Hi Rogério

Will do and Timpo's labelling with their Farm Series shouldn't confuse anyone.

After all a dog is a dog - right?  

This could be a vintage 'Show us Your' Timpo Farm Series figures.

I thought it was half sheep half dog.
I enjoy the idea of topics dedicated to series. We're using it often and it is more discernible.

Thanks

Look forward to the pictures as I have some Timpo models so it will be interesting!

Hello,
I found some Timpo Farm Animals in my boxes.
It is alright that these animals are not marked?
I think I have some Mustang horses more.
Benno.

You even have the box, that is fantastic!

Chris, were the farm animals also made from the mid-1950s until the early 1970s, like the zoo animals? And were they always painted?

Hello,
I found some TIMPO-Figures more and I will added it to TAW.
What about the TIMPO Wild West-Figures, like the Corall-Horses?
Benno.

Wonderful. For series like Wild West, Circus or those without animals as the main focus, we use to list only the animals and mention it on its respective page.

Great to see the panda in such a rare good condition. Mine is in such a poor condition that I was too embarrassed to put it onto TAW.

I have quite a few of the horses!

Great! If you have any photos, I am happy to put them onto TAW.

Here are my horses!

Thank you! Are they from the farm series or the Western series? I am a bit confused, because Benno showed two different horses, but according to Chris's farm list, there should be only one. Unless one is a shire horse, but they don't look like shire horses.

Hello rogerpgvp,
I do not know enough of TIMPO Figures. I read something about TIMPO figures in internet, but I do not know if this informations are all true.
The Corall horses belong to the TIMPO Western Series. I do not know how many different horses exist.
I found this picture of TIMPO shire horses. This horses belong to TIMPO Farm Series.
Benno.

I think Benno is right and my horses are from the Western series as I had a lot of Timpo models when I was younger from many different series.

Here are a few more on my models-hoping they are all Timpo

Benno, are your shire horses marked? And are the farm animals you show above marked, Taylor? Perhaps that way we can tell for sure whether they are Timpo. My impression is that the horse with lifted leg is a bit different and may not be Timpo, but it's just a guess. It's also not in Smallscaleworld's catalogue here https://sts-forum.forumieren.de/t21706-two-old-england-models-from-timpo, although it is clear that at some point, Timpo made more farm animals than those shown in this catalogue.

Hello rogerpgvg,
the shire horses are not mine. I took the picture out of the internet.
On TAW I show the animals of Timpo also when possible with the marked side.
Benno

The gorilla and the giant panda clearly inspired the Singapore ones! :)

Yes, like Britains, Timpo was frequently copied. The Timpo farm animals aren't always marked, which makes it hard to determine whether they are real Timpos or Hong Kong/Singapore copies.

I have added the two pigs. The feeding pig looks similar in style to Bennos pig with piglets and it looks like the standing pig is in the photo below. Not sure about the ram. It looks similar to the one in the photo below, but it has a different colour and the plastic also seems different. The horse with lifted leg also seems to have a different, rougher style, so I'll leave it for now until someone can confirm they are indeed Timpos.

I also have these 3 cows-the black and white one looks like the one in the catalogue and is made of a rubbery plastic but the other 2 are harder plastic so I am assuming they are copies.
