Taylor = It was the last one in the shop but next time I visit I'll see if they have another and I'll send it your way :)

Susanne = Yes it is the same mould as the old Schleich and is indeed made in Portugal. Also the blue grouper was made in Portugal by Maia & Borges even though Schleich or Maia & Borges released it

That's useful information. Strangely, I previously measured and calculated that the old Schleich was right for my 1:32 scale collection, but the Mojo isn't. Something must have gone wrong Very Happy. Adam, would you mind measuring the length of the elephant seal over his back? Thanks in advance.

I think I read somewhere else on the forum that the Schleich is considered to be a Northern (rather than Southern) elephant seal. Would you agree?

Yes I can measure Roland (my name for him after Berlin zoo's one) for you. EDIT: Here are his measurements 19 x 13 x 10cm

To be honest I am not to sure if it's a Northern or Southern, if you can provide info like Southerns are brown coloured and Northerns are grey that would help balance it out

Thanks, Adam. It isn't 1:32 scale then, despite Schleich having it in their 1:32 scale series.

I don't think it's the colour that distinguishes Northern and Southern elephant seals. It's mainly their size and their nose. Male Northern elephant seals have a bigger nose:

I think the Mojo looks more like the Northern.

Congratulations, Adam! Interesting to know that the humphead wrasse is made in Portugal. It really matches much better the style of Maia & Borges than it does with Mojö Fun. Some mould never released before that they agreed to introduce on Mojö/M&B cooperation.
I have the Schleich elephant seal, it is really a huge model and again with a remarkable M&B style. It is too large for 1/32 scale but it really was part of a series called like that, the model is even marked with the scale on it. It is a Northern elephant seal and you're right, the trunk is the most distinctive feature to tell the species. For a nice Southern elephant seal, we have the Happy Kin Toys model, mine was a kind gift from Kosta.

While visiting relatives I was able to get my hands on some Papo, Simmental calf from 2010, Charolais calf from 2013 (very good find), Angora goat from 2018 and the Merino lamb from 2005. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

They are beautyful, all four of them - great finds, Adam Very Happy

Papo has made some really fantastic farm animals over the years.
Frequently even rare breeds, like that lovely goat drunken

Today my anticipated package from eBay arrived with 3 figures I'd ordered and a little surprise in there too! The figures are: Schleich boa constrictor, Safari Authentics armadillo and the surprise elk, and last but not least the Yowies UK tuatara.

I didn't know you wanted the old Schleich boa constrictor. I could have trade it with you as it is a figure I am not especially attached to.

The Mojo elephant seal is a great choice : better painted than the old Schleich but as big and thus, better sized than the tiny Papo model in my opinion.
