A rare baby in my collection is also this cute Schleich orangutan!
He'll have a great life here once I'm finding a family for him!

Robert, thanks for finding some important figures for my collection and also for other collections!

Congrats Roger!
That Safari penguin is great! I like the pose.

I'm glad they arrived safely

Congrats Roger! Lovely African penguin!

Congratulation Roger

Nice new figures for your collection!

Congrats Roger! My favorites are the Mallard Duck and the Lion! :)

-Kristie

That was indeed a great trade for you! Congrats Roger and hurray for Robert!
The Safari penguins are all gorgeous but this swimming one is my absolute favorite.
Oh,how I would love to have some of the Colorata penguins in my collection...

Great additions. Thanks for sharing with us.

Congrats for finishing your Safari penguin collection!

Thanks to all for your kind words! :)
Susanne, it is indeed the Schleich made in Germany iguana!
Kristie, it looks you are thinking too much in lions. Anyway this one is more interesting than the one who replaced him!
Vivien, now I completed the Safari team, should I think in Colorata? NO, now I need my money to buy CollectA and Mojo!

Nice new additions

I will tell You which of these 2 arrived quicker haha, why would mole need any glasses Roger? Sun glasses maybe ?

You know, in netherlands moles are under the sea level, so I think swimming glasses would be better!

This is crazy!!

Yes, Ana! That's why we deserve a house full of plastic toys! :)
... it also makes me think how right is my wife when she asks:
- What are you talking about all night in this forum?
... and with the silliest face of the world I have to reply:
-Hmmmm.... ... ... about moles and... ... glasses!

Why do i recognise this so well?

I guess moles have beer glasses in the Netherland... But I'm sure for Belgian moles

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

In some cases we might see through different kind of glasses indeed, haha...
But Germany is known for its beer, and that the Germans drink much beer, but they found out, the we Dutch drink more beer per head, as the Germans do...
Same for the frites(pommes frites) in Belgium, because the Belgiums are famous for that around here, and we Dutch seem to eat more of that per head than the Belgiums...

This time I joined some Safari figures that arrived in different days and are fantastic gifts!
The Authentics fox is a very kind gift from Yvette while kudu, turkey and condor are gifts from Kristie that is my favourite US bombardier!

Safari lesser kudu, Authentics red fox, California condor and male turkey

The last arriving was this magnificent male turkey! He was never in my wish list but Kristie loved it so much that she wanted to send this heavy friend to play with my foxes! See [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
He came with a Breyer SM horse that I'll show in other occasion. :)

Safari 2007 male turkey

I'm really happy with him, I don't collect farm animals but turkeys are really weird but at the same time magnificent birds!

Here with my other turkey, a Atosa. I don't know if it is the mould of Nayab, Chap Mei or other brand.

Safari and Atosa turkeys

The smaller turkey need a new home as well as part of my farm birds!

In this picture among some weird adulterations, you can see Collecta peacock, mallard duck and white duck; Schleich grey goose, mallard duck, white goose and retired white duck; Safari turkey and Atosa/Nayab swan.

Curiously I forgot to show the Safari mandarin duck and I figured that all my CollectA swans are gone so I need to find another for me.

Finally the Safari/Schleich Authentics red fox! That's also a very important addition in my foxes collection, as I told, a very kind gift from Yvette! I love all foxes, mainly those that are crazy! Now you understand why there's no chickens in my aviary!
