| Hi All! I came across some Club Earth Birds in great condition, still in their box! Apparently, Club Earth started as a separate company and became part of Play Visions…? Anyways, the figures are different from play visions molds (compare the major Mitchell’s cockatoos). They are excellently painted, and there are one or two more unusual species included…. The figures came in a small plastic “suitcase”… ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050789_zpsfab5f8fd](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050789_zpsfab5f8fd.jpg~original) Titled “6 Birds to Go, from Club Earth”. And here are the birds! ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050790_zpsdc26577f](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050790_zpsdc26577f.jpg~original) The “toucan” is really excellent, the best miniature one I have seen yet. ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050793_zps36005019](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050793_zps36005019.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050794_zpsb3587238](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050794_zpsb3587238.jpg~original) The vulture is perhaps my least favorite, he seems too light coloured and they should have specified what kind of vulture! Still, I like this one a lot ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050803_zpsa50f0ec0](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050803_zpsa50f0ec0.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050804_zps1c706c19](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050804_zps1c706c19.jpg~original) “Hyacinth Macaw”. No bird set is complete without a parrot! ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050807_zps27c9b21a](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050807_zps27c9b21a.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050806_zpsfc7f1ce2](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050806_zpsfc7f1ce2.jpg~original) The “Major Mitchell's Cockatoo”…I love this bird just for the colours, and figures of Australian animals are always cool. ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050795_zpscd5cf4b4](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050795_zpscd5cf4b4.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050796_zpsf2c06175](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050796_zpsf2c06175.jpg~original) My absolute favorite from the set…a “Scarlet Ibis”! Ibises happen to be some of my favorite birds, I think I like their shape. There are not many Ibis figures around, and this brilliant red one is really stunning. ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050798_zpsf889b0d9](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050798_zpsf889b0d9.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050799_zpsa7cff163](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050799_zpsa7cff163.jpg~original) And a “Pelican”. It is interesting that they chose a Brown pelican (almost all pelicans are white), but I think it makes for a more interesting model. The hand painted colours are totally accurate too. ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050801_zps7c2d323b](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050801_zps7c2d323b.jpg~original) ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go P1050802_zpsf7947b64](https://2img.net/h/i597.photobucket.com/albums/tt60/Kikimalou/P1050802_zpsf7947b64.jpg~original) The paint jobs and sculpting details on all of these are excellent, up to Play Vision standards. Looking at the tag, it shows some birds that were not in this particular box…there must be some more out there! Maybe the boxes came with random assortments of 6? If anyone has other Club Earth birds, please post some pics! P |

| Interesting sets. I didn't know about them. I hope someone have more to show! I like really the figures here represented and I still miss an Ibis in my collection. I hope a major brand can release one of these wonderful birds soon. ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) I also enjoy the choice of a brown pelican, it looks they are not very atractive commercially as long as Safari and Schleich included them in their ranges for a short time, though, those are wonderful birds. ![Very Happy](https://2img.net/i/fa/i/smiles/icon_biggrin.png) |

| Well, I am glad that these are getting so much good attention! If I come across any more I will be sure to mention it...They were originally purchased many years ago in a toy shop in my hometown. I scanned the tag, to help anyone recognize: ![From Club Earth: 6 Birds To Go CCI26072013_0001_zps1579f4c5](https://2img.net/h/i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a571/phrog2/CCI26072013_0001_zps1579f4c5.jpg) As you can see, there must also be a kingfisher, a puffin, and a scarlet macaw....and who knows what else! |

| I actually have some of these birds. I have the macaw, vulture, and brown pelican. My sister has the ibis. I also have a sun conure and European kingfisher from this series. I did not know these were club earth. Thank you for the info

| Indeed the shapes look like Nayab ones - but the painting is so much better! They look awesome - congrats to such a wonderful set. I hope you're able to complete the set. And the package itself is great, too! |

| Arominger, I have tried to send you a PM but it wouldn't go through. I see that you are looking for the club earth ibis. sadly I do not have this figure. I do have the sun conure parrot from this series. it is a very nice beautiful and super rare figure. I will happily trade mine to you in exchange for the K&M proboscis monkey and K&M golden lion tamarin. I am trying to complete the K&M primate series. you can pm me to accept this trade or not. |
