Even if the Warthog is a very interesting, strange looking and and unusual creature, there aren't THAT many models made of it, if we look at TAI , compared to other common, African animals like elephants, leopards, zebras etc.. pig

But now Papo has made one also  cheers

The warthog has a large head.
But even if there are sub-species with very large head and sturdy neck, perhaps Papo has over-done it a bit ?  scratch

Apart from this, I love this model, - lots of fine detail, as is typical for the best Papos

And the large head is magnificent  cheers

When I got the pig in my hand, I had a feeling to have seen him before, - and certainly, he must be closely related to the lovely, retired on from Safari Ltd  Very Happy

For comparison a small family of warthog-boars, - Papo, Safari and Schleich  sunny

Thanks for watching, I look forward to your comments to my new, fine piggie Wink

I almost forgot that Papo had a warthog for 2015! pale
I'll surely revisit this topic with excellent pictures to study it better and take a final decision. I love the Schleich hog that is the one I own. Safari is the one whose pose I like best but it seems Papo is the most detailed one. scratch They fit nicely together and all three are very good figures in my opinion. Thanks for showing this almost forgoten new important release! cheers

Lovely warthog; thank you so much for sharing, Susanne! cheers I'm not really into pigs - but I must say, warthogs are very interesting. I sure have to get a few more for my collection Razz
