Is this a new Eikoh set for 2023?

I've just seen these figures for sale as MiniaturePlanet for 2023.
Does anyone know if it is officially a new Eikoh set?

Wonderful models and one Felis margarita!

Great selection of models,especially the Sand cat,Sun bear,Mongoose,Marine Iguana and Star tortoise.

What species are the monkey (looks like some kind of squirrel monkey) and mongoose? If it is Miniatureplanet, Eikoh might indicate.

BTW figures on eBay do show the traditional Miniatureplanet tag on the animals, so I am thinking it's legit!

The lower part of the figurines image very interesting for me

Very very interesting. A second sand cat and the mongoose and the sqirrel monkey are interesting

Taylor is correct, the same place where I found this picture shows these models with MiniaturePlanet tags. Unfortunately no information about the species. It looks like a squirrel monkey but it lacks the dark around the mouth so I have no idea what it is supposed to represent.

For the monkey is no match in the "Bildatlas der Primaten" with no black aroun the mouth. Also only one match with a no black hairs on the head.

I don't have the Japanese names but the list does not specify some figures up to the species level. Here we go:

Aardvark
African Buffalo
Galapagos Marine Iguana
Jackson's Chameleon
Lion
Lion Cub
Mongoose
Ornate Horned Frog
Ostrich
Radiated Tortoise
Rattlesnake
Rockhopper Penguin
Sand Cat
Squirrel Monkey
Sun Bear
Tiger

It's been suggested by Pardofelis/Isidro on the ATF that the 'mongoose' is a falanouc, and I am included to agree.

To be fair it is a good match even if it is not a true mongoose. Though, the model seems quite poor and I believe a few identifications will work. This set seems to be lazier than the average Eikoh models and that was the reason of my doubts before seeing the tags. Since you shared this info on ATF, I can see that not even Brett is aware of this set. So let's wait for official information, sometimes the Japanese names are more informative.

I agree for the Falanouc, it is a clever choice.

For the Saimiri the "best" choice seems the Ecuadorian squirrel monkey to me.

Oh, I missed this thread Falanouk and Sand Cat will be definitely on my list
The squirrel monkey and rattle snake will depend on the exact species...

But it´s always so hard to get those Eikoh figures here in Europe

Yeah, i got my wishes today :)

pics maybe ?

How did you get them, Andreas?

Nice to know this is a real set. I am curious to see pictures of these models.

Of course it's a real set. I've had it for months and already reviewed the mongoose on the Blog a while ago.

EDIT: And in-hand, the mongoose is not a falanouc

Pics will come after my june zoo news. I found it on Ebay sold by Maria

Oh missed the blog and missed the sell on ebay :/ Even that it isn´t a falanouc, I will search the mangoose as those species are still rare in toy shape.
