Same here! If there was a smaller version I would buy it immediately.

That goes for all WW animals except elephants and giraffe

Yes, a smaller version of the WW panda, orang, Siberian tiger, hippo and gorilla would be AWESOME!
Also, a WW version of last years Indian rhino(I think their best ever Wildlife Series small figure scale) would be AWESOME!
Safari LTD, WAKE UP, collectors would like this, and will buy them! What are they waiting for?

Thanks for showing with such nice pictures Robert! :) That's probably the only WW figure I know from real life and it is the only realistic giant panda of the market. No white rings, no extra cute factor because this animal don't need it. No pathetic barrel body! :) It is real great. It's a shame that the brands make only their best in expensive ranges. I also want a smaller version and cheaper of of this bear. With this size is complety out of my list.
It is only missing a picture from the bottom of the figure. Are the paws and belly detailed?

Could you please tell me how hard the plastic is? I remember someone mentioned the Safari WW are very soft plastic...

WW Panda is really a master piece! Still thinking.....

The soft plastic SAFARI LTD are the IC "Incredible creatures", even not all of them...

The material isn't soft but they are hollow, so they give the impression of softness...

Wonderful panda, Robert

And wonderful pictures

Thankyou very much for showing us this magnificent model

Thanks Susanne

Exactly, the pangolin and flying squirrel are hard as a rock.

Me too...
Actually I decided not to get those big sized figurines but it's hard to resist,especially at that Panda and the Hippo.
And beautiful pictures,Robert!

A phantastic panda!!Congrats!!!

Still the best panda although some improvement in the painting is possible, especially because of the scale,...
there are so many "more than cute teddy panda-Cripples" available.

Thank you kiki and Robert
Time to buy some Safaris

I didn't know about that figure, or if I had I'd forgotten it's SO nice, Colorata make wonderful models

Thanks for the link Christophe, it is a beautiful piece! :) But I usually don't talk about Colorata because they are hard to find, expensive and I'm not sure if they are toys!

the WW paws are very good, same with the greyish colouration on the hind legs.
It's less glossy too, a characteristic which i really don't like when it's about e.g. Colorata Big Cats.
