An additional small update. A few more 123 animals came in, plus I added some set numbers and found 2 new variants to add.

The way I keep track of updates is that I keep a running list of every set that I see mentioned that has an animal in it, or might have. I go back periodically and run through the list on PlaymoDB to see if set instructions or other sources have turned up definite info. Set instrctions are primary source so I always prefer those first, after that I will use info that turns up on PlaymoDB from other sources, and last I use observation. Observation is where I guess which specific animal it is based on how it looks in available photos. Some sets just never have instructions or confirmed info so about once a year I go through the back list of sets and finally add them using observation. I've just done that for almost everything left through 2020 releases. Most were pretty straight forward but as is often the case there was a surprise.

While doing the Greek Play and Give Aesops Fables set 70621 I found two new variations. One I had been aware of - the tortoise. It's made up of the dark grey body 30 26 1150 with the brown shell 30 24 7783.  I had the parts available so just made one up and added it.

Continuing on with that set the rest of the animals were obvious known ones except the wolf. There have been so many open mouth wolves in every color of grey that I just assumed this closed mouth wolf was there. Turns out not though, the only version this dark in closed mouth seen before had red eyes. So I have added a page for this one now

I was wanting the current Play and Give Greek Revolution set anyway, so ordered that and Aesop together. So a real photo of this wolf will be turning up eventually and I can confirm the actual color.

The one other new addition is thanks to Indianna at PlaymoFriends who confirmed for me that the pink coral in 70368 is in fact a darker color than previously seen, i was aware it had a new part number. Sadly not all new part numbers correspond to actual changes in the product for some reason. For example butterflies have 2 part numbers, with a newer number replacing the old number but no observable differences between the two when I hold them next to one another in my hand.

The coral has been split off to it's own page as Coral Pink 3 now

The other new additions were photos of the animals from 123 set 70267

They are a nice little batch.

That's it for this small update.

Figures pages have been updated also this week, I will post about that later.
