Beautiful photographs of a beautiful figure, Postsaurischian  8)

I'll probably create a separate CollectA Farm Life board as it is a distinct line...

Wow, the feathers are superbly detailed! :) Catalogue photos normally won't capture this. Great photos! :)

It's probably something we'll need for all major companies sooner or later, at the moment we largely focus on the more obscure wild animals but of course domestic animals are welcome, too, and they are very popular among many collectors. :)

Mute swam is very beautiful. New swam of Schleich is very beautiful to  ^-^.

One of my favourite swan figures pictured wonderfully. Thank you for uploading these.  :D
I'm just wondering how large it is? Is it a similar size as Schleich's swans?   :-[

I love this CollectA figure, but I agree with Jetoar: The older Schleich figure is just wonderful; my all-time favorite Mute Swan.

It's so nice that everybody can choose favorite one :D ;) I only wait for more species of swans in the toy market, Trumpeter swan or Whooper swan figures would be awesome :D

Yes! I definetly agree there - the world is filled with so many beautiful swans, but we just need figure companies to branch out a little. The only non-mute swans I know of are the Kaiyodo Whooper and Papo's black swan.

One of the cutest figures we found. a little swimming Mallard Duck, complete with some transparent plastic to represent water.









Though I did not know that Mallards can be domesticated (Schelich lists this as a Farm animal in the catalogue), I thought they were strictly wild animals.

Jetoar

Nice, I think that the clear base is a good point of this figure  ^-^.

One of the more unique figures that I seen from the company. Its part of the farm line, but like the peacock and Mallard its also found in the wild, so I decided to buy it when I seen it at my local shop.

I am really impressed with the detail on this figure, the feathers are individually sculpted on the wings.

There's also a Graylag Gander, but since it has no Sexual differences, I have no plans on getting it.

Nicely detailed wings! And the paint job looks quite good, too. :)

It is a wonderful pose, and I'm more and more impressed with this company's attention to detail in their feathered sculpts lately.

Neat!  Now you just need a Konrad Lorenz figure to go with it!
