Duck-Anch-Amun's Newcomers Update 20.04.2024

Lovely new additions, Yowies have made so many wonderful models and species, definitely a fun brand to collect!

Some really great new additions! The collectA models and Yowies are really great!

Thank you :) Yowie is truly a lovely brand and there are more that I need :) But it´s such a shame, that we haven´t access to them here in Europe and when, they are so expensive on ebay.

Here, I present my last newcomers for 2021. Some additions to replace older figures. And I used the chance to add some of the Maia&Borges Fishes to my purchase. However I´m more than surprised how big they are 0.0.
I don´t think that I would have bought them if I knew the size, however now they will find a place in my collection :)

Love the fish!

I love that fish set. I only miss one from the Schleich versions of them. Congrats on all!

I really like the fishes

I remember seeing those fish and thinking how big they are. Though, some animals we cannot mix and try to use them in a good size with all other models. Currently, even if I don't have them, I like the fact they're relatively large models. They're also very good.

I agree, the fishes are beautiful.

Yes, the fishes are made very well and they´re beautiful. Now I miss only 2 of them :)

To me, those fishes are among the gems of animal collecting, as they have such a great history

Originally M&B manufactured them for Schleich at a time that fishes were not made very often, and they have since become expensive collector's items.
Then M&B made several of the old Schleich models ( horses, whales, musk ox etc, some you could not tell from the old Schleich models ( Ad I suppose they ARE the same ? Made from the same mould, and by the same people, just marked differently? ), but these fishes are painted very differently

I also love the three others. The llama has always appealed to me. He may not be the most exact model, but he has tons of charm

Very special additions. Big congrats

What is the green thing top left, please

I almost forgot a figure of a Siamese crocodile existed, it is not even on TAW. I am adding it to my wish list but I see it is sold together with other 9 figures in the Asian set. I don't know if it can be acquired individually. I'd love also to see a closer picture or a comparison with a better known croc.

Congratulation Kevin 

This Siamese croc is probably the only model that I would pick in the PNSO Asian set. I second Rogério, would you mind showing more pics please ?

Thank you everybody :) Yes, I will try to make some more photos later. I already added a picture (and one with the box) in the "Pictures for Toy Animal Wiki" thread :)

It´s a Yowie pencil topper and presents a Scottsdale Burrowing Crayfish. Here a link that Andreas posted some times ago: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

And here a comparison photo with the Papo Ghavial, the only standard sized crocodile that I own. It´s the same size as this Bullyland Nile Crocoile that I own, too.

When I saw the Artic Terns in teh sale list of User Stripedhyena, I knew that have to take my chance. It was the third time, that I saw this amazing figure sold on STS and this time it worked

He was so nice, that he reserved the Terns for me, that I could add some more figures from my wishlist :) Thank you for this opportunity!

Congratulations for finally getting these terns but you also got one figure from my wish list, the Del Prado Bezoar ibex . It is a very beautiful figure too.

Wonderful species for your zoo :)

Great additions especially the lovely Bezoar!

Thank you :) So you are both convinced that it's a (juvenile) bezoar ibex? :)

Beautiful terns, congratulations. The ibex is really nice too.
