Thank you for detailed pictures, Susanne! All the new birds look very nice, although they are a bit too large (as always with Schleich birds, though).

Thank you for the post Susanne, it's very interesting. I saw some days ago the peacock in a shop, but I haven't time enough to take a look to it. I'm waiting also for Papo peacock, then I'll take a decision because I have no peacocks on my collection and I will want only the best looking.
For the hyacinth macaw, for the pictures, I prefer the safari one. I have all safari parrots and the only thing that annoys me a little bit is that the golden and blue macaw and the red one have the same mould. Adding the schleich to the collection will be an improve for it. And I also think that the schleich one has better proportions. If you also have the safari macaw will be nice to have a picture of both together :)

Great idea, Joan
The comparison is really interesting ! For once the Schleich ones are not the ones with huge heads

We have the most wonderful sunshine here today, and almost no wind ( !!!!), so I tried to take pictures outdoors. But the light is dazzeling, the pictures get confusing

Thank you very much Susanne!
I really like the Schleich one shape (I'm meaning to the yellow and blue macaw). In case of hyacinth I think the Safari one will stay on my shelves :)

Beautiful pics, Susanne! And very useful too.
I like the fact Schleich macaws are smaller, but need to wait until I hold them in my hands to evaluate quality.

When I went to the shop, my decision was to buy the SCHLEICH Yellow and blue macaw and only this one since I already have the fantastic SAFARI Ltd hyacinth macaw.

Then I discovered the models in real... I came back with the hyacinth macaw and let the yellow and blue macaw in the shop

Congratulations Susanne

Beautiful pictures thank you

Nice macaws Susanne (o)): (o)): (o)): (o)): (o)):

Great model. The head look okay, but it could be more delicate, and the beak thinner, but the might not be possible on a model so small.
