Ok, so i am in the process of getting some new (old) Schleichs! I do not know how many i will end up with here soon, as i have made a very good connection with someone, but here is what i have so far! The dates i have may not be exact, but should be generally close if not fully correct. These models are from a collection, not a toy box, so they are in new condition with tags! Some of them are duplicates, but it was too good of a deal to pass up!

Click to display
First, i have the 1999 Turkey, who was available from 2000-02.



Next, i got the Roebuck (1995-04).



I also got the Roe Deer Doe (from the next generation of Roe Deer), 2008-?.



Next i got the European Grouse, which is one of the duplicates for me, but i couldn't pass it up as i got it literally for $2! This is a large piece for a bird! It was available from 2000-2002.



The next little guy is the Standing Baby Boar, 2004-?



Now is the Dromedary Camel, from 1992-05.



Then comes the Lion Cub, from 1992-03!



Up next is the Ibex, from 2007-?



And last but not least are my favorites out of the new group, the male in particular! He's just a good sized solid piece and makes me smile to look at! Now i just need to find their baby. Its the male and female Orangutans (Female, 2003-08, Male 2003-05)!





That's all for now...i plan to be back soon with more!default smiley ^)

Ok, just a couple more at the moment...my work client gave me this beauty for my birthday, although it is a duplicate for me, which i don't really mind! Especially since i have so many it can be hard to find one i don't have, as far as new ones in an actual store go.

Its the 2019 Knabstrupper Stallion!



The other one is older...its the 2005 Dog. Yes, just dog lol. He was available from 2005-07. In my collector's book, he is actually included in the small pet section rather than the dogs, which was a separate section. Little guy shares the page with a frog, hamster, and budgies lol. He doesn't even have a breed identification...just a plain little doggy lol. Maybe just a mutt, which many agree is the best "breed" there is!default smiley ^)



I'll be back in the future with more! Going on another trip for a day!default smiley :d

Next is the Toucan (2004-07).



Now for the Red Parrot (2004-08).

You may have been waiting for this part of my haul.default smiley ^)

Click to display
The horses are here!

First up is the Arabian Light (1999-2001). I can't find a better pic that is small enough lol.



Next is the Arabian Dark (1999-2001).



Next is the Pinto Stallion old painting (who i've heard is called the Super Pinto, and is very valuable!) Available only in 1999.



Up next is the Lippizaner Stallion (1992-2001).



Then, i got the Fullblood Horse (1991-1996).



Ok, these three are all related. I got the Godolphin Arab Horse (1985-1995).



The Darley Arabian Horse Spotted (1990-1995).



And finally the (regular i guess) Darley Arabian Horse (1988-1989).



And the last horse i got this go around is not as old as the rest, but its one that had been eluding me for a long time. Its gotta be the right timing, the right price, and in the right condition. So happy to have finally found her! Its the Camargue Mare (2006-2010).



That'll wrap up the horses for this go around, but planning to get more!default smiley *-) Hope you like them!

I personally am all for the animals!default smiley *-)

Here is my last vintage guy...he's a little unique!

Click to display
Ok its the old tiger male, available in the mid 90s. What makes this guy unique, as you can see, is that he is unpainted! So this picture is actually my picture of the exact one i have. He is in some plastic that i am leaving on because i'm wondering if it is original packaging or was put on him by someone later. Just in case, he is still in it. Hope you like him!

I love your diorama! Especially the little pumpkin, lol. I always wanted to make dioramas for my Schleich and Breyer models, but I only even got around to doing one for a little ceramic figurine, which is my profile pic. I’m not good with posting images either, so my little avatar will have to do. I love watching this thread to see all the collections and creations. Keep up the good work everyone!

Hi do someone have a idea of fabric for horse blankets I have began to sew my own blankets for my schleich im doing one for my chestnut what type of color should I do the blanket?

@RosemarE5, I love your profile pic. I started my instagram account almost 4 years ago and I wasn't very good at first but I have gotten much better. I write little stories about each picture I take. It is very therapeutic for me and a way for me to interact with my Schleich as an adult. My whole basement is taken up with diorama material and Schleich as my mom also has an account and does dioramas. I've met some great people in the Schleich community.

I like hunter green on horses, especially chestnuts and bays. I also like burgundy on chestnuts.
