A Series of Laugh and Grow

Real animals, reimagined plump and cheerful — painted in lifelike detail, sculpted impossibly cute.

🐢

Chubby & Full of Character

Rounded, soft and undeniably cute — yet every scale, wrinkle and marking is hand-painted true to the real animal. The reaction it gets in person is always the same: so detailed, and so adorable.

Ready to Display

A single, sturdy hand-painted piece — no assembly, no fuss. Set it on a desk or shelf and it holds its happy pose, ready to collect and show off.

The secret of Series 3 is also its most familiar face. The red-eared slider — that classic green turtle with a red flash behind each eye — is the most commonly kept pet turtle in the world, and a fitting hidden treasure to close the collection.

The Red Ears That Aren’t

Those bright red stripes sit behind the eyes, not on any actual ear — but they give the slider its name and its instantly recognizable look, captured crisply on this figure.

The World’s Pet Turtle

Bred and sold by the millions, the red-eared slider is the turtle most people picture first. That very popularity has carried it far beyond its home.

A Great Traveller

Released pets have established the species on nearly every continent, making it one of the world’s most widespread reptiles — and a lesson in the ripple effects of the pet trade.

The Champion Basker

Sliders love to haul out and soak up the sun, often stacked in piles on a single log. Rounded into a plump figure, this sun-loving classic is the perfect hidden reward.

“The turtle everyone knows — hidden in plain sight to finish the set.”
