Wonderful thanks! I was going to email you this weekend to nudge you for another review LOL. :-D

I didn't know japonica was sunk as a subspecies of chinensis; I'll have to update my database this weekend, too.

I kinda felt that nudge

Suspsy's next Guest Review, the 2011 CollectA octopus. Funny, I received this exact same figure in the mail, the very day he sent his review in!

Suspsy's next 'guest' review, the platypus by Southlands Replicas: http://animaltoyforum.com/blog/2019/10/24/platypus-southlands-replicas/

[Isidro]

Very nice, this platypus has been on my wishlist since ages, as it's the only one with a decent sice in the trade, all the other platypus from other brands are ginormous.

Yeah, before this figure was released, I had been using the Mojo Fun figure as my representative figure for that reason, but even it's too big (not to mention having quite bad colours). Now I desperately need to acquire the Southlands version.

Anyway, my second review: http://animaltoyforum.com/blog/2019/10/27/common-cuckoo-birdtales-series-2-by-kaiyodo/

[bmathison1972]

Wonderful review, Badger. Our first Birdtales figure!

I added 'Cuckoos' as a category since birds have at least ordinal-level breakdown. We might want to consider adding 'Birdtales' to as there is the potential for more and they don't fall within the realm of Chocoegg, Choco Q, CapsuleQ

Yeah, I think you should add either 'Birdtales' or 'Bottlecap' to the categories for this entry.

Bottlecap (Bottlecap Series; Bottlecap Lines) could be good, as it will cover many of the Aquatales sets (Aquatales would be deserving of its own, however), Souvenirs Entomologiques, and possible others!
