Dear all

This is the final wildlife model of 2014 - the American black bear which along with the Anaconda were special requests by a supplier of CollectA models. I had hoped to make a completely new bear species but we had to move this species.

There is one adjustment being made to this model - the belly will be just a little bit longer and that is it.

I'm loving everything in CollectA's 2014 range, it's going to be an extremely exciting year. Everything CollectA release has exquisite sculpturing and a beautiful look and quality. CollectA animals are my personal favourite to collect !!!

I love the new bear! Great looking specimen. I love bears, so I'll have to try to find this one.

I know you were hoping to get around to a new species (can't wait to see that one, by the way!). If you're looking for more variety in bears, is there any chance you'd explore the possibility of repainting this black bear to represent some of its other color phases? I've never seen (and would really love to see) any company create models representing glacier bears, kermode bears, or cinnamon bears. Just a thought.

Yes, I've thought for a while about specifically asking Collecta to do just that. I would love to see them repaint this model into at least the Kermode/Spirit bear. For Collecta it's a great chance for a two for one, like the white lions or the red Brahma's, saving them money. And for collectors, a great chance to get a very rare and beautiful variation. Hey Numaan, is that a request you would be willing to pass on, knowing the influence that you have with Collecta?

It's really hard to see this model from the picture given. Honestly, I can't tell whether to get excited or not, but I'm really looking forward to seeing more pictures! I love a good black bear, so despite the fact that there are already a bunch of very satisfying Black Bears on the market (in particular, I really love the ones by Schleich, Safari, and Mojo Fun), my shelf always has room for another good bear model. I hope this one as good as CollectA's best releases this year.

More pictures could be better to tell, I am not sure whether I am going to like him or not? Just like what Scott mentioned " to get excited or not"?

Common species are not a problem in a brand that is giving us the most exciting range of species for 2014. Very Happy
Honestly, this particular sculpt doesn't look very promising from this single picture. A weird geometry and not a very bear looking, though, it keeps the detailed looking from last releases and with further pictures I may get a better impression from it. Very Happy
