Old Figueres in bags

One of my friends found these old Figueres in bags in a toyshop.
I was fotunate to buy some of the doubles at a fair price
There is no doubt that they are completely undamaged.
Now my question to the experts is : is that the original plastic bags ?
They do not have tags, - did all Schleich have tags back then, the newest one, - the goat - came in 94.
If they did have tags then, I must conclude that it is not the original bags






The sheep, which according to Gascher`s was made from 84 to `03 is here of a softer, a little more "transparent" material than the undoubtedly newer one that I already have.

Wow, what finds Susanne! Immaculate condition

hi sorry but i dont think they are the original bags as i have both the cockerels and the sheep with schleich tags on them but good finds anyway in such a great condition

You are probably right, Steve, but as y´all say, they are nice
I will leve them in the bags, - it would be a shame if they got scratched :)
In a way it is fortunate they are not very rare, so I have other to put on a shelf when it is their turn to get relief from my eternal shoe-boxes

I say too that the bag is from the seller not Schleich.
The transparent shep is an old variant wich i even have.
From the goat there is even an transparent variant wich i even have.

Oh my bad english

Thank you Peter

Your English is MUCH better than my German

No, the bags are not original from Schleich indeed Susanne, although Schleich often sells their models in bags, specially in later years.
The sheep is an older version indeed, they tend to be in a softer material in some of the models, and later they switched in a harder kind of plastic.

What an excellent find! They may not have tags but they are in such great condition! It would be interesting to know if your friend could talk with the store owner as the owner may be able to give a story about these figures. The metal staple on the bags look to be copper which makes them older (at least in the USA they would be older). Thank you for sharing these great photos.

Great finds. They look to be in great shape. Congratulations.

I ordered some stuff from her too Susanne, i hope they will be great as they look on your pics...

Congratulations

I am sure they do. She is a very careful and tidy person. I like her very much.
- AND she has two horses and a dog, too.
