More about the Dragon Diver

The Diver hides underwater before bursting out to attack everyone and everything. Its powerful jaws are filled with razor-sharp teeth that make even the bravest of men tremble with fear. It is said that the dragon can be soothed by beautiful singing. But who would dare to try that?

The legendary Dragon Island is located far off the storm-lashed coast of Eldrador. Only a handful of men have been there – and even fewer have returned alive. They all tell tales of terrible dragons. The Diver is probably one of the deadliest. Sailors are terribly afraid of it, because it hides underwater before bursting out to attack with powerful jaws that can tear entire ships apart. Arrows and spears can’t penetrate its scaly skin, meaning sailors are almost defenceless against its attacks. An old pirate once said that the Dragon Diver can only be soothed by the sound of beautiful singing. But who would dare to sing while staring into a mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth?

Fun factThe Diver can even unleash its powerful dragonfire underwater.

More about Schleich

The complete production process for Schleich figurines, from the design of the models to the finished product, takes an average of three to four months. Many different stages must be completed – each involving loving attention to detail and the highest quality standards – before the famous hand-painted and uniquely realistic Schleich figurines are finished and ready to be played with by children around the world.

Materials: Each Schleich figurine has its own base colour, the recipe for which is uniquely developed using various PVC-based pigment mixes of varying degrees of hardness. All production substances and materials used undergo chemical checks in advance.

Hand Painting: Every Schleich figurine is hand painted. The only exception occurs in the case of large patterns – for example the brown patches on a giraffe – which are applied via a pad printing process. Otherwise, the careful, step-by-step process of hand painting each figurine with sponges, brushes and airbrushes is a great display of painstaking craftsmanship. In order to keep the colour of each figurine identical across all production runs, each tone has its own individual recipe that stipulates the pigment proportion of up to nine base colours and is mixed in-house. Mixing its own colours not only helps Schleich ensure consistency between all its tones, but also means it can guarantee that the paints it uses are safe. The colours undergo strict quality inspections both during purchasing and after the painting process in the form of light, heat, abrasion and chemical tests. Only once they have passed these tests the finished figurines receive the famous Schleich flag with the red “S” and are ready to be dispatched.
