Safari Ltd. Galapagos Toob - 12 Mini Wildlife Figurines Toy Set for Kids

These are so cute and look so much like the real thing! I bought them for a Galapagos reunion group party, and everybody loved them!

A gift for my 8 year old son, the Galapagos toob from Safari Ltd is definitely a favorite. The animals are durable and high quality with amazing details. Great small size that fits in your hand. Great for imaginative play or however you want. Great value and super cute. We are definitely happy and I would recommend it for all the other toob enthusiasts and collectors out there.

I bought these as teaching aids to help my kids learn about different animals around the world. Concepts are so much easier for them to grasp if they can hold and play with the animals they're leaning about, rather than just reading about them in a book. The animals are well crafted, the pieces have been nicely painted and they're fairly detailed which helps them look more realistic - the turtle has ridges on his shell, the birds have feathers, and the seal has fur. They also have their names on the underside in case you need help identifying what they are. Most of the pieces in this set stand up on their own fairly well, although some are a little wobbly. The only thing I find a little cumbersome is the tube itself. While it's great for storing, it's compact size and odd shape makes it difficult to get the animals in and out - the rope handle also seems to get in the way. Other than the somewhat troublesome tube, the animals in this set are great and I will definitely be buying more of these collections.

Cute and what I expected

I do think these are expensive, However my 5-year-old is very interested in animals. Her current favorite birds are the red-footed and the blue-footed boobies. This company supplies us with the more unusual animals that are not for purchase everywhere.

this was a gift and the child loves it

It came with all the animals which are commonly cited in books on Galapagos. I bought a few books on the theme for my toddler and the animals in this toob match perfectly with the books. Love them!

Cute

It absolutely rocked with our four year old grandson. He has well over 500 of these animals, most from his grandpa…. and he knows, in detail, what each one is, their natural habitat, and some significant detail(s) about each one. There are fantastic books available to couple with these exceptionally detailed figures, and the combination has made for an incredible and enjoyable learning experience.

These toys were a little smaller than I had pictured but they are very nice. Happy with this purchase - bought to go with the " A Blue Footed Booby Named Solly Mcboo " story book.
