Willy's Schleich additions...

Willy they are fantastic, love the Cape Buffalo. Congratulations on all them!!

Congratulations Willy. I think Christmas came early for you. They are all awesome.

What can I say, man? You just made me drool.

That's awesome!!!

You deserved a big big congratulations.

Well done. The Dutch Indiana Jones has back.

So many rare items come in this month - Do you have a good deal with all this retired items?

Oh Congratulations Willy ( treasure hunter).

I agree with Amy. Santa Claus this year arrived in the Netherlands very soon. Congratulations and we look forward to the half as he went.

Congratulation Willy, it is a hughe and impressive batch

Among them, those one are my great favourites

Willy, congratulations on so many new additions.

I love the Black Angus, Buffalo and the Penguin.

Wow, I love the buffalo! Seeing all your massive (and great!) shoppings makes me want to get some new Schleich items too. Wehee I earned 30 euros today by selling a couple of old school books to a friend, I'll definitely keep them safe for some Schleich-shopping.

Thank you al very much my friends!

Well, there is no Christmas here, just buying stuff, haha.
I do live alone, so i can do with my money what i want, next to paying my bills...
I was just looking out for some Schleich to get, and then i saw that this guy had more of the good stuff...

The Cape-Buffalo is a double now, slightly damaged on the horns, so for the trade, so PM me if you have something for me...

Because they were all seperate items, they were not always cheap...
On average i paid 9,11 euro for every item, and the cheapest were the Farm-Hedges for 3,02 euro.
The most expensive was the female gorilla with 14,33 euro, which is still a good price i think...
But the days that i was bidding for all of these items, it was hard, and i had some hard competitors!
And this made the prices go up more as they should be normally.

But anyway, i have some items, that i didn't even had before, or not in this condition, so i am very pleased with them!
Ok, i know where to hunt for first now after these tropical years, so that makes it more easy for me, but still expensive...

Personaly i am the most happy with the female gorilla, and the 4 calfs...

And i hope i have some doubles coming in for you Christophe...

OMG! you certainly know how to make a girl jealous

What an amazing lot of animals you´ve found. Love all of them, especially the birds

Big big congratz

Congrats Willy!!!
Don't think about the money you spent but about the happyness it could bring to you. I'm sure that you are very happy with all these fantastic collectibles. Hown many times do you spend as much money and it doesn't bring any happyness to you?
Enjoy yourself!!!

A-ha! Willy is back and in top Schleich-collecting form. Well done, Willy - they all seem to be in excellent condition... :)

Thank you Anna, Roger and Phil!

Normally i spend about the same amount of money on new items every month, but still variable, it can be 100 euro, but sometimes 500 euro, it is depending on what i found, and how rare an item is.
Like i said in another tread before, my complete collection growns with between 30-200 items every month.

Of course i don't really think about the money Roger, only when i am bidding, to keep the price low as possible, and when i pay the items, after that i quickly forget about the prices i paid, as i enjoy the fact, that i have them in my hands.

This time nothing very special, the 14162 Wildebeast or Blue Gnu, in the German version, i had the China version already.


Made in Germany


Made in China and Germany, slightly different, the basic colour of the German model is darker, and the painting on the models is somewhat different, but enough for me to keep both versions...

Very nice! I love Gnu's!! :)

Very fine, and dark, addition to your herd Willy

Congratulations Willy! It's a really nice model, great find.

Thank you guys! :)
Actually i bought it for the trade, but as it was a variation, i keep it myself of course!

As first i had the 12508 Schleich Classics English Bulldog in the brown version in yesterday.



And today i had a bigger lot in, in which were some doubles, and most of them were more played with then i hoped.
But all together i had some retired Schleich items to add to the collection.
I offered the doubles to my friend Christophe first, so he has the first pic.
What is left goes in the trade section.
The ones i show seperatly will go in the collections, the other ones are for the trade anyway.


Part 1


Part 2




14098 White Bengal Tigress, which is missing the tip of the tail sadly enough, but it will be in the collection, untill i find another one


14187 Bengal tigercub standing, version 1 with the thinner stripes


14351 White Bengal Tiger standing, completed the family again

I had the 5th Cheetah again too, but in a horrible state, but i will use that for a re-paint


14128 Grizzlybear standing, which completed the whole bear-family again
But he is to worn off in my eyes, so i will hunt for another one... , but untill then, he will stay in the collection


16701 Golden Eagle, so now i need the common bussard only, to complete the birds of prey again...

Nice haul!!

Thank you!

Congratulations on them Willy, lovely additions Shame about the white tiger, is it quite a rare one? The Golden Eagle is really nice.

The standing grizzly looks very impressive!

Thank you all again!
Yes, the older white tiger is quit rare, as it was made for one year only actually.
I didn't watch the picture of the seller very well i guess, so it was my own mistake.
The grizzly has to many rubs to, so it will be replaced in time too.
But for now i completed all of the Schleich bears again, so i am happy so far...
The golden eagle was one of the last birds of prey i needed, only one left to go for now.

Congratulations Willy. Great find and addition.
