Schleich - new for 2015

[Neon-Allo]

Certainly..but I prefer the Safari version .

Yes the safari version is much better, and its actually a personal favorite in my collection for some reason, but I think I jumped the gun on saying that Schleich made one that resembled the Safari models too much.
I agree that it's a very similar sculpted position...I jumped the Megalodon(lol) to soon...

Honest mistake I guess?

Takama, what do you mean by "Klein" when referring to size? Kleinwelka?? If so, about what scale are they -- 1/45?

Klein is what Schleich referred to them as. Klein is German for little or small, afaik.

Sorry tyrantqueen, I just now saw this. I actually forgot I asked the question. LOL! So, thank you late for the clarification. I think I do recall something about their smaller figures being called something different. It's just been so long since I seriously and consistently collected their line.

the wing finger on the new pterosaur I think is way too short.

I think that's the perspective of the photo

[docronnie]

I seem to like that Kentro.  Might get it. 

[Rathalosaurus]

Me too. But the other are crap. Especially the Spino.
Why Schleich!?

Dinosaur Cave set

I want the cave for the cave, raptors, and baby quezalqotalus

[Takama]

Im really disappointed that they wont release those little dinos on there own.  There clearly there best, yet they force us to pay big bucks for a bunch of scenery items while were only interested in the animals

[CityRaptor]

So the Raptor hunts for what actually looks like a decent figure of the Jurassic Park Compy.

It's also pretty terrible that the Cave set will cost nearly 50 euros...

And it seems that they reduced the number of sets from the ones announced.

[tyrantqueen]

Yay anachronism

Actually I like the scenery over the animals. But given my low personal opinion of Schleich in general, that's not saying much.

[Gwangi]

Those little Velociraptors are just the worst, as if Schleich could do any worse! I actually like the little feathered theropods though.

[Hermes888]

Why can't they just release those feathered theropods individually? I don't want the cave.

How much are the sets going for?

[Concavenator]

Will those little dromaeosaurs be sold separately?

[CityRaptor]

Unlikely. They are likely what Schleich calls Drivers. Those are exclusive to sets.

Those little Velociraptors are just the worst, as if Schleich could do any worse!

Like I said, I don't think those are supposed to be Velociraptors. They look a lot like the Lost World Compsognathus.

So either sidekicks or prey.  Or in a funny twist, the Velociraptor gets hunt by them!

Why can't they just release those feathered theropods individually? I don't want the cave.

How much are the sets going for?

Hunting Velociraptor 19,99 €
Home of the Herbivore 24,99 €
Cave Set 49,99 €

[Gwangi]

You could be right but I was under the impression the set was supposed to represent a pack of Velociraptor. And I'm surprised that they would choose another theropod as the prey rather than an herbivore. Regardless, they look awful and if you can't tell what they're supposed to be than that just shows another failure of Schleich's part. It's not like Schleich never made a Velociraptor that didn't look like Velociraptor.

[sauroid]

is that macaw colored theropod supposed to be an Archaeopteryx?

[CityRaptor]

Seems like it. Also looks like the other feathered Theropod has long feathers on its hindlegs, so it is presumbly Microraptor.

I know. I think the new Mini Velociraptor is especially bad.

Also looks like the other feathered Theropod has long feathers on its hindlegs, so it is presumbly Microraptor.

and at first glance, looks strikingly similar to WWD 3D's mini Troodon figure

[SpartanSquat]

I hope they will sold separatly, I really like Microraptor and Archaeopteryx. I think there are 2 missing sets, according to the info.

[CityRaptor]

Yes, a bigger Set involving the cave and a watering hole. Seems like Schleich also used those sets, with other figures, for Wildlife, therefore the watering hole should look like this:

True. And the Archaeopteryx is in the very same style.
