The Renard Fox Family
FATHER ERIC RENARD is a 'Do It Yourself' expert. He mends broken windows, repairs roofs, re-hangs gates that don't close properly, you name it, he does it! In his spare time he makes wonderful toys and playthings for his lucky children.
MOTHER ROXY RENARD is Sylvania's top home interior decorator, with great taste and fantastic colour sense. If anyone wants their house to look really stylish they call Roxy, who will rush around to see them, loaded up with wallpaper, paint and material swatch books and a head full of great ideas.
BROTHER BADEN RENARD is a very energetic lad who is a fervent boy scout. When he and his sister are on one of their camping adventures, he is the one who does most of the work, collecting firewood, cooking and putting up the tent, while she plans and organises.
SISTER MIKAELA RENARD is the real outdoor type who just loves camping and ramblingg. She joined the brownies when she was very young and is now a keen girl guide who would love to live in a tent but her mother won't let her!
BABY BROTHER DANNY RENARD is always up to mischief. Not bad or naughty mischief, just the "who left muddy paw prints on the fridge door?" kind.
BABY SISTER CARRIE RENARD loves her brother Danny and follows him everywhere, even though it leads her into trouble!

FATHER VAUGHN RENARD runs the village hardware shop, which is quite handy as his brother Eric is his best customer. Vaughn isn't as good at DIY as his brother, often hitting his thumb with a hammer when trying to hang a painting to the wall.
MOTHER ROSALYN RENARD loves going for bike rides with her son Steve into the countryside. They cycle for miles until they reach the river, where they sit down to a picnic of sandwiches and listen to the local cricket commentary on the radio.
BROTHER STEVE RENARD is the captain of the Berry Grove cricket team. He's been playing ever since he was a toddler. His parents noticed his potential when he used to play catch as a baby and catch everything thrown to him.
SISTER REBECCA RENARD loves reading books. She can often be found under the large oak tree in her garden, curled up with a good book. Her favourite stories all involve princesses in faraway lands living in castles. She dreams of one day being a princess herself, living in a large castle!
BABY SISTER FRANCINE RENARD is a very energetic baby. No matter what her parents do to tire her out, nothing seems to work.

UNCLE ROGER RENARD is the lollipop man at Berry Grove School. He is responsible for all the children getting to school and leaving the school safely each day. He enjoys his job immensely, although he wouldn't mind if the school stayed closed on rainy days!
COUSIN LISA RENARD is a cheer leader with her good friend Lucile Sparkle at Berry Grove School. She loves helping to create the cheers and the dances, and one day hopes to become a professional dancer. When she isn't at her cheerleader rehearsals she can usually be found at home, practising her dance routines.
The Renard Fox family were first released into the UK Sylvanian range in 1995, as four seperate playsets. Father came with a slide in a playground repair set. Mother came with an interior designer set. The brother and sister came with a camping set, while the babies came with a tea cup ride set. When Flair took over the distribution of Sylvanian's, they re-released the Renard family in 2000. This time the family came as a proper family set, and all in different clothes to their original release. The babies this time were also the standing babies. A few years later, and the Renard family were to get another release, this time back to playsets. Mother and son had a release as part of a picnic set, while father came with Dorothy Patches as the new lollipop man for Berry Grove School. The sister figure became an exclusive club figure when joining the UK fan club, coming with the Sparkle rabbit sister. The babies didn't get a new release. I have given the newer figures new names, and biographies, to add to the family members. You might also notice, that the Tomy version varies to the Flair version with the facial markings. The black stripe on the Flair release goes all the way to the eyes, while the Tomy release has a slight gap between.
