Papo is nicer in pose, detail and realism, by far in my opinion. Though I also like both and we must remember that they belong to similar concept brands but they have 16 years difference. :)
The last picture is very eloquent to me, I love the flat and long head of Papo's cobra when compared with the somewhat cute Schleich cobra.
Yes, Schleich can make cute crocs and cobras.
I want to see Papo's cobra in real.
Thanks for comparison topic.
