Here it is! The new 2017 Dingo from Safari LTD. !

Arrrgh! The serial number on the leg drives me batty! I will at the very least be removing that!

I wished the painting of the paw pads would have been done a bit better.

Overall though it is an impressive figure...even if the legs are a bit thick for a Dingo. One thing I've noticed with this figure and also their new Siberian Husky is that the plastic is a lot harder than it used to be. Now the legs don't bend at all or if they do, it is very little. Other than the paw pads being a bit sloppy in regards to the paint job, the overall paint work on this figure is excellent and very much resembles the stock photo exactly. Very Happy

I agree with everything you said Very Happy Too thick legs but a big improvement on painting. Could you share a comparison pic to show the size? Very Happy

Thank you for this excellent walkaround Very Happy

Excellent walk around and of one of these figures that I'd love surely to get. Yes, I talk to myself that due to the current circunstances I have to stop a little from my collecting hobby and brands keep providing great figures and STS friends great pictures! Hard life! Laughing
I agree also that legs are too thick, harder plastic, thicker legs, that's manufacturing rule. I also don't like very much the pose, mainly front legs but that's just a personal thing. I am glad there's a dingo among major companies and that it is smaller than the Science&Nature one. Very Happy

Lol, hopefully you will be able to obtain this dingo. Thick legs and all it still is a great figure. Hopefully, your current circumstances clear up soon. :)

Very Happy I'm happy too that there is finally a dingo among these major brands.

Now if only somebody would make a Dhole... Wink

Beautiful model! As you said, this one is almost perfect aside from the paw pads. She looks like she's about 1:12 scale as well. This seems to be the best dog figure released so far this year.

Yes, a dhole, definitively! bounce Here is a good feat, let's see who is brave enough to release a dhole. ... it is also important that we, STS members, keep showing interest in that eventual figure, the dhole deserves to be included in the encyclopedia of toy animal figures. cheers

Apart from the big foot and I think is not a bad figure and safari painting is better than before. Thank you for sharing!
