I'm glad I don't want any Schleich next year, I only just got this years pelican a few days ago.
More birds permanently fused to branch's, yay...
Toco Toucan is really spectacular. Well done it Schleich .

Honestly, I can't say that I'm disappointed. My expectations were very low considering Schleich's variety in species. Well, so I can actually be quite happy about the unexpected release of a nice Sloth Bear. Some (not all) of the updated ones look quite good, too.
several of the species seem influenced by the release of the new Jungle Book movie
Schleich birds look shaggy because of attempt to show individual feather barbs, comparing to smooth plumage of real specimens or other brands' figures, which have finer, less deep texturing.
