Papo 2018 News!

Almisi cool pictures show that papo has done a great job I plan to buy two of these cheetahs

I like Puss in boots and Lynx models! Cheetah as always...

New kitties!

These are interesting- even when the species choices are not uncommon it's fun to see different interpretations. The lynx looks great and hopefully the final paint will look similar to this. The bear and primates are nice.

Two good features in particular stand out: the rattlesnake has a closed mouth and the whale shark has an open mouth. The shark looks spectacular- it is done well by other brands but the feeding pose sets this one apart. I'm curious about the size and final appearance.

Cool, a Quetzacoatlus

I didn't know Therizinosaurus was so short-leg it makes him look... fat?

Quetzalcoatlus is pure Papo spirit! I find it incredible with an exciting pose and highly detailed. May look weird to some experts but that's what we expect from a Papo figure... pure action!
I think that after Mojö's Arabian mare in foal, pregnant figures are fashionable now, so it explains the Therizinosaurus.

That's odd

To be fair, and as much as I like Papo dinos, sometimes they make some figures that doesn't mean anything to me. Their marine reptiles are good examples and this therizinosaurus looks quite silly to me. I think they wanted to give to it the large belly some herbivores have but the general result is surely not my taste. Though, I love the quetzalcoathlus and I know some find it silly because of its pose. Tastes.

therizinosaurs are commonly represented as potbellied creatures. it might sometimes become over exaggerated maybe...

If I understand correctly from their Facebook page that's all the wildlife models for 2018, they announced an "icefield playset" today as their final wildlife range release. I hope there's some more farmlife and likely lots more fantasy.

I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for some nice cats and dogs from Papo for 2018.
Hopefully we can see the new catalogue 2018 online soon.

Hear ! Hear !

I also hope for more figures. They are a little miserly now.

They posted a blue whale on Facebook I haven't seen before.

Indeed

I would like to see how it is with the mouth opened

Thanks for picture, Christophe! Hard to judge from this pic, we can't see ventral area and pose seems quite stiff for a Papo. It has a beautiful color and if it is done with the subtle detail Papo used us, it may end looking like a very graceful figure. Hopefully, someone acquires it and show a walk around on forum.

Oh, I like the lynx, and the Acrocanthosaurus as well. Lynx is one of my favourite animals, I have seen it once in here in Finland (not in a zoo but in real nature).

I don't have any dinosaur figurines so far. The Acrocanthosaurus might be my very first purchase.

I think it was not yet presented here. A new color for the Hanoverian horse. I think there are some more new horse figures but I can't check now.

We need the full catalogue for 2018.

They also shared some of their horses, the Hanoverian and some riding sets.

Thank you, Anasta.

I like the gorilla, the whales, the vari and the cats. But a brown bear? Why? We have a lot of them.

I hope for more wild life and also for fantasy and mutants.

Same as with lions, tigers, elephants,...:
We have a lot of...horrible and weird up to bizarre figurines...yes, but onl a few really good ones!
