Recent acquisitions

My Naturalism figures are genuine, and neither the boxes they came in, or the figures themselves, were marked.

Okay, judging from the package, the fox was packaged by Uunysaur (also the store) but very likely from the same factory

I got the first 2024 Papo's at last. Guinea fowl and white peacock, which are good enough (the fowl head could be better), and the capuchin which I love!
I was really surprised no other brand has done one (also, I'm sure we will see one or two coming next year from Schleich, CollectA or others). It's smaller than expected (which is good for me) and the material is softer than for the rest of Papo figures. Really like it. And the baby...

In a previous batch I didn't metioned I also got the Safari 2023 novelties, that only now have reached Spain: the type D orca (good, but a bit smaller than expected, and the beautiful eye on the promo pic is achieved in my model); the grey parrot, which is better than expected in terms of the detail of feathers and the silky shark which doesn't say anything to me but it's a new species and good enough!

New samples from Happy Hen Toys. The Haolonggood Allo looks pretty nice - but Rebor's Lonesome George is the real showpiece. He's a big one!

[EpicRaptorMan]

How big is that lonesome George?

How big is that lonesome George?

About 7 inches tall at the head! It's easily one of the largest extant- er, recently extinct animal figurines in my collection.

Another box from Happy Hen Toys! I'm most impressed by the shipping speed.
I placed this order both out of gratitude and to acquire some complimentary pieces for the eventual reviews.

Wonderful JimoAi. Was the selectin random? Scale-based?

OK, so finally I did it...
With this I only miss the Southland Replicas thylacoleo to complete my collection (if anyone has one, I'm VERY interested...)

I think the only newcomers now will be new launches






I was talking about the snail, of course

did you get the whale recently or was it with you for a long time

[AnimalToyForum]

Awesome. But I feel that display would look even better with the addition of quail figure.

Sorry, what's a quail figure?

An animal that rhymes with whale and snail.

A very quick story.  I finally got a new order and shipped it to my new house, which is in the city... In the course of about 15 minutes, the package, which contained two CollectA horses, the CollectA Angelshark, Safari Silky Shark, and a few other figures, was stolen from my front steps, opened, rummaged through, and returned to my steps.  Guess the thief didn't want those figures.         Thankfully, I got all the figures I ordered, so that was a win.  I just need to find a safer location for deliveries it appears....

That's scary.  I'm glad you got your figures but I'm sorry that happened to you, I'm not sure what I'd do if that happened honestly

Weird. Well, at least you got yours back. I had a package stolen when I lived in Atlanta that had a rare chase figure. Mine was not returned.

My current apartment in SLC is...(knock on wood) more secure and we have a Parcel Pending service (which, currently is under construction as I write...)

K&M spiny eel, Determined Productions moonfish, Atlantis Paradise Island clown triggerfish and a large black and blue fish I don't know the brand or species of
