Would you be willing to take individual photos of your naturalism figures, especially these sea creatures that I think are unique, for TAW? And do you have information on what series and species they are?

Just learned about these...can someone tell me more about them?

Thank you!

Andreas, how long are the vaquita and Chinese river dolphin (tip of nose to centre of tail)? I know you took photos with a Lego block, but I can't quite work out their exact length.

Who is Maria? Perhaps we could contact her for more information.

They are indeed magnificient.

I will ask her. She IS a silent member Herr. I will answer the other questions soon.

Hello everyone,
The brand in Chinese can be searched by this combination of Chinese symbols/letters: 博物小馆 (in English: Naturalism, or more precisely, Natural History Small Museum or something like that :). I could not find an official website with their complete product line except for a blog page on Weibo with 1.8M followers where they publish new media content and articles, and their official TaoBao store. Apart from the Natural History Magazine China and other related printed materials, they sell mainly plush models, memorabilia, badges, and some paper animal models. I think they have about a dozen PVC animal series, most of them were presented in the STS forum topic mentioned above by Roger. Who is the actual maker of the models I cannot say, they might work with some Chinese studio but the models are released as their brand, and, actually, can hardly be found in other Chinese no-brand shops.

Anyway, the Taobao store is a good place to go through the available stuff. I usually use Chrome web browser with TaoBao as it has a very good integrated translation functionality.

By the way, these are their latest PVC release: Megamouth Sharks - adult and juvenile version, but they are unusually expensive compared to the owl and eagles series items - price is about 36 Euro per model:

One more thing - there is no option for direct international purchase from TaoBao (or, at least I haven't found one yet), you should use a shopping agent or forwarding services from a Chinese address. In other posts, some members have mentioned Yoybuy - I highly recommend them as I have been using those for years and almost without trouble. If anyone needs help/advise, send me a pm, or we could combine orders, etc.

Not much of a help really, but that is all I actually know about Naturalism.

Thank you very much, Maria. I am going to look into this!

Thank you Maria. A very beautieful shark.

Andreas, would you mind checking what the length of the Chinese river dolphin and vaquita is?

Shame that the megamouth is so expensive. Hopefully the price comes down. They haven't sold any from the Taobao website yet.

Here are the product pictures with model size information. They are small (and cute), sold in little paper boxes.
