| Finally got this one! Its not all reptiles as you can see, but this set is nicely done. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The brand must have 2 or more sculptors as far as I can tell. Overall there are some models that are a bit odd in proportions, some that have incredible details (like this one) and another person who makes phenomenal sculpts! Now let's get into it! The belly scutes and scales are what impressed me the most on these guys! Consistent and small round scales on each lizard. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I mean look at these! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Tiny little teeth! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]An unevenly opened frill adds some realism [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]not sure what that leg is doing though. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]A handsome caiman [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Not the best hinge feature I have seen but a good first try for the company. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]A couple of low hanging heads with tongues sticking out (the beardie has a separately sculpted head and you can see a seam) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]When I went to look at the front of the hood I noticed they even got the epiglottis sculpted on this guy! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]My komodo messed up her lipstick a little but again, other details are amazing. The skin folds, the muscle and skeletal bulges in all the right places... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]These are probably the best of the set IMO though. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Lookit these faces! Those gill filaments! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The only drawback on this set is that my black widow(?) got tangled up in her baggie and now her legs are all over the place. Sort of makes her look like one that has passed on... besides, I am no expert on inverts but these two impress even me! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]They did a great job on this set. _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Thank you for photos of this set! I'm not sure if I will get it or not. I pretty much only want the beardie, axolotl, and frog. The beardie's tongue looks very weird and the colors are a bit lacking, but the details are very nice and it could be a good sculpt for a repaint. Honestly to me it looks like one of the most accurate bearded dragons out there.
I like that axolotl more than CollectA & Safari's I think.
Nothing else really jumps out to me for some reason, although I love the folds on the komodo and the caiman's articulated jaw.
How big are these approximately? Does the bearded dragon scale closer to Safari's or CollectA's?

| I will post some comparison pics tomorrow. For me, the axolotl is great but I don't have the others yet. BUT the details seem better in this one. I only have one other beardie besides the tiny Schleich (the CollectA) but I will show a comparison tomorrow for you. :) _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| Did you check the spider's pulse? I love the frog, The frog seems to be looking at the photographer lady as if to see if it can swallow her. Some of these figures are really great, thanks for sharing with us. |

| I have debated about this set, it's pretty impressive how realistic they went with it! In the end I didn't get it because I feel like they are too big for me, but I still remain very impressed. I agree that the amphibians are the stars but I also love the Komodo, leopard gecko, frilled lizard, and caiman. Thank you for the in hand pictures and congrats on another great Toy Many set! |

| A few more details I wanted to share. :) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The Toymany is longer but smaller built.

| Thank you for the extra photos! I don’t know why I was thinking these were bigger..
I quite like the size though. And the Toymany is more accurate _________________ Jolie
