Another nine figures, after the 15 from the first part. In case you missed it, the first post featuring the dinosaurs and other Mesozoic animals can be found here.

Vault Tales 211 FigureFrenzy Greek Chimaera, Olenoides, Trilobite, Iguana

So today is going to be...brief. Not a whole lot to say about most of these so it's going to be brief. Not everything in the collection is gold...Two different trilobites so that's unexpected!

It's probably oversized but again, it's also made up. First up, one…

So here we have yet another varied bunch of figures...from a varied bunch of companies. But they're all aquatic, so that's a connection!? FUL Snail (Periwinkle) large and small marine sets They are very small figures, and despite being different sizes they are very similar in appearance. Maybe 1:2 scale or smaller if the species were identifiable. Probably too big to be to scale with The Doctor. First up, a quick look at a pair of FUL marine set figures.…
