I have got my hands on the entire first series of the Forgotten Friends line from Yowie, showing many species that have become extinct due to mankind's avarice. While I have the line, I am not sure where to start, so reaching out to the forum to decide what they want to see. Next week will show my one figure from the second wave, but you will decide which of the first I review. Vote up top and have fun!

I would also like to say that this doesn't mean I am not allowing anyone else to review this line. Please do, I am just starting things off. I reserve none of them solely to me.

That's a very sad line isn"t? I guess you are also raising our consciousness by reviewing it, so well done for that.

That is a major reason for it. None of them have been reviewed, so I feel needs doing. Very significant to do, I feel.

Current aquatic third place. Should be interesting!

Very aquatic third place. Should be interesting with the Grayling in the fray!

I wonder if these reviews might belong on the Animal Toy Blog, given that they're all modern fauna. I don't mean necessarily instead of on the DTF, but perhaps in addition?
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

To be perfectly honest, I've been wrestling with that question. Happy for it to go up on both, just think the first should be DTB as, in spite of being modern species, they are extinct.

One more day to vote for what I will be reviewing!
