Saarlooswolfhound's new additions *11/20 Thankful for great forum friends!*

More splendid additions:
The iguana seems perfect to me.

I am waiting for the arrival of the loris, from Germany ( Yvette ).

I like birds of prey ,too.

Wow, love the Stapelia(?) and fly, I've grown one species and am amused when the blowflies come clustering. I have a love for bad smelling flowers. I will have to look for one of these being sold individually.

Can you please share a closer pic of the little rodent?

Fabulous additions! The Colorata fossil fish are must have, I'm quite pleased with mine despite I would wish the bichir was smaller. The bearded vulture and bateleur eagle are my favourites from your very big new bacht.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] the plant is completely different from any Stapelia or relatives, it's the archifamous Rafflesia arnoldii, the biggest flower in the world (obviously the fly is enormously oversized for allow it to be seen). It follows the same evolutionary strategy tough. But Rafflesia is a tropical parasite that mankind never was able to cultivate ex-situ, not even the best botanical gardens in the world. I grew about 5 species of Stapelia and many other from related genus, but these plants are not happy with me, currently I only have the endangered Frerea indica, that apparently grows quite well since some years ago.

Thanks everyone! Andreas, I will try to snap a quick close up of the rodent tonight. The other plant has a gray version it appears.

Here you Andreas, finally!

Its designed to cling to the plant but struggles staying there

And now for my trades as of late.

First was a (purchase) package from StripedHyena! My colorata tuatara is no longer lonely.

A trade with Jill, the bear (flat black before) already transformed. And she was so kind to include the Battat little wolf for me! A much adored model.

The most horrifying fish I have ever seen.

(Mostly) Tiny horses! Breyer and Empire both, brought back so many childhood memories of playing with such toys on the pews in church.

An unopened bag of (rereleased?) WM snakes! Made of a stiffer plastic than my "originals".

New on the left and old on the right. Bottom corner turned models had no match from my existing models in my collection.

And lastly, she included a "puppy" repaint of my dog Buck. Photographed with my custom piece on the right, Kelly's on the left. Sooooo cute and she did a great job!

Wow, a really exciting set of parcels to unwrap, I bet!
The selection of birds is great, I like how with some of them you've got the same species in several typical poses, the flying pheasant is especially unusual and nicely done with all those feathers spread. And I enjoy seeing the snakes and their variations, it's these sets with small differences which make collecting so fascinating and addictive
But for favourite of the batch, it has to be Puppy-Buck

I LOVE the two Mini Whinnies, right hand side of the top shelf - both pintos in action poses. They're really great little sculpts for the size range, and the colours on them are excellent too.

Great lot of animals, i like the birds by NewRay.

Some real gems,congrats!!!!

Big congrats!! So many wonderful figures! Many I haven't seen before... I really love those geese, ducks, and pheasants

Super awesome packages! Absolutely love those AAA Dalmatians and all those snakes! And you can never have too many tiny horses, as a rule.  And what a perfect little custom of Buck, it looks so good!!

Can't wait to see what becomes of the bodies, and I am glad the little wolf has a home. :)

(Oh, also - that fish really IS horrifying, it's incredible)

Beautiful newcomers again

Absolutely gorgeous AAA dalmatians, wow! The largest is so wonderful, it captures everything about this breed's personality, active and athletic and with an expression that looks as though he is focused on a ball, about to be thrown! The corgi, GSD and retriever type dog are lovely too- the retriever almost reminds me of a liver flat coat with that outline, especially the chest! And of course puppy Buck is beautiful, Kelly is so talented and that must have definitely been the highlight of them all!

very nice

Thank you again everybody!

A fee more additions! My parents found a few additional old breyers, the paint and mustang are my favorites. :) I gor supremely lucky and found a razorback loach and now only miss one from the set. I found a Hunter Dan mule deer "Canyon King", the original safari longhorn, a few odds and ends from AAA and Mojo etc. As well as an elusive Funrise wolf with help from Forum Friends. Thank you!

Hope to update again soon!

What is the "yogi" humanoîd between the 2 fishes up please?

Wonderful newcomers. The Big country mule deer is also a newcomer in my zoo

Wow, your collection keeps growing!
The Breyers are beautiful and it was a joy to spot the goldendoodle too, I am sure he will love life in your amazing pack!

Oh, that mustang!! Great find! And so glad you gave that wolf a home. Also love the PV chameleon and the little frog.

Superb additions especially the Breyers and the Mule deer!

Alain, that is a sasquatch in a zen/yoga pose.:) Fun figure huh?

Congrats on the mule deer Andreas! Thank you Bonnie, Jill, and Taylor!

Thank you Paige! :)

After many more long days of work I finally got some packages delivered. :)

A few PV I have been missing, tree house kids, and a marvellous mixed lot with some some surprises like the AAA platypus baby.
