So here’s a few figures connected by being…air breathing vertebrates? Sure, let’s say that. Otherwise they’re very, very different. COG “Cool Reptiles” Green salamander First off, I’m starting with a small salamander figure from a bucket set called Cool Reptiles from COG Ltd. Even though it seems to contain more amphibians than reptiles…anyway, I recentlyContinue reading “Vault Tales 151 ToyTrio Two Salamanders and a Lungfish”

Vault tales 149 – Clades – Salamandroidea
It’s been a while, but here we are with a new Clades post. Since then, I have been reorganizing my database and how the clades are organized. So when this one came up–‘Salamanders’–I realized that I could break that down a little bit. Especially because there are a fair number and this post was goingContinue reading “Vault tales 149 – Clades – Salamandroidea”
Vault Tales 118 ToyTrio Nimravid, Iberian Lynx, Ichthyosaur

Vault tales 109 – Clades – “Stegocephalia”
So we’re back with another ‘clades’ post, and this one is a very unique one, which requires one heck of a caveat! In this case, it is figures labelled as ‘Stegocephalia’ in my collection database–informal labels, not truly clades. If I was going to discuss all of the stegocephalians, well, it would cover the entirelyContinue reading “Vault tales 109 – Clades – “Stegocephalia””
