Ok, the list is already quite long and we've still got at least a few more Collecta figures to go. 

[bmathison1972]

@Arctinus - a lot of these are 2023, but you put them in 'New for 2024'. The Safari great grey owl, elk, Arctic fox, and puma have already been released, and the silky shark should be out in November, I believe (along with the African grey parrot)

EDIT: the elk isn't available yet, sorry

[NSD Bashe]

So far the Schleich hyacinth macaw, to add to my small army of hyacinth macaw figures (and most probably the Safari African grey parrot, though that one's listed as this year)

Also CollectA Cuttlefish

[Arctinus]

Oh, didn't realise they were already out, I thought they were due to be released in 2024? I can only see the okapi and anaconda being available in the shop I usually order them from. I'll put them in the 2023 thread then. 

[bmathison1972]

Updated my post with Papo and Collecta, to-date. Unless CollectA comes out swinging next week, looks like a much more quiet year for me. Which, honestly, I'd be happy for. As of now, CollectA and Papo are both way down in anticipated purchases (and some I am planning on are replacements)

[SerAndrew]

Updated as well.
As for me, despite CollectA is not so interesting so far (let's see the two leaked prehistoric animals, placerias is a definite YES and the megatherium can be paired with the SR's), I'll probably be getting a lot of Papo's.
Plus two Schleich's and last year it was only one.

- Safari Ltd Type D orca

For me currently. Unfortunately, looks like I'll be skipping the big 4 for next year due to nothing catching my eye

Yes:

Bandai Diamond freshwater ray (replacing Kaiyodo)

Bandai Football fish (replacement)

CollectA placerias

Maybe:

Papo Mako shark (if surpasses the Toymany figure in accuracy, size and quality esp if it is metallic)

Bandai Goblin shark (replaces collectA if big enough)

[bmathison1972]

OK, my Schleich, Papo, and CollectA are set. I don't anticipate any of those lists growing (in fact, Schleich may shrink)

[Gwangi]

I can't participate in these threads because I never know what I'm buying ahead of time. I know which models I want but every year I end up buying a mix of new and past releases. 

[bmathison1972]

but that's exactly what this thread is, what you want to buy LOL. Just remove the ones you don't end up getting (that's what I do).

[JimoAi]

looks like a sad 2024 for me when it comes to animals. Looks like more money goes to SpongeBob and splatoon merch for me

[EpicRaptorMan]

@JimoAi you collect SpongeBob stuff?

[JimoAi]

@JimoAi you collect SpongeBob stuff?

yep, am a huge fan of the show. Currently waiting for Super7's ultimates wave 2 to be out

[bmathison1972]

well...SpongeBob is...an animal     

[Koifish]

So far, the figures I want the most revealed for 2024 are from Eikoh Minatureplanet. But other than that...

Papo:
African Lion (I'm content with my Schleich pair, but depending on the size, I wouldn't mind having one to represent another subspecies, like the Barbary for instance)
Clouded Leopard
Eagle owl
Albino peacock
Scarlet Ibis
Mountain goat
African porcupine

Papo maybe's (depends on their size):
Mako Shark (unless Safari has a better one)
Caiman
Poison Dart frog
Florida red-eared slider
Iguana
Musk ox
Moose cow

Collecta:
Giant anteater
Alpine ibex
Elk (maybe)
Proboscis monkey (depends on size)

Mojo:
Puffin (depends on how it looks in person, unless there is a better puffin)

Eikoh Minatureplanet:
lion cub
Rockhopper penguin
Mongoose
Sand cat
Tortoise
Rattlesnake (maybe)
Marine Iguana
Monkey

[bmathison1972]

@Koifish - just my personal opinion:

for the mako shark, either Safari or CollectA would be better. They have their own issues, but the promo pics of this Papo version looks like a modified GWS!

For the puffin, either Papo or CollectA's recent appear to be better, based on these promo pics (that being said, the Mojo announcement is a fairly nice puffin).
