Vault Tales 299 Run the Set GeoWorld Travel-to-Go Ice Age

So here's a neat little set from GeoWorld that, well, didn't last long. They aren't especially great models, but feature a few animals that you never really see. And a few that you pretty much always do... Clearly not to scale with each other...but it came with a neat playmat.
