Safari says on their Facebook page that the species are: Hatchet Fish, Angler Fish, Viper Fish, Glass Squid, Giant Isopod, Gulper Eel and Black Dragonfish


Bryan - thanks for the video! Now that I see the pilot whale at a different angle, it doesn't look so bad. I still say the color is off and the markings that I mentioned before should be added. I really want to know what species the dolphin is and if it's taking the place of the current Wild Safari Sealife dolphin. Any ideas on what's being retired next year?

They look good! Definitely want that hedgehog, black wolf, dragon minis, and peccary. Might have to buy three of the peccary and start up my own herd! :)

I am really happy about the peccary.

Safari Ltd. posted intro of their 2014 releases on youtube with release dates next to the items, some are coming already in November this year:

I'd like to get that Pachy for Xmas,then 

I'm glad to see the peccary/javelina, too!

I couldn't help but laugh a little bit when I saw the cryptozoology tube, but the more I think about it, the more I think it would be fun to see a few of those critters in the full-sized Safari line.

Disappointing as it may be to see so many repaints and resizes, I think they look pretty good. The pandas really do look like an improvement over their predecessors, and I really like the white bison.

I recently emailed Safari about the species of the 2014 dolphin and they say it's a bottlenose dolphin  

Ooh-i'll be looking forward to the new black wolf,even if it is just a re-color. Maybe they will come out with a white wolf to match it next year?

Thanks Orcagirl, I was also interested in knowing. :)
It looks according with your judgement of the figure that it doesn't match very well a bottlenose dolphin, I suppose the common. Though there is some variation between individuals and it makes me really unsuccessful identifying them.

Safari ltd 2014, is the new " BACK To THE FUTURE"
Red brahman and no female cow at least !
O well the mad economy:(

I apologize, I only saw this now  But you're welcome :) To me, it looks like a spinner dolphin. I don't know why Safari would release another bottlenose dolphin  It seems as if they are too afraid to release a different species for fear that it won't sell. But you never know unless you try.

Same here, anything other than a bottlenose is welcome in my wish list.

Re: the dolphin - I've seen it, held it in my hands. All but played with it. It's not a Bottlenose, regardless of what the company says. Beak is most similar to a Clymene or Striped Dolphin, but dorsal fin sits very far forward & tail flukes are very large -perhaps even disproportionately so. But from the front, it looks good for a generic Stenella sp.

If it's a clyme or a striped dolphin then I feel Safari should label it that and not just "dolphin". Either way, I'll be adding it to my collection and just have it as a non-bottlenose dolphin.
