African bush elephant, Bullyland Deluxe Wild Animals 63573, walk around

maybe I'm a little bit on the elephant realm those days but after the Asian elephants from BULLYLAND and LINEOL, it is time now to show a walkaround of the African elephant from BULLYLAND.

And now, open your eyes...

Aha, finally one of the modern makers that knows which is the correct scale in 1:20...
Good model my friend, but nothing beats that old Lineol.
But that was nothing new i guess...

I'm very happy to live with it now and I was very surprised it matched so nicely with the LINEOL. It is indeed another good reason to find a place for it

Lovely elephant Kiki, it has fine detail. Lovely pictures of it.
I agree though about the Lineol, it's just fantastic.

!!!

Very nice elephant Christophe, and in very good scale too

This Elephant has a great chest, an a amazing right angule, the ears are very poor in details, and i would like some day find a massive heavy bull

I agree with you that the ears are the weakest point, but ok, the size makes good much... :)

So Christophe, I can see these pictures flawless, there are no problems !!! Many thanks. And very nice pictures of the elephant's models. The Lineol elephant is really fantastic! I like personally also very much this Papo elephants, even if he is a little smaller.

Ok, the ears are not the best ever but it's still not Mickey mouse !

What I like in this model is it isn't to tall and fat. The legs are broad as a small SCHLEICH, the tail is not like a trunk. It's a good friend for me and my LINEOL elephant

Very happy you can look at it now Ralf. I will make a walkaround of the LINEOL african elephant soon

What do you mean my friend?

Willy What happened to your nose ???

I still don't know what you mean my friend...



It looks fine to me...

Thanks Kiki,
That looks a really BIG elephant.
Can you post a picture with comparison with the Wildlife Wonders from Safari?

Thank You

I don't have the Wildlife wonders but I know it is bigger than the Bullyland.

Christophe, the Ww is 165 mm tall at the shoulder. Do you have the chance of checking how tall at the shoulder is this one? I know it would help tcenter.

This one is 115mm at shoulder   

Thank you very much Kiki and Roger - That does help me a lot! :)

Thanks Christophe! If we use 330 cm at the shoulder as the average for an adult male African bush elephant, it will result im a modest 1:29 scale to this beautiful elephant. The same measurements put the WW at 1:20 scale amd the Schleich male at 1:33. The Bully is clearly a good option to who wants a male im correct proportions with the schleich female, to who wants another elephant to make a little herd with the majestic Lineol or to who just want a not chubby elephant which size don't shock when compared with standard sized figures.

Hello,
Please somebody knows if Bullyland did this elephant at two different sizes, just like they did with the Javan rhino?
In this thread it states it measures 115 mm at shoulder height.
I went to a page for check if they had it in stock for add it to my collection, but in that page it indicates: "measurements: 10,5 cm"; and I underestand the measurements provided to a figure, if no other option is available, as the total lenght, that in this case should be from tusk tips to tail tip, and that should be waaaay longer than shoulder height.

So I don't want to buy the figure thinking it's large and receive a version smaller than most western brand elephants! Somebody enlighten me please?

I am the ghost of the Bullyphant!
Yes, they did. The newer is slightly smaller.
Model here presented is the larger/older 63573   while the smaller is 63685.

I did a repaint on mine so it was not so battleship gray.

Thanks! But the measurements I wrote (10'5 cm lenght for the newer model) are much more than just "slightly"... maybe they did three sizes????
Besides that, I see in your photo that the newer model have a skin texture much less detailed than the older...

Seanie, your retouched model is far much better than the original! :) But I think yours is not Bullyland, but Safari LTD Wildlife Wonders... the tusks are thinner and the tail is in different position

Yes, it is not the Bully elephant, but it is gorgeous with new paint

Pardo, I have never heard that there should be 3 sizes of this model
Could it be  THIS model, it is app 10 cm from the tip of the tail to the tip of the trunk
