That's a really impressive collection! It must have taken quite some time :>

Actually, just a year or so, haha
I regularly treat myself to new toys
Most of this was bought at second-hand stores, so it didn't cost much money 😊

That's great, I'm glad it makes you happy! Things don't have to expensive to be something you love :> Hope the collection keeps growing!

thankieeee! 🫶🏻

Nice! Especially buying second-hand ones - and finding some in the first place!

If you ever find some by a brand called 'Papo': They actually make multiple very neat tiger figurines, like this one.

Their animal figurines are really great! Very realistic. I've never been disappointed by figurines with crossed eyes, awkward proportions or colours.

They make nice drawing references, too. 😉

Oh yeah, I've heard of Papo and Schleich too! Actually, it's very expensive here, even second-hand.

But I try to buy inexpensive figures and repaint them to suit my taste, haha
Here's an example

It seems the link to the example doesn't work for some reason... I think I'll upload examples of my recolors to the gallery later!!

Thanks for the reply.

Interesting, repainting? I'll take a look at your repaints once you post them. As far as I remember, recoloring some figurines was difficult because the color just wouldn't stick.

I uploaded three of my custom repaints to my gallery!

I saw them. Really neat!

In my opinion, most of the original paint jobs on these figures look bad. Probably because the are not pricey and kids toys anyway.

You really did some very good improvements there and made them look like real tigers! 😊

Thank you for the kind words and many comments 🥰

My pleasure. Thanks for sharing your images!
