Has anyone ever come across the stuffed animals produced by a company named Hansa Toy? I just found out about these:

http://www.hansatoy.info/Extinct/ExtinctPages.html

The dinosaurs are mostly pretty bad, but some of the other prehistoric creatures are fabulous (in terms of stuffed toys at least). I bet they're pretty expensive, given their size and apparent quality.

Here's a few samples:



Smilodon



Thylacine



Inostrancevia



Archaeopteryx



Pteranodon



Brontosaurus



Mamenchisaurus



Futabasaurus



Feathered T-Rex

Brontosaurus? Really? And it doesn't even look like one.

And yeah, I didn't look at prices, but Hansa is a very expensive company at the best of times.

I like the mammals and the thylacine best, the dinosaurs didnt got that good, especially the T.rex.
Taking dinosaurs of this islandis the worst idea in the long, sad story of bad ideas

I think I shared that Futabasaurus with Adam awhile back.  It and the mammals aren't bad really..everything else is unfortunately a wash.

I love that Inostrancevia! It's so cute!  ^-^
The mammals are pretty good,as well as the Futabasaurus,but the dinosaurs... *yuck*

The only time I saw Hansa stuffed animals was when I was in Australia (Melbourne) and Singapore.

Were they anywhere near affordable there?

[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

I've always found their animals nice-looking, but I haven't seen the dinosaurs until quite recently. Their mammoth, I think, is the best soft toy I've seen, though.

They are more expensive than other plush stuffed toy lines but they do have some interesting figures. 

The figures come in at least two sizes. Small was about 10inch/25cm in height and larger size was about 2x the smaller ones.

Small figures were about 30-45 Australian dollars per. Larger ones were about twice as much.

In Singapore they were about half again as expensive.

I read a funny article about toys for rich kids, and these stuffed animals made the list.

I wanted to price some of them on amazon, and when I did I was HOLLY SH :o

I might get me a smaller one then, if I come across these at all of course.

Especially with cats around. True that.
