Oh! Yesterday I saw for the first time the Papo zebras, are very very bad in fact! My choice was a Schleich zebra because I think that the painting is very nice, but at home I stood with the sensation that the sculpting is very poor. Do zebras have esferic bodies? No bones, no muscles?
The CollectA one is much more elegant than a zebra should be and I dont like the painting on the legs, face is nice!
No other zebras?

There are many good zebra-models Roger, in all kinds of scales... Rolling Eyes

Safari, Bullyland, Hausser-Elastolin, Lineol, or even some made in China models... Shocked

Oh Willy! When there are money all are good!!!
I agree with you, I'll stay with my Schleich zebra and think about the croc we've talk before!
And 2011 will bring some news...

Yes Roger, when there is money enough, everything is nice indeed, and you can collect everything and all of the models indeed!
But i do collect every brand, model and scale, haha, and i don't have very much money too... Rolling Eyes

But ok, i started 42 years ago already... Very Happy

Which Schleich zebra do you buy ?

If you want to live with a zebra at 1/20 scale, not too chubby, not too odd, you may consider to buy the last Lineol one but you must buy it on the net then.

In a bigger scale, the SAFARI WW is a good model too I think.

Schleich zebras are the best EVER! I´m so confused about Papo... Zebras for 2010 are even worse than retired ones... Pity Sad

My zebra is 14392, zebra female, I think that is a pregnant zebra! :)
Have I made a wrong choice, Christophe?

Willy, I'm not saying that you have a lot of money! Maybe I'm saying that my pockets should have some more...

No Roger, the Schleich zebras, I mean the three last ones with calf are very very good models, a bit chubby, it's always like that with Schleich, but very good. Of course I've got them all.
The CollectA one is very fine too but a bit bigger.
But again, like my old uncle Willy, I still think the king of all is the Last Lineol from the 1940's to the 1960's.
Not chubby, not static and welll... One day I hope you will have one in hand Very Happy

That zebra is breaking the rulles!!! I'll ask my grand-mother to see if she has one repeated!
Has I said before, my Schleich zebra is pregnant, maybe its baby will grow and ressemble its ancestral Lineol!
Or I'll start tu put some coins inside of a pink pig and someday has it in my hands!

Well zebras are usually chubby-looking 'cause all they do is grazing all day long! Shocked

Compare Schleich zebra to real photos...

I know what you ment Martin, no problem!

To my grandfather Christoph.... farao

I do have this Lineol model already for a long time in my collection! drunken

And here are some more good models IMHO.

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 Lineol_Zebra_lopend_1

OK, the Lineol first to proove the statement...

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 China_Grants_zebra_groot_1

Made in China, a big scale, but very good in my eyes, and that for just 5 euro's...

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 Bandai_Grants_Zebras_1

Bandai, China to, but very nice i think, specially the foal...

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 5358_Hausser_Elastolin_Grants_Zebras_1

Hausser Elastolin so called sof plastic, still a great model!

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 Hausser_Elastolin_Zebra_1

Hausser Elastolin composition, nice model too!

Some new Papo in my collection - Page 2 Hausser_Elastolin_Zebra_masse_1

Hausser Elastolin too, the striping is not always accurate, but the model on itsself is not bad at all...
