Schleich Action Figures



I've walked past Schleich Action Figures while perusing Target, but didn't have any personal experience with the company until recently when a little box showed up on my doorstep with a variety of animal figures inside: a tortoise, cow, pig, chicken, bear, and more!

Then my children started squealing, grabbed them all, and left me with nothing. But ever since they arrived one of our kids has been walking around with them every day. Now the animals go to bed with one child while another carry them around in her purse. Or the animals sit on the table and stare at me during meal times. I can say that I am becoming much more acquainted with the company.

"The design of our products is as realistic and naturalistic as possible. This enables children to experience the large variety of nature - from domestic animals on a farm to wild animals in the jungle."

If you haven't seen their figures before, let me just tell you they are beautiful and quality products! The ones that we received have even brought about some fun questions from our kids since they are {ahem}anatomically correct. Each piece that Schleich creates:
  • comes with the Schleich tag featuring the company's logo
  • is in compliance with all relevant safety regulations
  • is meticulously hand painted
  • features true-to-life modeling
Schleich carries a large variety of figures: humans, farm, jungle, wild and domestic animals and also imaginative play such as knights, smurfs, elves, American frontier and dinosaurs. We are so impressed with their products that we ordered this great piece for our boys. There will be some excited little boys in this house! {And a little p.s. to any grandparents reading this...we'll need some knights to go along with the castle!}.



Schleich's products are available from online retailers such as Amazon and locally at Target, Tractor Supply and smaller toy stores. Prices for the figures start under $2 and go up, depending on the item. Start making your lists - your kids will love them!

  3. I haven't been to your blog in a little while; I love the new look. We just got a cow the other day at target and Zach wanted to know all about the utter.

  4. I have passed these several times at Target. Sammy is very interesting all animals and loves to play with the few we have by some different companies. I will have to get some of these for his birthday next month :-)
