Kiki, these sets are not hard to find on eBay, try for example: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (dark dog) or [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] (light dog) |

| Congrats on great additions! That tiny maned wolf is just excellent.
Is the gray tiger meant to be "maltese" or just a fantasy coloration? |

| Thank you everyone! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], This brand is new, from when the forum first encountered it very late in 2022 (I bought my first set in December then). It hasnt been put on TAW as it wasn't a "mainstream" brand yet. IMO though, it could be added if TAW editors felt it appropriate with their range expanding and popularity growing here. I'd be happy to add my photos! [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I am certain Schleich meant it to be a fantasy coloration like their black lion. I bought it as it could potentially pass as the rare/mythic maltese tiger if not for the demonic eyes! _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Alright, first new items for 2024! Technically there os something special that was my very first order of 2024, but its taking the long way from Germany apparently. Hopefully it comes soon. In the meantime... Ya'll saw the Bully wolf already but he did have some traveling companions. I have had TERRIBLE luck lately with packages coming damaged or poorly packed. My red kite doesn't stand well and both birds have paint loss. But otherwise they are great, the baby elephant is adorable and of course a new lupine friend is always welcome! I found some more Chapmei monkeys which are fun, and some Eyscota cats that also came damaged sadly... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Then, with a reminder from Blaine, I snagged a few more Archie Mcphee novelties! The great birds set, a set of "city critters" and a set of crows. I got to split the city critters and crows with a friend as they are 4 figures duplicated into a "set". They are smaller than I thought but pretty cute IMO. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]And then something a little more unusual from A.M.; a set of mushrooms! They are not super realistic but I actually quite like them. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The packaging if anyone is interested. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I will show some comparisons of these guys shortly, but thats a wrap for now! _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| I don't understand why those who sell toy figures send them with inadequate protection. I believe it is not only frustrating for the final customer but also for the manufacturer. They take all the necessary care to produce a well-finished figure, and then it arrives in relatively poor condition. Paintloss is relatively common on Bullyland figures and some of their birds of prey do not stand correctly. It is evident Bullyland was never much worried about it. Miracles like the CollectA barn owl are rare. I got used to the bases of the Papo birds and now I like it. |

| Thanks to Blaine I also picked up the feeder birds! I also got the set of 12 crows! I love how small they are, I have lots of ideas for outdoor photography I have the Bullyland red kite & cinerous vulture too and mine have paint loss and don't stand correctly either Where did you order yours from? I got mine with Minizoo which I thought was odd because they usually package figures quite well. Nice cats too. Congrats!! _________________ Jolie

| Thanks everyone. :) Haven't updated in a hot minute! These are either ebay or local finds (for once!). My german Keeshond FINALLY arrived! I love it. I finally made peace with my not so symmetrical SE reindeer. Then while helping a friend I got to keep some bycatch in the form of old Safaris. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I finally got the old Safari salmon in a great lot. Smaller than I was expecting given their more recent one but a great model! Some other fun old models from that lot. Then I found the green brachi, chinamal sheep, and spino baby at a local antique/thrift shop. I was most excited for the sheep! I wanted one the second dear Taylor showed his recently and then *poof* there it was! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]_________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Thank you everyone!
@Taylor, there are at least 2 paint variations of this model. A nice tan and brown one with dark black points, and this one that is black with brown points and higlights. I hope to find the lighter version too someday. It is just such a gorgeous model. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.
