She is lovely !!! Congratulations with this great model

Deer and antelope are usually a world of males in this hobby. mooses are not an exception although their females are unmistakable when compared with other does. That's an interesting release from Schleich although brands like Bullyland, K&M or AAA have released them in large size previously. Some can be found on vintage companies also but I think it is interesting to mention the anecdotic fact of Britains collectors taking the chance of their moose figures have removeable antlers to buy a pair and use one of them as a cow. :reindeer:

Thank you for the pics :)

Rodger, now that is a clever idea !

Britains collecting marked a generation in 1970s as Schleich is marking in last decade. Another clever Britains collecting trick was to use the old beardless deer without antlers as a mate to the newer bearded stag. It worked perfectly once older figure is smaller and being powerly bearded, it looks really like a doe when antlers are removed or broken.

Hausser Elastolin made an excellent family in the 70's, small but very fine

You are welcome

The bad thing with these mooses is tehy were smaller than the red deers

Roger, can you plz share any link to the large K&M moose picture? Although the moose is one of my favourite animal, I never heard about such figurine and TAI was not very helpful... Thanks.
