Here is my site with pictures of my Forest Family -creatures in case you don't know what they are. In Finland they were sold with Finnish back cards and they went by the name Pikkaraiset. I know that they were sold at least in Sweden, by the name Forest Families.

I would like to hear all the information you can give about Forest Families, and please let me know if they were sold in your country!

If someone knows a site or an online community or anything related to Forest Families, please post here and let me know! ^.~

Thanks so much!

Hi again!

I have now made a new site about Forest Families! Feel free to visit Xara's Forest Families!

It's still a bit unfinished, but has pictures of my collection and basic info of the series. If you know something missing from the site, do let me know! ^.~

You might have luck finding more info on a Sylvanian Family site? This is the one I joined a while back, but I'm not really an active member.

edit: I browsed around and they definitely have some chatter in there about Forest Families, and I even saw they post a link to your site as a reference! LOL

It's a small world of toy collectors isn't it! :D

Sorry for double posting!

I'd like someone to verify if Forest Families were sold in their country! ^.~

I know for sure that FF's were sold in: Finland, Sweden, South Africa, UK, USA (California).

And I think FF's were sold in: France, Spain, Italy.

Does anyone have additional information? Do let me know!
