| Here are the pets tube models. I do not have the packaging anymore but I can check the store I bought mine at next time I travel there.

| Thanks for your always great pictures Paige! I added them on TAW! Some I still need to check if they match a species, ff.i. the parakeet, turtle, and snake. Anyone knows? I also don't know which type of goldfish is it? A comet perhaps? Their design is reminiscent of their plushes, very cute actually. |

The turtle might be a box turtle of some kind since they are popular in terraria, and for the same reason the snake might be a corn snake. |

| The little snake definitely looks like it's supposed to be a corn snake. It's SO cute!!
The turtle is awfully vague. It looks tortoise-y to me, but not striking me as a specific species. |

| I would label this goldfish a ryukin. It has the short fat body and doubled caudal fin typical of the breed. A comet has a long 'normal' body and single caudal fin.
NandO, the size is roughly comparable to Safari toob figures, maybe just a tad larger. I had the toob, but only kept the goldfish.
Jill, if you like the toob, check JoAnns fabrics and craft store. |

| The missing rabbit and updated group photo are now there. :) Thanks everyone! Nando, I would say they are a bit larger than average safari toob models. I don't have comparable toob models for all but here are some Safari toob and old Schleich for comparison.

| Revisiting this topic, I think we could assume the corn snake as a definitive identification. however, isn't the turtle a better match for a Greek tortoise instead of a box turtle? Greek tortoises are rather popular as pets too. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] How about NOT putting a species name on anything this vague, to avoid going down the usual TAI rabbithole of misunderstandings and misidentifications. |

| I agree, this is nothing else than a plastic tortoise, it could be a lot of species or none. Nevertheless, it's no more likely to be a box turtle than a greek turtle. |

| Thanks, I moved it to generic tortoise but I am quite convinced their idea was to represent a Greek tortoise, probably the Moroccan Greek tortoise, a baby below. Those dark edges are not common in Hermann's tortoises and Russian tortoises often show ligther, not darker edges. The carapace shape is more domed like the Greek tortoise than the common box turtle, at least is what I see. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |
