Where can you get decent quality toy animals.. not soft ones but like plastic or whatever else they are made out of. I don't want ones that come in a bag and are crap cause the legs bend and break etc.
I saw some in toy world and they range in price from $5 - $15 per animal but I wondered if there were anywhere else |

I have got most of Lukes ones from places like Arthurs Emporium, $2 shop etc. I have never bought the ones in the bags for the same reasons as you said, but the individual ones that you find are fine. We have lots, they live a tough life and still going stong! ------------- Mum to two beautiful kids

| Kmart have them. The really good quality ones from memory I think they are $5-$10 . Also maybe try the $2 shop. I got DD a couple form there and they are heavy plastic stufff and seem to be fine. |

I love the Schliech one. I think they sell them at Toy World and a smaller range at Kmart.
They are awesome and the poor Lion even survived a dog attack which I was impressed with. DS loves them, and although they are pricey I know they will last for my kids and probably grankids also. DS2 has got his hands on them once or twice and they have also survived intense chewing. Heres a link to what they are like http://www.modernbrands.co.nz/brands/schleich.html - Schleich Toys -------------

The Schleich ones are by far the nicest but I also go some in a tube from the Zoo shop. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

The Schleich ones are the ones I saw at toyworld and Daniel wouldn't let go of a couple of cat ones hehe.
I'll have to check out kmart but I've found our kmart can be pretty poor with some types of toys. |

You can get the Schleich ones on sale so you just have to keep your eye out. The Kmart hers only have 10-15 of them whereas the other stores I buy from have nearly the full range and have loyalty cards so get a couple free after buying 8-10 of them. -------------

the schleich ones are great. My parents also brought some brand called Bullyland on Trademe which are quite similar to Schleich but half the price. ------------- Mum to Ella (5) and Tom (2) |
