Good to see some new posts in .Fabuland. I started adding this theme to my collection last summer. (...) An Owl, Moose and Frog would be great. I would also like to see: Rhinoceros Wolf (could also be used for some breeds of dog) Badger Tiger (...) (21 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)

(...) Drat you Ken! Drat you to Heck! What a great idea...and I think I could do it with some of what I have here already...hrmmmm. We could make this a "thing" like the moonbase modules and castle marketplace...see if we couldn't all come up with (...) (21 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)

(...) My preferences would be an owl, (Monty) moose, (Simon) squirrel, kangaroo and also a rhinoceros would be nice. I think the necks of the giraffe and ostrich would be to long to make a nice head. Also a tiger might be nice, but I wander how much (...) (21 years ago, 11-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)

(...) The owl, moose, and squirrel seem the most likely to be produced. The neck of the giraffe and ostrich would be a problem and it might be hard to make a kangaroo that was noticeably different from the rabbits. The one I'd most like to see is (...) (21 years ago, 11-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)

(...) Don't know why, but the fact that these two animals kept being lumped together just made me giggle. I just keep hearing "moose and squirrel" in the voice of Boris from Rocky and Bullwinkle. Matt (21 years ago, 12-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)

(...) size? (...) My problem with the giraffe and the ostrich is that there indeed has to be some neck. It doesn't have to be too large, but it should be visible. The giraffe might still be recognisable without neck by using a yellow color and brown (...) (21 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.fabuland)
