More affordable set of the Kenner fish:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/392996057536?hash=item5b8063f1c0:g:iT0AAOSwwlNfmyu~

contains pufferfish, angelfish, dolphin and crab

[bmathison1972]

Thanks @NSD Bashe - I snatched it up, as that's a much better purple shore crab than the Safari Wild Wraps version!!! Now, let's see if I can get a name on the angelfish...

EDIT: Magestic angelfish (Pomacanthus navarchus)?

I think I'll do a Blog review of the set when it comes in.

I just spotted this Mojo Quagga on eBay:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/155482675629

I just received my "Schleich-mold knock-offs" today (mare and foal; will post pics tomorrow), and I'm happy with them. They would honestly pair really well with the Mojo as a family. Even the paint application and quality look identical to me. So if someone needs this quagga for their collection, they are welcome to it. The seller is located in Italy, and if you live in the US or Canada, their description says to just contact them first for shipping info. Otherwise, it seems as though they ship worldwide.

Thanks. Luckily I have it. Among the Smithsonian insects, I only need 1 of the 3 bumble bees

Trendmasters osprey
Too stylized for me, but the species is so rarely made:

I saw that figure in a junk store once, along with several of those Trendmasters. I really want an osprey but decided not to get it. Someone has to make one eventually. You would think such an impressive and interesting bird with a worldwide distribution would get made more often.

My favorite bird, thank you!! Now I just have the K&M, PV and Club Earth ones to track down.

Oh yes! I was unaware of this figure since it's not even on the Toy Animal Wiki. I'm very grateful to you!

Thank goodness I restrict my collecting of deep sea fish to plastic.

[NSD Bashe]

majority of mine are plastic but I have a few exceptions

Hey! I had that one as a kid! I recently reviewed the AAA dolphin of the same size.

[Saarlooswolfhound]

I thought of you when I saw it!

So tell me... are these solid AAA rubber? or hollow? If its solid you coule clock someone with these- forget the baseball bat!
