The Cows Came Home!

[basilsdad]

The older and new cows appear to be the same mold, just different colors.  The new brown spotted one is just a shade lighter than the older cow. 

@Gordon, anticipating your next question, the headgear fits both old and new! 

@indianapierre, like Jack Sprat and his wife, maybe we can make a deal. 

The new cows are on the left, the older ones on the right.

Thanks for the extra photos, Joe.  I think the two solid coloured ones are new.  I may add a couple to my next DS order.

Thank you, Joe, that's saved me looking them up.

As has been said lots of new cowness in that set. I really like them. In the 2014 new German addons catalog the tan and white and also the dark brown are both there as three cow families including the bulls and the tan and white calf, which are not in the Alpine set. The plain tan cow matches up reasonably well with the tan bull from the Nativity set. No plain tan calf yet in this style.

I knew I'd seen them somewhere.  Thanks, Tim.

Don't know about the prices though - buying them alone... I remember the brown bull was expensive.

Yay! I'm looking forward to getting this set. No idea what I'm going to do with it, but I love it!

Same here! I've got to get it though because of my love of Alpine Villages

Looks like a nice add on altogether nice looking figures in traditional dress not to mention the beautiful headgear and bells on the cows plus the cows themeselves look very nice and happy to arrive at their new home, I particularly like the dark calf and the goat looks alright as well
