Thank you for the pictures.
The colours are really nice on this one.
So is the striding pose and its abillity to stand on two feet.
Well done Papo!

Magnificent photos of a magnificent model of a magnificent creature - can it be much better ? cheers Applause

Look at the power and the pose, - ready to attack a tank, if needed !!! WOW !!!

I can't help comparing the paintwork of Safari's model : Safari's latest model  Rolling Eyes

Compared to this powerful brute, the one from Rebor is a frail youngster Laughing

Thankyou very much for sharing, - this one definitely entered my wishlist now cheers

Perfect pictures of this new beast! Very Happy
That's a very exciting figure, very detailed and with a fantastic pose. I don't remember seeing such a great figure when I just watched official pictures. It is powerful, a little to the monstruous side and clearly directed to pop culture. However, I find it, mainly the pose, nicer than the good work Dough Watson did with the Safari figure. :)

Impressive how it stands on his legs Shocked

Is it me or it is really broad and heavily built?

Thank you for the topic Very Happy

Now that you mention it, Christophe. I notice how ingenious the sculptor was playing with the center of gravity of the figure. Taking the point where it touch the ground as a vertical axis, it seems the rear half is almost as massive as the front half of the animal being the massive tail a good counterweight to the head. Using computers it is not hard at all but using traditional sculpting methods, I suppose it is very hard to achieve a good point of balance. Interesting that the pose of the legs are somewhat placed forward giving the impression that the rear of the animal is really long. Nevertheless, I like much more the figure like it is done than the tripod stance we see in several figures.

I would say the front half is heavier than the back part and it would fall over ... if Papo didn't have had the brilliant idea of balancing the figure on one foot and the toes of the other, which keeps the animal from falling on its snout. I'm pretty sure other companies will copy that in the future Smile .
