OMG! this rhino is FANTASTIC! what a perfect replica.

Wow, what a wonderful model Luke!!

Luc that's an amazing rhino! He's so beautiful, thanks for sharing!

WOW ! That is a stunning, wonderful model

I LOVE the whole idea, - the boy with a parrot riding a rhino instead of a knight with a falcon riding a horse

Is there a special story conneted with the model ?

Some poor old Rhinos

SO beautyful and much loved rhinoes

I can see there is already a new generation

Isn`t it amazing how a bit of paint can change a model ?

Sorry, I forgot to write that It is a retired rhino from Safari. There is 1996 under his belly

Thank you Susanne, he is adorable!

The detail is so good & hope to see more Luke!

I have a general question. The Bullyland Deluxe Rhinoceros is a Black Rhinoceros, right? Is anyone confident enough of that to give me a definite 'yes'? (I'm just curious.)

Second, after seeing the picture Jean-Luc posted of the "Rhino Rider" (available on eBay here), I was really curious to know whether Rhinos can actually be used as mounts. It appears that they cannot, which is too bad.

Roger (and Sue and Lesley too), like Kristie I absolutely love the Britains Indian Rhino. I've been wanting to find one for a while.

I started collecting Britains because of the quality of the Indian rhino! I must say that the top and the bottom of the figure are also very nicely sculpted, I love the skin folding, general proportions and even the size once it is a 1:32 scale figure! I must also say that Safari Indian rhino is a very dignified successor!

Roger, the Indian Rhino was the first figure that made me pay more attention to Britains as well! I just ordered one from eBay (unfortunately the day before Taylor posted a list of models to trade that included that figure...and also unfortunately, in my enthusiasm, I did not get a good deal on eBay...sigh). But my first (and only) Britains was the Hippo (grazing). It is also so nicely sculpted, in my view. Just perfect.

Ralf, I love your collection. I also have two questions for you: (1) What brand is the Javan Rhino that is on the grassy platform? That's the most important question.

The one with the grassy platform is of artificial stone of the manufacturer Country Artists, the other two of Bullyland.

Thank you Ralf! I think I may have to get this. It is available on eBay. If I may ask, what material is it made out of? It looks like a more hard and breakable material.

For Scott : YES

PS, do others also have a problem remebering the English terms, - which one is "white" and which one is "black" when they are both grey ?

The word "white" really stems from the dutch word for "wide".
The "white" one has a wide nose , - simple as that.

WOW! They are beautyful !!!!
I have never seen those before

Are they large ?

The two top ones are biggest. About 10cms long, too big for most of my other models though.
