...and 16 more horses that I will be adding tomorrow.

About these new models, I like the Koala, and it is the first one that really pushes me o buy it.

New Longhorn and Black bulls look pretty well made and more realistic, even if somehow I liked maybe more the old ones, especiallz the black bull.

The new hyppo looks good, too, very carefully painted, even if the close mouth is a less for me.

I like a lot the choice of the Indian rhino, a quite rare species ont he market, while the model is well made but not more than that.

The chimpanzee has a nice expression, even if a bit too much circus sounding to me, not wild life.

New cetaceans look much fatter and rounder than the previous ones, look quite convincing but I think I still like more the previous Blue whale and especially Orca.


The rest, average to poor.

Badger

The only one of these that I think looks better than the previous version is the koala.

The rest of them are easy passes for me.

Hi Rossano, thank you very much for adding these to the ATF! Schleich's quality gets better but I feel like it's the same species over and over.

Interestingly the koala is my favorite too (which is why it should be making it into the 2018 ATF banner lol), and I also like the hippo and rhino.

There is nothing here for me at all...sad.

Even that great white...the newer Safari or CollectA ones are hundreds of times better.

The Koala is a great improvement over their previous incarnation.
