Buy CollectA kids’ toys in Australia

Capturing the animal kingdom in small-scale replicas, Collecta toys are the real-life equivalent of animal encyclopaedias. Working with world-leading experts, the Hong-Kong based firm recreates accurate representations of creatures big and small. The level of detail goes as far as specific species native to certain continents (think African elephant vs. Indian elephant), and they’re not afraid to invest in expert knowledge along the way.

That’s why you’ll find many of these specimens used for educational purposes, demonstrating the different behaviours and subspecies that exist on the planet. Known for their amazingly large number of dinosaur toys (developed with the help of a leading palaeontologist), Collecta brings life-like creatures to Australian homes and classrooms via Melbourne’s very own Toybox.

From Hong Kong to Australia, via Hampton, Melbourne

From the very beginning, Collecta was dedicated to creating high-quality plastic toys that are for more than just play. Manufacturing each specimen from high-quality ABS plastic, the brand breathes life into their products by capturing the exact poses, muscle movements, and behaviours that characterise a particular animal. As a result, the Toybox collection is full of personality and dynamic motion, showcasing snow leopards playing, monkeys thinking, and spirited mares galloping at full speed. With the help of accessories, you’re free to create real-life scenes of farms and jungles, or even mix them into cityscapes.

If you’re an avid fan, buying pieces individually offers ultimate control over the selection. There are also plenty of gift sets available to help speed up the process, and they’re easily shipped to your address, anywhere in Australia.

Expect to encounter rare and extinct creatures along your collectors’ journey – and even some that belong to the realms of myth and legend. Available in sizes S, M, L, and XL, these Collecta children’s toys make their mark on the classroom, bedroom or mantlepiece, becoming works of art in their own right.
