| Subject: Breyer and Famemaster Models came in from Russia last month... Mon May 14, 2012 4:28 am | |
| I made a trade with Daria from Russia last month, and i already have her models here since a week or so. Sadly enough i wasn't able to send her lot yet, but this will happen very soon, sorry Dari... Anyway, this lot included a Breyer Black bear, a Breyer Reeves Llama, and 3 fantastic Famemaster 4-models, which were very hard to put together by the way, as they had many parts, and the description was very small, and not very clear. Sadly enough, the tucan was not very well made in the parts, the paiting does not fit the lines of the models as you will see. But for that, the scarlet macaw and American horned owl are fantastic! Here they are: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Breyer Black Bear/Baribal [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Breyer Reeves Llama, it is not the typical hollowcast hardplastic that Breyer normally uses, but a very hard and sturdy kind of plastic, almost like the Safari models. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Here to compare with the Schleich model, were you can see, that the Breyer is so much better... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The 3 Famemaster birds together, already build together, and with the original boxes. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Famemaster Great Horned Owl, hunting a ground squirrel. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Here to compare with the Schleich European Eagle Owl. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Famemaster Scarlet- or Yellowwinged Macaw, the hardest one to build together, but a very nice model! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Here a pic to compare to, with the Schleich Blue and yellow Macaw, and the Nayab Scarlet Macaw. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Famemaster Toco Tucan, from the best side... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Because here you can see, that some parts do not fit well together, and that the painting of the parts does not match... [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Here with the rest of my tucan family.

| Thank you for the compliments Susanne, Yvette and Kristie! I must admitt, that i like the hardplastic beagle and collie very much to, they have a certain quality as i said before, it is almost if they were made out of porcelain... And i can't remember seeing them ever before in all of those years... |
