I have two work trips this week, so I didn't think I would post soon. However, I forgot I had prepared this spinifex pigeon figure review back in November (I put it on the back burner when I did a turkey for Thanksgiving). So, I threw this up quick since it has been a few days since we have had a post and I had it handy:

I'll be sending you a new one tomorrow morning as usual.

I put one up yesterday afternoon..http://animaltoyforum.com/blog/2020/02/02/cool-reptiles-bucket-cog-ltd-part-1/

It's a two-parter. Because otherwise it would get too long!

They're still less than super. But more unique. Should be sometime tomorrow, I scheduled it.

Finally I know where this set came from! I've had one since I was very young, and also an ocean set sold alongside that had some surprisingly good deep sea fish.

I used to have the sea set as well. Still have the viperfish. I didn't care for a lot of them as many didn't stand well.

There were also dinos, cats and horses. Probably others that I didn't have.

A lot of mine simply didn't stand at all. I distinctly remember a butterfly fish that wasn't even conceptually capable of standing up.

That's the set alright. I recall a Mola as well, but they're always kind of tippy

I like how all the ATB's cat reviews are in order from smallest to biggest:

Pallas cat<Canada lynx<Jaguar<African lion<Siberian tiger.

Schleich Indian rhinoceros: http://animaltoyforum.com/blog/2020/02/09/indian-rhinoceros-schleich/

One of the fun things about writing these reviews is researching the subject and learning new things about it. Until I started on this one, I had no idea that the Indian rhino fights with its fangs instead of its horn.

I never knew this either @suspsy It's really interesting. 
Don't I take long uploading photos!

Yes, one of the exciting things about getting a figure is learning about the species it represents!

thanks Sean! I added 'Animal Kaiser' as a category, since the potential for getting more from this line is probably good.

By the way, so far this month only myself, @sbell and @suspsy have posted! Hope there is more variety to come soon :)

That's definitely true. I have quite a variety!
