top three best papo models

Papo Top 3(As far as their Wildlife Series), very tough for me as well...
1) Lioness
2) Adult Hippopotamus
3) Tiger(Both version normal coloration or white, since same figure, just different paint job)

Well, I'm still thinking in other 2 figures but this one I'm sure is one of the 3 best in my opinion. So, I'll introduce this picture as well as I cannot decide other 2!

Yes, it's tough, because they do have many nice Wildlife series figures. My 4-10, probably would be...
4) Nile Crocodile
5) Black/Spotted Panther(Leopard)
6) Cheetah
7) Gorilla
African Buffalo
9) King of the Jungle Lion
10) Mandrill

Honorable Mentions: Black rhino, Moose, Jaguar(Spotted/Black) and Ostrich

My personal top 3 Papo figures are the 2012 release T-Rex walking pose; fearsome dino if ever there was one. African Buffalo; this chunky beast is awesome and far more formidable than schleich buffalo & calf? And last but certainly not least, Hippopotamus with gaping mouth.

Original Papo green rex; brown repaint rex; running rex

I also really like the Papo Meerkats, because aside from the artistic realism of each figure! I think they really captured the curios personality of the standing one! So I know I enjoy many of the Papo figures, but I just had to give the Meerkats their due!

Difficult choices,
some other sumptuous ........???
I love lions and tigers are smaller in guele,
Hippo, Polar Bears and the Jaguars!!
chamois, camels and yaks but are not
yet found the way home!

yay!

My choices are made according with natural looking and not artifitial spectacularity or other extra factors! After the lioness my second choice is definitively the chamois! The boring pose doesn't bore me!

Papo camurça

Time to think in the 3rd choice!

what a day:
i agree to Rogerios decision!
I'm sorry, but male lion has odd proportions, same as jaguar and black rhino.
Of course, Nile croc is outstanding, not even the highly-appreciated Mojo one can challenge this.
I personally like the boer goat as well, although i don't collect farmlife. i just had to get it. Same procedure with the incredibly fat racoon.

Best, or favorite?

Likely not the best as far as realism and such, but my top 3 favorites are:

PAPOPOTAMUS

Dromedary Camel

And English Throughred

If you make me pick "best", then likely Papopotamus, male tiger, and Percheron mare :)

Ahhh yes
The dromedary, - THE funny gal that splits the collecto`` s world into two : Those who love her and those who hate her

I am certainly one of those who LOVE her

What's not to love? :)

-Kristie

That Dromedary is probably one of the funniest figurines ever!

I also think the dromedary is funny. But in a good way of course. It's easy to find pictures of real camels making exactly that expression. It is a loveable figure.

we should have a thread on 'the three creepiest/weirdest' figures. for me, it's this Bullyland Lynx. I can't get over mangled its features are. (And this photo has not been doctored.)

creepy.

Yikes!

I kinda like him though.

I have a relatively small Papo collection, but here are my favourites:

I don't usually like large figures but the kudu has such a majestical appearance.
I know the raptor isn't very modern rendition of a velociraptor, but I really like its vintage Jurassic Park -look.
And the goat is cool too : )


I don't have the wildebeest/gnu in my collection (yet), but it would be also one of my favourites.

Thank you!
This is actually the goat i was writing about. While browsing for it, i found some threads of people having bought this model and being more interested in darker surroundings,music and stuff,.... It indeed looks evil!

Another noteworthy Papo figure that I would like to mention, is the Komodo Dragon. I know the tail is a bit to curved and maybe a bit to greenish in color, but I still feel it captures and has that monitor lizard feel.

Oh, I like the Goat! I've never seen any good pictures of the Goat and as a result, I've never put it on my wish list. So thank you for posting this picture; it is really helpful.

Scott, you're welcome. I know that there aren't many pics of him and the official one is quite unclear...

What? Really? :'''D
I knew that goats can be associated with that kind of stuff and especially that figure because it looks so.. evil. But sounds weird anyways!

They are beautyful, Krista

I also LOVE that boer goat, - and your velociraptor is the older version which is nicer than the new one IMHO
