| I hope you're not tired of my constant request for pictures but it is for the community interest. We've been relatively successful and the Nayab section is increasing noticiably. Today [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] got surprised with this set, I also got surprised the first time I saw the picture because contrarily to most other sets, I'm not really familiar with these figures. Some look like smaller versions of known large models but those are between 3 and 4 inches, 7,5 to 10 cm long. Slightly Larger than traditional tube figures but not much. Additionally, if you want to help me identifying the most unusual species, I'd be grateful. Especially the top right one, what's that? I don't have a better picture but I'll share if I find a good one. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

| Roger, the truth is that Nayab figures are among the most common (and cheapest).... I am surprised that you were not familiar with these About the species, I think that only the two antelopes raise doubts... The orange one is a bongo and the gray one... the gray one is perhaps a nyala or eland... Maybe some kind of wild goat... the tail is misleading. |

| The grey one is probably a Pronghorn |

| Thanks Christophe and Ricardo. Ricardo, I'm working on figures I do not collect. Someone must list them and I'm defintely not familiar with these ones. I only know similar larger versions like the boar or hyena for example. I also have doubts about more than two species but fortunately I can count on all of you. I have them listed as: Nilgai Bactrian camel Markhor? Mandrill (according to Christophe) Kangaroo Bongo (according to Ricardo) Muskox Giant Panda Spotted Hyena Pronghorn Boar Polar Bear It's strange they're so common and there isn't a single one listed on TAW contrarily to all other sets I asked for pictures.

| The grey antelope could be a greater kudu. And dont forget the okapi :) |

| I have these figures (well, some I offered here when I joined the forum) but I don't have them in hand (except the bongo, I'll send you a photo later). The nilgai is an okapi. The wild boar is a warthog. Perhaps the one that remains in doubt is the one you name as markhor, which could indeed be that. They do not keep good proportion to each other but the average size is Schleich-Papo-CollectA scale. |

| Thanks once more Andreas and Ricardo. Okapi was my bad. I had no idea about the bongo but now I agree the body is shaped like a bongo although I can't see any strips and the horns are dark instead of light colored, etc. Though, now I'm convinced it is supposed to be one. Thanks to your help, I think we're now closer to the truth. About the markhor, I have no idea what it is supposed to be and markhor is just the identification I'm more confortable with until someone give me a more convincing one. Ricardo, I believe most, myself included, would love to get several figures from your trades but it is always almost impossible to find figures of your wish list, the same for Andreas. I'm looking forward to see a picture of the bongo, are these figures hollow or solide like the similar sized wolf and fox set? List updated: Okapi Bactrian camel Markhor? Mandrill Kangaroo Bongo Antelope Muskox Giant Panda Spotted Hyena Pronghorn Warthog Polar Bear |

| Sincerely the grey antelope has nothing of a Markhor, especially the horns |

| They are hollow figures (something I don't love either). The truth is that the wild goat-antelope may be a mix of several species. Personally and based on Nayab's production, I would be inclined to say it is a nyala. |

I think it should be kudu. |

| Thanks for your informations and suggestions to the grey ungulate with twisted horns. I agree it does not look like a markhor but I can't see either a Nyala or kudu. It looks more like a wild goat to me but I might by wrong, of course. Maybe we can find a better picture of it.

| Thanks Ricardo for providing pictures of the bongo. You're one of the most eclectic collectors we know and I think your contributions for Toy Animal Wiki could help us a lot to enrich the information provided on it. Now I can see the dorsal ridge bongos typically have. Here the problem is really the weird color choices. About the Nyala, it is much probably the most correct identification but it is really hard to be sure. I can relist it as a Nyala. |

| [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], I’m happy to help in any way I can. My handicap is that I have a large part of my collection in storage and it is not always easy to access specific figures. I hope to have some day, not only the time to catalog everything, but also a room with a large showcase that I can dedicate only to it... The nyala question, besides being the most likely for me, is also based on the miniature nyala that Nayab has. On the colors and the fidelity of the proportions we have to be permissive with this brand.... |

| I'm adding this set here because they're obviously related. This one as a similar assortment but figures are larger. I listed this one before being aware it was similar to the otther one and curiously those versions were easier to identify. So this antelope is the larger version of the bongo? Weirdly I listed the goat thing as a yak on this set. Honestly, I continue completely out about this model but at least we have a different angle here if it is really supposed to represent the same species. Pictures of this set of larger figures are also welcome, I think I've seen the goat thing on Fernando's collection before. I also need your opinion if the warthog of the picture is the same I'm showing below. The tail is differently positioned but it seems it is common and the size falls into this range. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I also moved this hyena from set [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] to this set [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] because the size and pose seems to match better this one.

You've being collecting in a very passionate way and you surely deserve to display your figures as you wish. I relisted it as a Nyala, you're right, we need to be very openminded with Nayab and tolerate a few bizarre shaped things. Please take a look at my previous post. I think those two sets are connected in some way. |

| [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.], yes , the warthog and hyena belong to this larger set. The detail of the tail is simply because the rubber in that part is thinner, not hollow and therefore susceptible to change shape if it has been stored or pressed by another figure in the bag. The fact is that Nayab tends to repeat its species in many sizes. I would say that there are at least 5 spotted hyenas for example... 3 or 4 mandrills and warthogs and a large group of antelopes that according to the scale seem to have procreated among them... |

I messaged you with the link of a sale with an antelope like the one of the link. That one was just to exemplify, it is from Taos' collection. |

| I think I've got the camel (from Ricardo). Or is it a different size? Its hump height is 5.9 cm. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |
