Schleich!
Checking in from my hotel room! Picked up a few schleich today...i will share them when I get home by the way, the year is on the animals belly or leg. Well the year it was created is on the belly...its year of actual release is the following year

cool

Ok i'm home...i'm tired, but these were my finds.
I had hoped to add to my horse collection some new from this year horses. But to my dismay, this was the first time, in my several visits to this store, that they had zero Schleich horses. Even my checkout lady was really surprised when i told her that. Oh well, maybe next time. Anyway, here are my finds: Click to display 2016 Border Collie 2018 Polar Bear 201?(can't quite make out the year but i'm pretty sure its one of the last couple years) Panda Bear 2018 Dolphin 2018 Orca (Killer Whale) And last but not least, whatever this little guy is called...not sure of the name or year. That's it for this round...this was everything they had that i didn't already own!

Ok i took the last one out of its box and the bottom said '14 so it must have been released in '15, if anyone cares lol.
|
Ok, sorry for the triple post, but one more thing...i think the last one is a black mamba in its nest.

My birthday is on Tuesday, I'm hoping I get a Schleich
|
Well happy upcoming birthday guys! Mine is coming up too
I hope you all get some new Schleich! As far as my last post of the Schleich i got...has anybody noticed the unintended theme? All of them, except for the dolphin, are black and white lol. The dolphin itself isn't even too far off the theme, being gray and white I didn't even notice that myself until i was admiring them in the hotel room that night.

That's to funny! I didn't notice until you said something!
|
Does anyone know what the first Schleich figurine was? Just curious
|
I couldn't find a picture i was sure that was it (on Facebook they said it was made of wood, wire and velvet) but it was a bendable doll called Jopo. Interesting.
|
Did any of our recent birthday players get any Schleich as a present or otherwise?

I did! I got the new English thoroughbred mare!

I don't collect, but I was looking through the Naylors Equestrian sales page and they have some up on there ^.^ If you're in the UK it could be worth looking at c:

I did! I got the new English thoroughbred mare! Nice! I like the mare and stallion too but i sure thought the foal was darling I don't collect, but I was looking through the Naylors Equestrian sales page and they have some up on there ^.^ If you're in the UK it could be worth looking at c: I unfortunately am not in the UK myself, but thanks for posting for those of us that may be!

Very nice! That is a cute foal How long have you been collecting?
|
Failed at Schleich tonight...went to the Tractor Supply a couple towns over but they didn't have any new Schleich...which is just as well i guess cause money's tight right now so i haven't been able to order any new (or old) ones.

I have seen all pics from 2019/1-6 and my wishlist is long
|
So i caved a little today...which has been coming on for like the past three days lol. I am making offers on a retired Schleich. Wish me luck!
|
What breed is it and from what year?
|
I was gonna share if and when i get it but i'll spill the details now i guess and share its picture later Its the retired 2004 Shetland foal. I was kinda torn two ways between a couple offers on Ebay. One offer, the one i'm offering on, is the foal and a little bit cheaper. The foal has the tag and looks very good. The second offer, which is a just a little bit more, includes both the foal and its mom. That made it very tempting. It was listed as new, but there were few pictures offered of the product and they didn't have the tags on them. Also, i do already have the mom, with tag. Since money is a little tight right now, and the first foal had the tag, i made an offer on it first. Had i not had the mom already, i definitely would have scooped up the other offer. But it won't hurt my feelings at all if i get declined on my offer and have to buy the set. I don't mind buying duplicates when they come with a new one for almost the same price.
