[EpicRaptorMan]

There's some good stuff in here. I didn't really like the Kaiyodo Tamandua how the tail/head was removable so I just opted for Mojo's variant.

The Scimitar-horned Oryx is nice as well although I've seen many have trouble standing without toppling over due to the figure being in mid-stride.

[JimoAi]

Or me not including 2022 new releases, anime or pokemon figures:
Favorite co pteranodon
Pnso cretoxyrhina
Kaiyodo japanese scorpion fish
Kaiyodo red coffinfish
Yujin northern snakehead
Kaiyodo marine iguana(or bandai nature library version)

Thanks! I also dislike the Kaiyodo's tamandua visible seams, however I love the position, and the Mojo tamandua is noticeably bigger so I went by the Kaiyodo version whose size is more appropiate for me.

I didn't knew that the oryx had stability problems. Many of these problems are used to be solved by merging figure in boiling water for several seconds, and just after, in cold-ice water. That restores the original position of thin parts (legs, horns) that has bended. But I don't know if it's the case.
Safari LTD Arabian oryx was also in my wishlist at the begin, but I finally had to delete it because of the heavily curved horns in every sample (this species have completely straight horns).

[EpicRaptorMan]

@Isidro yeah the Scimitar-horned Oryx still looks good I have it standing between my Gemsbok and Giant Eland for support.

I also have the:
-African Civet
-Basking Shark
-Albatross
-Painted Dog
-White sided Dolphin
-Coyote
-Cassowary
-Sable Antelope
-Manatee
-Javan Rhino

I'm also getting the Wobbegong in a couple days, albeit a knockoff so we'll see how that is.

All are good, except the Albatross is kinda small wingspan-wise and the beak, feet, wings, are all very frail and bendable.

[Isidro]

Congrats for getting all these The Schleich rhino is Indian, not Javan. There is no Javan rhino available now, and only two brands released acceptable ones in the past, tough not with the premium quality of today's standards.
I remember your wobbegong knockoff. You was lucky for find it.
I disagree in the albatross being too small. Is just the only one of adequate size, the other brands ones are just too ginormous even when representing wandering albatross (bigger than black-browed one). But the weak feet can be a problem unless one display the bird "landing", hanging from a thread.

From this year, all images taken from Toy Animal Wiki went corrupt and didn't show in my message, so I used others found in the net. But I failed to find images to illustrate the Eikoh Indian flying fox, Replica Toy Fish muskellunge, Safari LTD common marmoset and red-handed tamarin from primate TOOB, and Schleich scallop. Anyone have images of these figures, not coming from Toy Animal Wiki, to use here? Thanks!

[widukind]

The Eikoh bull shark i have. I will also look for the muskellunge.


I believe the Angelshark is Happy Kin toys.

[EpicRaptorMan]

The Papo Guanaco is a hard one to come by, I recommend just getting the generic one sold from AliExpress and perform a minor repaint. That's what I did.

[Isidro]

Thanks! Most of the figures I've posted if not all, are hard to find. I didn't knew that a Papo guanaco knock-off was sold in AliExpress. But that's what I did for other figures when I saw them, the result was much cheaper: Papo giant anteater, Schleich wobbegong, Papo red fox, Colorata leopard whipray, Safari LTD TOOB yellowfin tuna, Safari LTD African wild dog, and a Papo goat transformed in a Cretan wild goat.

Do you have a link to the AliExpress guanaco knoc-off?

[EpicRaptorMan]

And here is a thread I made here of the repaint I did. No more panda eye markings: https://animaltoyforum.com/index.php?topic=3023

[Isidro]

That's very useful! Thanks!

[Isidro]

Toy Animal Wiki broken image links works again, so I was able to illustrate again all the missing images of this thread :-)

[sbell]

I'm pretty sure I have lots of the muskellunge to offer you (I'd need to confirm that they're not the tiger muskie, although they're very similar)

But posting it would cost a bloody fortune for a single small figure.

[Isidro]

Thanks Sbell, I've indeed found some time the muskellunge and other Replica Toy Fish for very cheap, about 2€ each, but as you mentioned, with an extremely high shipping costs that made it not worth, for that I don't have it!

Deleted the Safari MBA humpback whale because yesterday I got the Schleich humpback whale. I've prefaired very much the Safari one, as Schleich have a weird very short triangular rostrum, but for the cheap price I got it it was an unique chance.

Added Schleich new bonobo and some others.
