Brand Identification topic

Thank you Anna

Some of those holstein cattle and the belted pigs look a lot ERTL, too. I have a plastic tub of ERTL holsteins that I got when I was little, and I think they look like the same figures. The cattle should have the ERTL logo on their bellies. It's a bit smaller, though, and it's sort of hidden between a few folds of skin.

Thanks bjarki12! I just looked through them again and none of them have any markings, but it is possible they are ERTL.

Five years ago (?) I was given a bag of miscellaneous toy animals from a goodwill store (I think it only cost fifty cents or a dollar or something like that) which included models such as the Schleich Caribou and Narwhal, as well as some other nice pieces and a lot of toob animals. I had thought this was a toob animal until I saw the MBA otter:

Does anyone know if this is from the MBA collection or if I'm being optimistic and its a toob animal? The otter is about 7 centimeters long.
Thank you.

Yes,it is from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Collection.I remember it being part of a set of two.The other otter from the set was a female holding a pup. 

Thank you. Its strange to find the rarer pieces in situations like this. Now, I'll be looking for that female...

I have no clue, but he looks great!

Yes the cattle, pigs, and horses look like Ertl to me. They match up to file photos I have of the lines, though I haven't any in my own collection right now.

Anyboby knows the brand of this cool guys
They were sell single, but I think they former were in a toob

The chimp is the old Schleich one, and the camel and pig are Schleich. I believe the lighter elephant is as well. Not sure about the rest, never saw them before

@4U: Jep, the elefant is also from schleich [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Thought so, it's an odd angle so I wasn't sure.

Many thanks, i was not sure because i only have a few old Schleich figurines

Anyone recognize this elephant?

Photo is not mine, was taken at the NAN model horse show in Kentucky. The horse is traditional scale, so this is a huge model, if that helps. Too bad the donkey is blocking the elephant!

Do you think it's a customized Schleich fighter elephant?

The UK branches of the Tiger store had a blow-moulded soft PVC elephant a few months ago that was about 6/8 inches to the shoulder which looked like this one? It would be sold in other outlets elsewhere in the world, it was 'China' sourced. Like a dog's squeaky-toy without the squeak!

The Works (a discount book and craft store) have similar dinosaurs at the moment - an Ankylosaurus twice the size of your head, smaller Dimetrodon and something else?

No, this elephant is much larger. Taller than 12 inches most likely.

Based on the tail I think it's the Marx elephant from their African hunt series. They did a series with their 7 inch tall action figures with some African animals that are large and have wheels in the feet. Here is a current eBay auction link for one. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

The Tiger one is about the same size, but a bit fatter and maybe thicker legs?

Can anyone help please? On ebay I found a small and incredibly detailed "Masse" or composition horse in stablemate size. Here it is - together with an old Elastolin that the nice vendor put in the box for free

Nice catch but no idea

I don't mean to question you when you've got the thing in your possession...but it looks like an Airfix kit horse? Are you sure it's composition...does it have a join mark, the Airfix horses are two halves with a glued-on mane and fringe, the reins being cut by the modeller from styrene sheet? The ammo pouches make it look like maybe the Bengal lancer's equipment?
