That's incredible, we keep seeing CollectA having problems to have a presence in the market in accordance with the quality of their figures, but they are copied in an incredible way. I know these figures are not available in shops where it is supposed to buy CollectA although there's always the chance that they have a negative effect in CollectA's strategy.

No I find it odd that the box says "The Retrievers" when the dogs aren't even retrievers. Why not just "The Dogs?"

Well observed, maybe because they were retrieved from the originals, if it makes sense.

I am both shocked and appalled. Literally speechless.
The recent spate of copy cats seem to be focused on CollectA more than any other brand...what is going on?
This will hurt CollectA or indeed any brand and must be stopped but it is very difficult if the perpetrators are based within China. What is the point of buying a copy when for just a little more you can have the original?

Shows the lengths someone will go to make a little money on another's hard work. This is truly unfortunate, I hope it can be stopped. (the originals look better anyways)

Hi all! I visited one of shops with Möjo and I saw here some cheap copies of CollectA dogs. I think many of you already know that serie named «Retrivers». So here are some dogs I bought:
Sorry that I didn't do common photo of them, I hadn't thought about it In this shop I found some other dogs like Afgan hound, Bobtail, Spaniel ans Shar Pei. I saw some copies of other CollectA animals (tiger, lion...) and copie of Schleich grizzly bear.

I am so glad to see that these "fake" dogs are subpar to CollectA's originals. That only shows how much work a REAL toy company puts into their figures.
