This topic is quite oportune for me and a incredible coincidence. Susanne must think we agreed it. Laughing
I am, since yesterday, trying to find it and I had no idea, another Roger collector was debating with the same doubt about the same figure. Shocked It was debated here but it was not conclusive.
Let's see if we can manage it now with so many useful information. One thing I am sure, nobody showed me a figure larger than mine.
My opinion and just an opinion. There is only a single mould, Hausser released it as 70mm as you show on your 1972 catalogue. Later these moulds were sold to Preiser and they changed the plastic and painting and gave #47714 as the new product number.
The figure works as a 1/32 scale but it works better as 1:25 scale. The sitting fox, couldn't be too small once it has a kit and it is already minuscule. If my interpretation is correct,
I think your model, mine and Susanne's have the same pose, I didn't know these other foxes you presented. Susanne's model arrived with other Hausser figures. Apparently your model is the one with the most different painting. Mine and Susanne's have lighter inner legs, more red on tail and eyes over red while yours have eyes over white, more white on tail and red inner legs.
Maybe yours is the Preiser model and mine and Susanne's the Hausser. It can be also the other way round. Laughing A note, often sellers call soft plastic to hollowcast figures.
