I got the CollectionsEtc catalog a couple weeks ago. It's a gift catalog where nothing is priced above $20 and has some pretty cool stuff in it, not just gifts (but plenty of those).

Among the stuff I ordered, was a collection of six wolf figurines. They're polyresin and painted with Southwest symbols and petroglyphs. They're NICE! The paint jobs aren't too detailed but they're neat, and great colours.

Here's the link to them on the CollectionsEtc. site if you want to check them out.

Nice collection of wolves you got there. They each have a wonderful and unique paintwork and only $9.99 :o (for the set I'm assuming). Nice find. :D

Very Nice! To bad that on the site they don't have a bigger picture of the figures. They look great, both the coloring and the symbols on them. :D

They are priced as the set. Yep, $1.66 each, and the polyresin's tough stuff. Each one has a nice heft to it. 'Course, there's a little karmic payback, they're (naturally, at that price) made in China.

But the impression I got was one of enjoyment. I hate making light of slave labour but the paint job is very nice on all of them, nothing sloppy about it.

I liked that they made the Alpha pair blue.

I'm thinking of getting another set and re-painting them myself. They're inexpensive enough and I'll have two packs :)

Quick question...

Was that a typo or wittily deliberate?

If it's the latter, it's an interesting alternate for "yeah" :D
