Thanks Valerie . Yes , the long eared bat is incridibly a rare model released by AAA .

Infact , AAA has become one of my favorite brands as because the animals are of solid size , very vintage looking and certainly a different make . Some of the early schleich and safari have the AAA influence on them . Soft , rubbery plastic with a less detailed , vintage look .


Some of the AAA animals are extraordinarily made- like Mandrills , Baboon , Koala , giant ant eater , porcupine , Llama etc. etc. They all are very original looking and well sculpted . As far as one doesn't mind the scale size at all [ like me ], these AAA models are real gems in collection .

You should see the 1978 AAA dinosaur line! Comical line, this one. So vintage-like, they look like ordinary Chinasaurs, with their mouths wide open on many tiny teeth. This line include a standing iguanodon, a dimetrodon, a stegosaurus, a sauropelta, a triceratops and a diplodocus. This line was very popular at the time, as many knock-offs just marked "Made in Hong Kong 1978" have been released. If you look for that vintage line, check for brown color-plastic dinos with blue-painted eyes, with the year 1978.
