Hello everyone,
I think today is a good day to start a new topic of which I had very much fun creating it.
Every Year we have a speculation thread for our wishes and predictions for the next year until we get our offical public first announcement.
There we always talk about animals, which we wish Schleich brings out, especially ones which haven’t been made by them already in the past.
So I decided to create one, for animals/breeds/species we have already seen in past.
This topic is only made for history information and entertainment it's not an prepration tread for 2026. (That's way too early)
To make it not so difficult I settled in tried to make some easy rules.
1) everything discontinued before 2019 will included, everything after will be excluded. I think a five interval is a good thing for a start, this also an interesting perspective.
2) only one single item per group/breed, the last discontinued date is the one we look for
3) Included are animals from Wildlife, Farmworld, Horseclub Magazin, Cats 1:8, Sea animals begin 1:32, dogs 1:12, some special releases, but there are some exceptions ( for exemple the North Atlantic Right Whale, I didn’t include because there is a new one coming out soon)
4) Excluded are releases from the edeka line, the eldrador creatures and bayala. No unreleased items like the special Bashkir Curly Mare from 2022 are included. No prehistoric animals. (Maybe one other day or someone else takes up the idea and opportunity)
I tried to buildt it up like an award ceremony. The last figure will be the animal/breed/speecies which is longest gone since discontinuation.
So now too the awards. ^^
