Back in CCCP: A blue savannah and other rubber animals

Yes, the palm is a sign that this is the work of this particular author.  He collaborated with various factories, but the "palm" is only on some of the figures.  In "Africa" ​​- on each.  On the soldiers "Riders of 1812" - on some series.  In the "zoos" (flat figures) of different factories on an elk or a lion.

"Afrika" and "Hunting Dogs" are made at the "Kid" factory (Moscow).  The sign "bear" can only be seen on the labels for these sets.  In different years it was "bear" and "fox".  There are hallmarks on the figurines "7 kopecks."  (the price of the figurine is 7 kopecks, that is, 0.07 * ruble; ice cream cost 20 kopecks, that is, either one ice cream or three toys).
Bear:

Thank you so much Felicata  for sharing your knowledge about your vountry productions. I hope you will share more with us 

So I can enter the set under "Kid" factory (Moscow) on TAW ? 

Bear


Fox

Could you show more about these animals ?

The name of the plant "Kid" - "Малыш" (Malysh)

7k is also visible in the pictures. This is the price. If these figures are also interested, I can tell you a lot about them. Below are three elephants: the brand "fox", "bear" and no brand, only the price.

It depends how you want to 'Anglicise' (Romanise?!) it Kikimalou;

Malysh (Малыш, English; 'kid') also known as Moskovskiy zavod plastmassovykh igrushek  (МЗПИ  - MZPI).

Thanks! All right.

Fox, bear, no.
I, unfortunately, do not have all the options (and some of the damage), but I can share photos of all the figures one by one.

Thank you both 

It would be great if you could share pics of every models with something to compare size like a Lego. Russian production isn't well known on STS and TAW and it is a pity !

The birds are very interesting

Hippos.  Different eyes, nostrils.






And this is "Mir" ("Mир", the city of Minsk or a branch in the city of Mogilev).  The sign is a man.  The lamb is missing in the picture, I'll show it later.



I'll try to reshoot with something.  There is no Lego, if I only ask my friends.  I can put a line.  Matches, lighter?  If the photo is with bumps, but they are all different sizes

Ducks?  The figurine from my childhood (blue) had one girl bit off her beak.  I tried to pull it out with pliers, it didn't work.  Now I'm looking for the same one, but so far I haven't found a few others.

Thank you

Sorry Felicata, I must have been typing as you were typing!

I use an online translator for, sorry, I didn't think I needed to write a transcription. Thank you for adding it. To accurately describe the activities of factories and years of production, I think we will have to ask for help from our other collectors (I will ask them). I don't have much information that I'm sure of. More sets to show?

"Mir"

"Moose Family", 1987, "Malysh", author B. D. Savelyev

"Ox", 1987, "Malysh", author B. D. Savelyev, price 20 kopecks. My yellow ox has no horns.
 The rhinoceros from the "Africa" ​​set resembles the Lineol rhinoceros, and the ox looks like the female Britains buffalo.

"Animal figurines" (Horoscope/Oriental calendar).  "Malysh".  Author B. D. Savelyev, late 80s - early 90s.  12 figures, each corresponds to the sign of the Eastern calendar.
photos from private collections and from the book
price 1 ruble 10 kopecks



Big monkey - also "Malysh", molded rubber, was sold separately.

"Farm" ("Skotnyi dvor"), "Malysh", Moscow, 80s.


In these photos on the figurines, there are remains of threads, rings and plasticine, now I have already cleaned them.

Yellow donkey made of very soft rubber.  The city of Kirov (Vyatka), possibly the 90s.  Most likely, the set was not produced completely (5 figures)

Thank you for sharing all these unknown models!

Thank you so much. These old figures are wonderful. My favorite is the little monkey

Wow, I am so glad that you gave all this information and photos to us, Felicata
It is all very interesting , I love these russian , animal models. I always like the russian style and I am very happy to know now, that I have some models from Savelyev's hands :)
Thank you very much !

I am glad that the information about these figurines turned out to be interesting.  I'll show you a little more.

There were very few realistic figurines of monkeys; they were more often produced based on images from children's fairy tales or cartoon films.

I, and many others, learned about the true scope of Saveliev's work relatively recently.  I had his name written on only one set of flat figures (but I didn’t have all of them), I saw the “palm”, but did not know what it meant.  I can also show flat ones, just tell me in which topic.
