Several extant animal figures have quietly appeared in PNSO's Amazon shop.

One series is called "Living Animal Toys" and includes:
04 young African elephant
05 young hippopotamus
06 young polar bear
07 young(?) fennec fox
08 white rhinoceros
09 hippopotamus
10 koala
11 panda
12 meerkat
13 Siamese cat
14 seal
15 beluga

The numbering suggests more to come. Here's the fennec:


Also available are 12 figures representing animals of the Chinese zodiac. They all seem to be babies. Here's the dragon for example:


And the pig:

Oceania box set:


All except the zodiac animals are available at MiniZoo: https://www.minizoo.com.au/pnso/

Good to see PNSO are still active on the animal figure front.  8)

A few new PNSO animals have appeared: a koala, a panda, a Siamese cat, and a meerkat. The meerkat looks particularly nice.

I put the meercat into the forum title banner.

Excellent achievement, the first one to rival Papo's one.

AnimalToyForum

Much bigger than Papo's version though, right?

Another new one: a beluga

The level of detail in this beluga is amazing and much bettern than the belugas of any major brand. Somebody know the size of this piece, and if it's easy to get unexpensive from any online store?

Does Amazon ship to Spain?
The Beluga is available on Amazon. Length is listed as 7.9 inches.

Isidro

Oh, thanks, that's 20 cm. Same size than my CollectA orca, so slightly too big... but I can't resist, is so well done!
Thanks for the link. I will keep it in my wished list. The price is a bit too high, but I will think in it.

Another new one! A seal, although I can't tell which species. Harbor seal maybe?

@Isidro, the Favorite website gives the length of the Beluga at 16.8 cm. or 6.6 inches, slightly smaller than shown on Amazon.
EDIT: The PNSO Beluga appears to be better detailed than the Favorite model.

The Favorite beluga on your link is not the same model, hence the difference in size. What I want is the PNSO model because of the exquisite detail (wrinks in the neck, around eyes, etc and those perfectly made eyes, pectoral fins, and muscles of the body). Plus, the Favorite animals are soft, and my collection is made of hard plastic animals. I don't want just any beluga, but a perfectly made one :)
