collection, it is almost unbelievable the amount of similar figures. Actually, those are variations around the same design. One of them even in an official Portuguese territory as it was Macau until 1999. I find it very interesting that they use the Portuguese words instead of Made in Macau. |
