Schleich arrivals

Today some Schleich figurines arrived in a package!



Some of them were on my wish list since time ago, like the zebras, and another ones are 2011 new models.

Next week, and thanks to Andreas, will arrive to my home another very wanted figure for me: the elephant seal!!!

There are still two purchase I want to make this year, one of Papo items and another one from Safari... but my shelves are full .. I must talk to my wife, lest see if I can build one more

Congrats Joan, those zebras have to move in our house too

Congrats Joan! Schleich Proud African is gorgeous & pretty sure your wife would like the idea of having another ....

Congrats Joan! Those are excellent new additions. :)

HAHA

Congratulation!!! A big lot of very nice animals!!!

Those are fantastic figures, Joan

I really love the Macrauchenia

And the others too !!!

What animals does your wife like ?
Perhaps if she is sometimes the one who choses

Hurray for Andreas, - our German connection

sorry for my English Maybe I may not explained well, what I mean is that I will need another shelf for my animals

So it was not shelves to put your wife on

I think this problem of having shelves enough will eventually hit every collector
Then there is nothing to do but to pack some figures away in boxes HOWWWWWL

But is also fun to find them again, changing the contents of the shelves, and making new "shows"

I have often thought it could be great to have a shelf that ran all the way round the sitting room, corridor and bedrooms, under the ceiling, for the larger figures.
But - help! all the dust they could gather there

Nice additions to your collection, Joan...

Joan, what a great lot of figures! Each is better than the next! Surely your wife won't mind more!!!

i think eventually most collectors end up collecting shelves!
Especially collectors who join STS!
I must figure out what to do with all the new ones since joining STS - it used to be they could stand on top of the cabinet, but now there are so many, it looks like my living room is infested with little plastic sheep!
Who remembers the Monty Python sketch of the people who had a flock of sheep living in their walls like mice?

Congratulations Joan!! Wonderful figurines Even though I have two sizeable display cabinets, I'm running out of space again I hope you can build another shelf for your growing collection

Congrats! The grazing zebra is my favourite of all those you show us, and I also have her :)

Congratulations Joan! :) I'm really glad you've found the elephant seal! We know you wanted it a lot! That's very nice from Andreas! :)
From your additions, even all are nice, the most special for me is the macrauchenia, it is a really exotic and unusual animal. I hope you are also lucky with the beluga!
Ah, if you want to convince your wife display all the figures by size from larger to smaller and also be careful with colours!

This thought is always in my mind!!
