Three - or four ? new Starlux :-)

It is a very long time since I dared to look at Ebay.fr, because there are so many lovely Starlux

But I am a weak person
And now also a happy person
- look! I got 3 of the ones I have wishing for a long time : A hyena, an anteater and a lovely lynx
And a little panda. The seller said it is also Starlux, but I have my doubt

Almost a little sculpture, isn`t he ?

This lynx is just adorable, I think

I never could resist a hyena, and this one is even a STRIPED hyena

Hmmm, the little panda with brown markins, - at first I thought he was from Britains with a lighter colour, but he is smaller than his Britains-friend

Can anybody tell me what brand he is ?

Beautiful newcomers Susanne! Anteater is adorable, striped hyena so dangarous and they all are fantastic, congratulations
Yes, this anteater has so much personality

Susanne, the giant anteater is really great! Congratulations those are really nice additions!
Christophe has a Starlux panda in his website See here

Here the Hong Kong copies from Britains in Willy's collection! See here

Wonderful additions, that's a great anteater

Wonderful catch!! Congratulations Susanne!!!

Love them! Ohh, that tiny detailed anteater! And that retro-hyena!!!!!!!! Congrats Susanne!

Thankyou friends

Roger, you are always so helpful
It is not like any of thise, - I think it is a copy of some sort, but it doesn`t look like the usual HongKong ones

Congratulations for a fantastic find,Susanne!
The Giant Anteater is absolutely wonderful,I love him...

Congratulation Susanne, I'm happy you enjoy them

Could you share more pics of the panda ? Is there something wrote on it ? A sign ? Is the material very different from usual HK copies ?

I am asking that because perhaps it is a PRIOR... But not sure yet

Thankyou Vivien

And thankyou, Christophe, - I was hoping that you could help, - and of curse you can

The little panda is not marked at all , and he is really heavy, more heavy and solid than Britains, a bit harder also, but not as hard as Starlux

Here are some close-ups.

Ohh, dear how terrible he looks at such close scrunity
He doesn`t look so damaged at all when I hold him in my hand
And, yes, I HAVE washed him

PS, no, he doesn`t feel like a Hong-Kong model at all

Congrats Susanne!

Susanne, I was not saying it was a Hong Kong copy! I have no idea how HK copies are! I only was giving links to a Starlux panda and a Britains copy to you make your own judgement. I also think this is not none of them and the Starlux here shown is completly different!

Poor Susanne

Every time I make a walkaround, I think the same

IMHO it is perhaps an unknown PRIOR. My only doubt is about the eyes, PRIOR models had often black and white eyes

Congrats on your lovely new Starlux models Susanne!
I love the anteater very much, because when i tried to find him some months ago, i ended up with a Clairet and another French maker anteater, haha, so i still need him...

The Britains copy of that panda is a riddle indeed, but i think Christophe could be right about it beeing a Prior or so...
It seems if the removed the Britains stamp from the mould at least...

Beautiful additions. They are all so wonderful. Congratulations

The striped hyena is especially interesting...
