A good day for the Ark

Some 1930's Pfieffer Tipple Topple wild animals (and one Lineol) have just arrived, including our first Pfeiffer Ibex and Armadillo, and our first Lineol 1930's Giant Tortoise. Here are a few comparison pics.

Pfeiffer Ibex on the left; Hausser Ibex on the right. Even in its battered condition, we think the Pfeiffer specimen is a better sculpt.

Pfeiffer's Striped Hyaena on the left, with green eyes and carefully-painted teeth; Hausser's version on the right.

And we got a battered Pfeiffer "loop-tail" Tiger, with all three of the "fat kitten type" cubs.

I can't tell how much I enjoy seeing these comparison pictures of very old figures! Sometimes they are very similar and hard to identify! Pfeiffer ahs many nice figures and you're really lucky having them and enriching even more your fantastic collection! I hope you have many more lucky days to share with us! Very Happy

Thanks, everyone!

We think of Pfeiffer as the first brave pioneers in composition animals.

Tim and Roger, it's great to know that someone else appreciates Pfeiffer!
