Schleich colour variations

Here are mine, not the best and clearest pic, but i think it suits...
Both made in Germany, no scratches, so no rubber...

Fidda, the Saluki, is already doing her best to re-arraange the lawn

Well, that shortens the time of lawn-maintainance, i mean the mowing of it...

Congratulations on your great find. It's always nice to find something unexpected in a box.

Look at this auction
What do you mean to this?

That is interesting, mine has a blaze

Is there other things I overlook ?

Look even at the paint

I am sorry, it looks almost exactly like the one that I have, Peter

Do you have another one that is different ?

Great picture you made

Mine also has the blaze. I can´t see the differences on manes, I don´t know why are they remarked...

The differents on the manes are minimal.

And the colour is a lttle bit brightlier.

The last one was sold for EUR 40,51.

What do you mean, it is not crazy to sold 40 Euro for it.

40 Euros [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Yes, totally crazy, mamma mia, and there must be at least two, since it went so high [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

I continue seeing both manes equal... Differences can be because of the handpainting, as in any other one...

You could be right.

But the same differents should be on 50 pieces.

So the handpainter could be having a bad monday. LOL

And a beautyful, sooty colour in the head

And this one was sold for EUR 52,12.
I think the seller would sell more in the future

So finally, what´s the diffference between one mane and other? It seems to me that the different one could be the blazed horse´s mane, it looks bad painted; the not-blazed horse´s one looks normal to me.

I forgot to say... I told this to a friend of mine, who has some Schleich horses. She told me she´s going to have a look at her horses (she has some of them, but now they are "hidden" because she´s not interested on them anymore) because she thinks that her Haflinger doesn´t have the blaze. I think she´s wrong... But I hope not because she told me that if it´s the no-blazed one she will give it to me

Congratulations from me too Sylvia! He'll be a wonderful addition!

Sylvia, you must show us as soon as you get him, please

This subject made me check haflingers, and found that these two are rather different from each other.

The one to the left has a much more narrow head. It is made in Germany.
I bought the other one recently because the paintjob was better, he is made in China.

The German ine with the dark around the eyes has a thicker chin seen from the side:

The Chinese did a more carefull job painting the mane

It could be fun to see if others have ones made in China or Germany, - if they simply had different moulds in the two countries, - and if the paintwork of my German one was just a "monday-model"
