Good luck mini – Fauna Figures

FigureFrenzy 286 Tree frog, Owl, Bat-eared fox, Manta ray

We're going to go through a bunch of mini-size figures this week! A good look at how many companies have actually made these tiny-size figures! With one exception, most of these figures are sized well for scenes and dioramas with more traditionally larger figures. In keeping with the theme, I'll keep it short (there's only so much to say...) Safari Ltd Good Luck Minis Red-Eye Tree Frog A tiny little Red-eye Tree Frog. Which looks pretty good, if a little…

Vault Tales 252 FigureFrenzy Japanese AND Grey Wolf, Snow Leopard, Polar bear, Sea Lion

Today we'll look at a number of carnivoran figures, a popular source of inspiration for animal figure companies. Of course, not all companies are equal, and this means the figures range widely in quality...most of these ones are at least decent...most of them. Ausini Grey wolf It's a very tiny wolf, probably meant to represent a Grey wolf. Based on the heavy build it appears to be one of the larger subspecies. It's about a 1:50 scale figure. Yeah. Most…

Vault Tales 225 FigureFrenzy Camel, Carnotaurus, Mosasaurus, Sarcosuchus, Alligator

Lots of reptiles today, and a single tiny mammal! Some prehistoric, some modern. A few are collectable...some are just kind of there...! Lots of 'mini' figures! Ausini Bactrian Camel A tiny little Bactrian camel from the Ausini mini series. It's a pretty basic figure...around 1:130, so that guy there is a little too big! Or the camel is a small one. We're going to start with a little figure from the Ausini set again! Once again, a fairly recognizable animal…

Here we are with another Figure Frenzy! A bunch of small bites for a bunch of small figures! Schleich minis Coati One of very few Coati figures made. In a tiny, monochromatic form. It's about 1:24 scale, which works well with the ranger there. First up, we have a figure from back when Schleich was really doing some interesting things. Like this model, a small, rubber figure as part of their mini line. It was a pretty broad range of…

Vault Tales 159 ToyTrio Achaeon, Ladybug, Placerias

We've got a wide assortment of figures here--representing 'tiny' in different ways! Some figures are tiny, some figures represent the super tiny, and some figures represent tiny animals fairly closely. It also mean tiny sections...not much to say about little figures sometimes! Yujin NHK Miracle Planet Archaeon It's an Archaeon! Not your normal figure. Getting the scale on something like this is pretty much not going to happen...so why wouldn't The Doctor somehow find a way to get close!? First…
