Happy Midsummer everyone, I know I'm slightly late about Midsummer, but as I was celebrating with a little haul anyway(which I will review separately at a later stage) I decided to do a creative posing of them all with some driftwood, dried, pressed flowers and moss. It was immensely fun to do this, so I might actually do another later in the year, maybe autumn or Halloween?

Edit: I'm an idiot who forgot to actually SAY what the models are!
From the back left, Schleich Sea Unicorn Stallion, Schleich Marshmallow Unicorn Stallion, Holsteiner Mare, Branvieh(?) Cow, Cougar, Charlois(?) Cow, Schleich 2022 Exclusive Calf, Rainbow Unicorn Foal, Leopard, Gemsbok and a scimitar horned Oryx which I think is...CollectA?
Some may be Papo too, I just haven't checked yet.

Congratulations on getting new models! Such a nice haul. Your diorama looks lovely and I would love to see a autumn or Halloween one. I think that I can see two (?) models that are also part of my collection and several models that are on my wishlist.
Looking forward to your reviews.

Hi Katy, thank you! Y'know I was debating with this shop window type display with them alright, especially seeing all the outdoor fantastic pics from here, but for sure I might do one themed for Halloween if I expand to more wolves or something... ^^

In case you were asking, the scimitar oryx is CollectA and the Charloais cattle is Papo

The Braunvieh cow is a Schleich, and leopard is a Schleich Jaguar. :)

I had no idea what Midsummer is. OK, I read a little about this Irish tradition and the most similar we have here is St. John's. Though, Midsummer was surely an unknown name to me. pale
Great assortment of figures, congratulations. Very Happy

Yes Roger, we call it Midsummer because it's the middle of the year, and happens to be right on 21st June, measuring up with Midwinter on 21st December. June 21st is the longest day of the year(and the brightest), then Dec 21st is shortest and darkest day of the year.
Both times are a time to celebrate for all! :)
