Hello everybody, I'm from Germany. I hope you understand my English; I haven't used it much for years. When I was a child, my sister and I collected many of the 'Precious Puppies', 'Puppy in my pocket' and 'Baby Wild Animals'. I still don't know why, but when we moved into a new home, my Mom gave our collection away, because we're already grown up.  Now I wanna collect them again and I already bought a dozen of dogs on eBay, but there are no Baby Wild Animals on eBay or elsewhere in Europe, and most sellers in the US wouldn't even ship to Germany. Most important for me is just one: Crabby, the baby seal of the 'Baby Wild Animals' series. He was my favorite one and kind of my lucky charm. But it seems like there no single one anywhere. Is there someone who would sell this one? Other favorites missing: Wild Animals: Teeny, the hippopotamusTeddy, the pandaPuppies: Merlin, the dark brown Labrador RetrieverJemma, the Border Collie (as a surprise for my little sister)Zaney, the Basset HoundI have nothing for trade yet, only a few Puppies... so it whould be great if someone would like to sell or just give them away; i'll also pay for the shipment. |

So I'm getting these two puppies in the next few days, nice.  I've looked into the sale threads; no one seems to have some of the Baby Wild Animals? I also wrote to Topps in Germany, but they couldn't help me getting more of these figurines. |

Hello sorsha and thank you very much. I'm just at the beginnig of my new collection, but these ones have always been my favorites and it seems very hard to find them online. As I said, Crabby was my lucky charm. So cute! <3 May I ask you if you own this one? I've never had many of the Wild Animals, but I'd also be interested in other ones. I could get a couple of them by a german seller on ebay, but first I was looking for the "best" ones.  |

Sadly I do not have an extra of Crabby I might be purchasing a lot that has him in it though, in which case he'd be all yours! I only need 4 figures and cards to complete my set x) The extras I have right now are: 1. Brownie the Brown Bear (2) + habitat card 3. Fuzzy the Koala. 9. Bizzy the Sea Otter. 12. Teddy the Panda Bear. 15. Scamper the tiger + habitat card 16. Strider the Zebra + habitat card 20. Puppy the Prairie Dog + habitat card (card is damaged- came that way fresh out of package!) Family Album 1-6 (consists of Brownie, Pom Pom, Fuzzy, Sprout, Knuckles and Crabby) Family Album 13-18 (Consists of Posy, Bandit, Scamper, Strider, Reynard, and Snowflake) I'm also pretty sure I have an extra of Lightfoot the deer somewhere. Hm. |

Not so bad. There's still an US eBay seller who offers a collection which includes two of them. But including shipping costs and customs duties, it's getting expensive for me. Still hesitating... I would love to buy Teddy and Puppy from you soon. <3 I don't even need the cards. Could you keep these ones for a while and I'll tell you when I would like to buy from you? I don't know the family albums, what is that? |

I will set Teddy and Puppy aside for you The family albums are little pamphlets that include a picture and information about each of the animals. There are 4 albums in total that go through the animals 1-6, 7-12, 13-18, and 19-24. I can't find a full picture right now, and I'm getting ready for work, but they are like this but with 3 animals on each side of the pamphlet. I can add a better picture when I get home if no one beats me to it |

Sabrina I have just purchased a lot that has Crabby in it. I have put him on hold for you for now. I have also posted a for sale thread listing everything else I have available right now. Feel free to take a look to see if there is anything else you need |
