A chamois, rather large for Starlux.

When I got this chamois, I was first quite sad. Not because it isn`t nice, but I had bought it for being Starlux, and this one surely couldn`t be
It is large ( or relatively large for Starlux), app 12 cm high, and it is hollow. In the bottom it is easy to see it has been glued from 2 shells.

But look, it actually has got "STARLUX" moulded in the base

Perhaps somebody can tell me about it ? Is it a newer model? Did Starlux change their way of production ?
I would be happy for any help

Congratulation!!! I like Starlux more and more and more!!! And i think it is Starlux, because it looks like Starlux and is also marked with Starlux. Other brands have also bigger models.

This model was sold in the French Alps "gift shops".

It wasn't a toy, STARLUX also made some big flamingoes and sold them as "souvenir" in the Camargue country

Wonderful

Thankyou very, very much, Christophe

So you have a Starlux souvenir Susanne I think he's wonderful

Perhaps the nicest souvenir I have, - just a shame I did was not in the Alps when I bought it

Congrats Susanne, very nice

Congrat on this great figurine Susanne!
Don't worry, it is a real Starlux indeed, who made more bigger models indeed as Christophe mentioned.
But you are not alone in this...

I am the proud owner of this figurine for some years already...

Congratulations for your Starlux souvenir! I think in my homeland souvenirs are donkeys. I don't know why? I need to take a look!

Then it would be Friesian cows in my country, obvious...
You can buy anything with those black and white cow marks in souvenir shops around here...

Yeah, i would like to know to why donkeys are the souvenir animals in Portugal???

I think that in Christophe's homeland of France the Starlux souvenier would be a fox!
Now I know Crocorogerioberto would always like another fox for his collection of 1,263 and a half foxes...
Why you ask would it be a fox?
Well there's a verse somwhere in the Bible about keeping the foxes out of the vineyards, and from what Christophe talks about enjoying his wine I would think that there would need to be alot of vineyards to supply Christophe (and his friends)! As they love to celebrate!

Alas No vineyards in the North of France But a lot of Cellars and bottles

I guess the STARLUX souvenir of the North region, and Paris region too, would be the shitting dog

WHAT? Now Christophe ~ explain the dog part...you have to watch your step in the North region and Paris?

Congratulations Susanne! Beautiful find, wonderful chamois What a nice idea to make animal souvenir for each part of of the country

Oh, I think such souvenir animal may be accurate also for other regions, also in Polish cities But I guess for Polish souvenir I would love to choose wisent, roe deer and salamander instead of such "doggie"

A shitting dog could be any countries animal i guess, haha...
Besides the domesticated Friesian cattle i could not think of any typical dutch wild animal i am afraid...

I don't have something on animals to represent Singapore. Maybe" Merlion"??

What about the Singapore lion Ken?
