I've found some super old figures from the flea markets for very good prices. For example the Sarajevo Olympics (1984) mascot fox (it's missing the ice hockey stick, but I like it anyway) by Schleich was 50c, and the Schleich Classic pointer was 20c (I didn't even realise it was a Schleich, it's so old that it has a weird logo). Here they are with some other additions:
This white wolf cub and a timber wolf male, both from Safari Vanishing Wild collection, travelled all the way from USA (thank you!). They arrived a while ago already, but for some reason they've been just standing on my table. Now I finally took the photos, added them on the website and moved the figures into my (very crowded) vitrine.
Old cuties from Bullyland and behind them two TOPPS figures. In the same envelope arrived also three surprises: Bullyland elephant and zebra, and an unknown chimpanzee. Individual photos of all of these have been added under Collection.
An unknown (huge) dachshund, Procon Agustinia, TOPPS baby elephant, Toy Major hammerhead shark and an unknown white wolf / arctic fox are from flea markets near my home. Yujin turtle and Kaiyodo tapir are bought from another collector. CollectA wild boar is brand new but missing a tag (I'm glad it's missing, no I don't have to decide if I should take it off).
My first dinosaur, baby brachiosaurus by AAA, was so cute that I had to get it, even though I don't collect dinosaurs. The Chap Mei wolf might be a dire wolf, which would mean that I have already two extinct animals in my collection. Tiny dogs by TOPPS. White shark, dolphin and Dumbo(!!) by Bullyland.
Retired Schleich figures and Bullyland micros added. Check them out.
I'm updating the design of the site, sorry for the mess. I've added third column for the figures and changed some other things as well. Hopefully it will all look nice and pretty later this week. As always, I have many new additions! My favourite of them is this Bullyland dachshund. I have also got so many new elephants that I had to make them their own section here.
Starlite is my first and maybe last horse. I don't have enough space for collecting horses, there are too many! But this one is special :) Made by Schleich in W.Germany in 1983, almost as old as I am. Ring-tailed lemur is by Safari. Least weasel by Kaiyodo. I wonder if any brand has made one in their winter coat..
Other than these, I've added photos of my new Schleich dolphin and Schleich orca calf, and a couple of flea market finds: a dachshund, a beagle and a hyena! |
