Models of human figures, - show us your people :-D

Hi everyone, meet Lady Wolf. She's from Kurdistan. She used to be a sniper:affraid: but she gave up her former profession mostly because she loves dogs and animals so she was on the look out for a new job when I spotted her and called her in, so she's now joined as a Zookeeper for my animals!   She has her wolf-dog to help her out in her new job.

Just got my Replacements for the 1:12 and 1:50 Scale People.

This Couple is 1:30, but im using them for Comparison with 1:32 Inch Dinosaurs i will be commissioning. (I been thinking about getting them both a Vehicle. as well)

In our barn we've got twin brothers, but as there is still too much work, a new girl applied for a job. John knows her from another barn, so there's a big hug when the two meet again.

But as the two have never met before it's just a polite handshake

And no hugs for the boss of course

For a test she has to prove she can put neat braids on a pleasure horse - under the critical eyes of the men

The figurines are Fox Mulder and Dana Scully from McFarlane Toys and the are in scale with not too big classic Breyers

WOW ! My favorite series actors are working in your stable

Which one is the real Mulder, and which ones are aliens

Oops, now you got me I never saw a single episode of X-files in my life I just liked the figurines because of their 'stableyard-outfits' with safety shoes and padded vests and stuff.

You must see them if you can find them
I have seen them all at least twice

This is a pretty old topic but I found it interesting. I've never been very interested in the people that come with toy sets, I'm an animal person - until I started collecting Schleich. I love the people! At first I was only collecting the people to make scenes with my horses, but I found that I got attached to the people themselves and I've started collecting them even when they aren't strictly involved with horses (although most of mine are). I started with Schleich, but just like with my horses, I've branched out to different brands. Papo are now actually my favourite, there is something so charming about them.

Schleich, except for the bottom three, which are Papo.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
All are Schleich at the barn. I have a few more riders that aren't set up yet.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
My cowboys/girls and most of my other riders. Most are Schleich but one of the cowgirls is a Safari repaint and there is a Safari man in dressage finery on a Schleich Friesian. Of course Ted and two Mojo Fun Cowboys in the centre.

Two knights, Schleich and Papo mixed together.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
My Native American people, all Schleich but the smaller lady who is Mojo Fun. I'm going to get them set up better but they are newer arrivals.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Last but not least are the settlers. The donkey is searching for his miner still and the rest of the wagon trail is hoping to find the settler family. LOL

Lindsy :)

This is wonderful
Your shelves and dioramas are awesome !!! Gosh, - that barn, - is it made of Tunesian crochet ?

I so totally agree that collecting people-models is fun also, and that Papo has made some very charming ones ...and Safai too
I have at the moment two Papo horses and riders on my piano, where I enjoy them every day

Hey, look at that Siamussy kitty, - always poking her head up when I take pictures  

Thankyou for bring this topic forward again  

Thank you so much for the compliments. The shelves are from Ikea and meant for DVDs, but I have repurposed them :) . Billy from Ikea is the shelf that the barn is on. I will be removing books and using several others for dioramas. It was the only way I could think to do a fairly large diorama without taking up too much space.

My mother has made the barn using plastic canvas and yarn. She did a very nice job in making the stone, I think, and the horses are quite happy to be stabled there . I plan to have her make several backgrounds for my Native Americans and Western Settlers.

I have been considering some Bullyland people as well to add into my scenes. I am wondering how do they compare in scale to Schleich and Papo?

Ahhh, now I see : That is half stitch Cross stitches, I think ! What a woderful idea
Must be nice and warm for stable too

Thankyou for telling about the shelves. This kind of info is both interesting and useful

About the Bully people, - as far as I remember, they are a bit larger than for instance Papo. I use Papo riders for my Bully horses

But there are some wonderful Bullyland models in their "Alpine world"-series, IMHO
The Inuits were brilliant for an Arctic diorama, but unfortunately they are retired now...may still be possible to find them, though...

Haha, I thought I saw a familiar face Nice addition to your photo!

I think I have one of the people from Bullylands "Alpine World" series, the boy with the Border Collie (the dog looks like a Border Collie, so in my eyes it is a Border Collie )

I see several familiar faces

Fabulous Lindsy! Everything looks perfect and it is nice that you mix several brands. I love especially these Indians and I have the small Mojö lady too and how great yours is in much better company than mine.

The Alpine World series are very cute people, I had thought of trying to find them, maybe some day. For now I am going to concentrate on what I have. Bullyland has some very nice Native Americans and Cowboys that I've been looking at . I'd like the Inuit people as well. So many nifty people so little time!

my men evolution sets:

This is absolutely amazing

A wonderful and interesting presentation of these people from various brands , - even Starlux is there
I will surely come back and look at them again and again

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I really enjoyed it! Such remarkable figures and very well presented. I am actually a very open minded person but how come a Quick erectus withtout sex?

 Thank to you both Susanne and Rogério! :)

I also have Evolution of Man, by Safari LTD (Safariology, 2014).
A couple of these are cartoony, I will admit, but it is a great chance to get 5 hominids in one set. The older Bullyland set is probably better, but hard to come by these days.

1. †Australopithecus afarensis
2. 'handy man', †Homo habilis
3. 'erect man', †Homo erectus
4. neanderthal, †Homo neanderthalensis
5. modern human, Homo sapiens sapiens

Some of mine[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

SO MANY

And from many different brands  and styles
Wonderful to scroll slowly down and enjoy them

The little old lady in yellow dress and white pinafore, - do you know what brand she is ?
I have had one like that for ages, but never knew anything about the poor lady

She is by New Ray.

Taylor, when you mention "some"...
