Wow, loads of great stuff in this thread. Many of them I haven't seen before, and that's saying somthing. I have all of the Schleich ones of course, but not much else. If someone were going to sculpt some prehistoric types it would be nice to see some of the fanged deer done, they've shown up in association with the rhinoceros in North America. The only living species are all from Asia these days. Where is that Thylacine from? The Starlux and Yowies iare the only ones I had seen before. Some assorted Artiodactyls: I think it is a cheap version made by a company like FUL Toys--sort of a knock-off of the Club Earth one.

here is a photo of a collection of Starlux antelopes and other figures that was sent to me to use as reference for sculpting these type of figures- thought it was worth sharing here-

I have to look it up and report back....

One in France and it's not me... I only missed the sable and the european bison on this pic.

Ditto. But frankly, I just want most of Boki's collection. Ungulates are among my most favourite animals.

Absolutely lovely sculpt! Do we see the beginning of a new extant animals line? And it's also a good choice, I never understood why gemsbok figures are that rare since they are so spectacular animals.

I was thinking about sculpting a dino the other day, I'm a little stuck about what to make though, it would have to be something small I think, to start. Thank you Niroot, I'll let you know when I make moulds from the Gemsbok

That's CollectA, fantastic model! thank you so much! now i can't find a shop where they would have international shipping costs ready, every shop would have to be contacted to get the shipping cost... You don't happen to know where i could purchase one without first contacting the merchant first? (of course i'll do that if it's the only choice available)

The bongo that everyone is ooo-ing over, is that the kaiyodo one?
Also, I definitely want that gemsbok if you make copies. Please make a bongo also ;D Not enough of those either.
