Some more new variations that were missed the last update.

First is this velociraptor that is actually from 2021 in set 70866 a store exclusive in Germany

Also from the same series of exclusives are these two pink rabbits with apparently pink eyes in 70865

Missed from the first half 2022 catalog were this white version of the seated hen in Asterix set 71016

From Specials Plus 70878 the panther is probably a new version, it seems to have yellow eyes?

And missed in Ayuma set 70825 the bat ornament in black

Two new actual animal images provided by Gaetan

The brown sea lion 2 from 70537

and the black rattlesnake

There are a few animals on Animobil from previous Playmobil company partners. I only post actual animal photos from known collectors since many box images are not true to the contents for companies like Antex, and I don't want to violate anyone's copyright. Most are just different color or printing patterns. If you have any of these not seen on Animobil already I would love a true life collector photo from a known source to add to the site. Known variations from Antex include spotted old style dogs in grey, white and black, Western horse style spotting on a tan horse, and a different Indian pony paint. There is a Lyra fish with a hole in it for a hook that is a unique mold. I have only seen box photos though and would love an image of an actual example. The very dark brown cow and calf from Playpeople looks like it may have a matching bull, but again only a box image and no known actual example. There is one Playmobil rarity I haven't managed to get a collector image of, the orange Siemens old style horse. They are out there but are very expensive when rarely seen in online auctions. Still looking for actual photos of the Tribbles from the Enterprise as well. That's too expensive a set for me to get just for recolored pompoms posing as tribbles.

Nuremberg Toy Fair has gone entirely virtual again this year. It is scheduled the first week of February. Hopefully the company will share some good images of second half year sets. There has just been a  mall leak of bad images of the 2022 Advent Calendars and some Novelmore sets so far. They look interesting, and hopefully we will see some of the animal sets at Toy Fair.
