I haven't collected cetaceans before, but I do think that minke whale looks very nice.
I also saw a Facebook post from Safari today which appeared to be teasing a dog of some kind.

yes, perhaps a Shiba inu:

from Safari:
I spy with my little eye...a new 2022 floof coming soon! It is BARKtastic!

Yup:



Also, updated first post and removed anything that has not been formally announced

I always wanted this breed, because the Japanese companies make them with frequency (yet, I didn't want a gashapon-style dog). For now, this one is a 'maybe'. I may wait to see if anyone who buys it can post a side-by-side with the Kitan Club Nature of Japan figure.

Safari has been doing a good job with these new models, but i side with a lot of people when I say I'd rather the pictures be shared near the end of last year, instead of this PNSO style reveal.

Safari could be teasing the salmon shark  Screenshot_20220427_203042.jpg

it's probably just a marketing prop to highlight the shark; don't expect it to be a new release (and why put a freshwater fish in a scene with a shark...)

I was wondering why they didn't just use a salmon but that would have probably been too obvious.

It's great to finally have a salmon shark available. I never thought I would see the day. I might get two and modify one into a porbeagle.

Thanks all; I'll update the first post when a traditional promo pic becomes available.

This shark is a must-have!

At least the tail keel is better than the great white and mako

Thanks @Shane - you will probably find this to be one of the most popular 2023 figures.

I updated the first post and replaced some of the others with traditional promo pics.

From the inhand images, the preduncle keel is there! Big improvement over the old lamnids Screenshot_20220428_235725.jpg
