Saarlooswolfhound's new additions *10/31 Prior fish and more!*

Wonderful new models Paige
What about this very nice Border Collie ? I can`t recognize it

Kiki, I will be happy to provide a walkaround soon! Should I wait until I can compare it to my other bats though?

Thank you Kosta! The collie is a Kid Kore adult dog model. They released a series of puppies with adults.

Wonderful additions,congrats!!!

Very nice models, I like the mosasaurus, and AAA figures.

Congratulations

Ah yes, Kid Kore . Thank you Paige :)

So many wonderful additions! And what an amazing trade with the wonderful Lydia too! I absolutely adore both dogs, especially the Kid Core border collie- such a beautiful model and so rare too!

Thank you everyone!

These aren't exactly "new additions" properly, but I was so stoked to even find these in a thrift store! I found an original tube of the K&M birds of prey (only missing the bataleur sadly), but even with the original information card! Given that this is a set from 20 years ago, only missing the original lid and (the most interesting) one of the models, I thought that this was a pretty great find.

Hmm, if it's the most interesting/unusual figure which is missing, and they're in perfect unplayedwith condition, do you think this is evidence of another serious collector's 'leftovers' rather than a child who had them as toys and lost one? Someone who bought the set cos they needed one species, and didn't keep the rest. If it was Ebay or a forum sales/trade post we wouldn't be surprised to see partial sets as that's a more usual way to move on unneeded figures from a box or tube, but perhaps a donation by someone who isn't into online selling and uses local thrift stores to pass on anything they don't want.

That's a huge find Paige even if the Bateleur is missing. I think I have two figures only and none of them is the Bateleur . I really love those models I have, I think they are my favorite K&M tube figures.
Thanks for sharing the information, I love the text about the gastronomic preferences of the Philippine eagle.

Wow what an awesome find!!

Wow, marvellous birds

Nice Catch, but sadly the one of the best ismissing.

Thank you everyone! It is a shame that the most intriguing species was missing... the tube had painter's tape across the top and it seemed firmly attached. Obviously I have no idea when the cap/model went missing (before donation, after donation... the area I was in was very rural and for lack of a better definition... an area with a very hippy type of attitude . The tube would have had to be purchased elsewhere as there are no reasonable locations it would have been sold at nearby [i.e. zoos or toy stores etc.] ), I tried to look around but had no luck. I was just amazed as George is that for one they are all in mint condition, and two that they were still in the tube. I would have assumed, if it were owned by a collector, that the tube would have been better off being sold on ebay (even missing the bataleur) than donated. But some individuals I suppose just want to get rid of unwanted pieces I guess. I plan on comparing them to my own models when I get them unpacked and possibly keeping one of these figures instead since they are such nice condition, and trading the duplicates. Definitely keeping the tube! If for nothing else than for history's sake. 

Amazing find! Congrats

Well done and congrats!!

Regardless of the missing bataleur, the birds you have found are very beautiful!

Thank you everyone!

Some happy new additions for myself. Firstly, my very first PNSO that I have purchased for myself. I have 2 by coincidence (the megalodon was shipped to me by mistake by a seller and allowed me to keep, and the livyatan from Blaine ordering a duplicate. I have long wanted to indulge in this brand but have had to hold off for monetary reasons and priorities. But with some fall sales coming on... I couldn't resist the BABIES. I got some feathered dinos, marine reptiles, a spino(!), and the models from the extant series I wanted. They were out of the gazelle, but he is on his way to me currently.

I also threw in the MARVELLOUS Mojo elephant(!) and other '22 models I was missing. Very happy with them all. The PNSO models all have great energy (or lack of it apparent in the croc  ). I also snagged the old CollectA black lab puppy and I adore his sad/nervous looking face. Such a great expression.

This is a mixture of figures from StripedHyena and personal ebay/thrift finds. I love this AAA variant hyena, though I like his colorful friends in my storage too. He got me the first Iberian Wolf for my collection! As well as some more Kaisers, a tiny wild dog, and an adorable quokka. The Little Busters Calf finishes off my red angus family and took me long enough to find! I also got a Schleich Noctis set I wanted when I was a kid. The New Ray fish set was a steal online, a lovely vintage blue jay from thrift shopping. And lastly, an old Safari Ltd. percheron and a new Papo swallowtail! I got a butterfly for my mom for Christmas and snagged 2 while I was at it. I chuckled to myself as I thought "Blaine will be happy" while buying them, and then it came up in a recent topic elsewhere on forum.     Anyway, I hope you all enjoy!

Oh an one last thing, I discovered my "yoga sasquatch" figure from Kelly some time ago is part of a set! Of course I HAD to grab his sisters... I rather enjoy these silly models.

Very interesting figures.

I had the PNSO Archaeopteryx but the damn thing wouldn't stand so I recently replaced it with the Favorite version.

Another wonderful selection of treasures! Your additions are always filled with such an amazing variety, covering loads of species and brands, always lots of fun to scroll through your photos!
And I totally agree about that Lab puppy, I adore that little dog! The facial expression is perfect and really captures the look that retrievers quite often give you at that age And so finely detailed too with excellent proportions, and that's saying a lot considering the size of the model!

Excellent additions to your collection Paige! The yoga sasquatch trio made me smile
I like the elephant a lot but perhaps my favorite is that cute giraffe calf

Wonderful selection of models again!!!!

There are so many wonderful things you've added since I last checked, congrats on these really excellent finds! What stands out to me in the recent photos is the AAA hyena. I love that model and hope to come across one someday, so full of . . . I don't know, pizzazz.

Also love all the little Australian critters in an earlier photo! You've really got a knack for fining all sorts of creatures!
