Mini Safari


I've been a fan of Safari Ltd for quote some time, so I was thrilled when they asked me to preview some new 2016 products. Safari knows that I work with miniatures, especially their "Good Luck Minis" line, so they shared a few samples and I did up a scene in my Lundby Stockholm.






Can you spot the mammoth, harp seal, zebra, and heart? Each piece is about the size of a nickel and is painted by hand for realistic detail. The pieces are incredibly sturdy and add a great amount of visual interest for small-scale scenes.






You can easily scroll through the Safari line on Amazon, and also check out their blog for more insider detail.

Go wild!

The time it took me: 35 minutes

    I haven't seen the little nickel sized ones. Those are the perfect size!

    I love the harp seal, with his all white fur. I've tried to find sites where you can buy them individually, but so far, no luck. I'd wait a few months. Did you keep the minis after you previewed them?

      Hello! You can get the harp seal as part of this TOOB set, available directly through Safari: https://www.safariltd.com/products/view/toobs-arctic-figurines-681604. Yes, I was able to keep the minis after I previewed them. Their products are of a very high quality!

      I meant the Good Luck Mini Harp Seal, not the TOOB one. I collect smaller stuff and I mean like tiny things in general.

    Ooh, I didn't know they were by Safari !! I understand better why they are so similar to the bigger ones now... I found these individually in a store in town in 2014 and I got the ones I had as toys already as I had an idea of photos mainly but thought they would do perfect miniature bedroom toys too... Mine all live in a showcase on my desk at present... (adding photos on Flickr :0) https://www.flickr.com/photos/47055668@N02/? )
