Megaptera's Collection

Thank you so much, I'll remember to check there!

You are welcome

CollectA longhorn we already know how impressive it is through [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] but I am really impressed with the koala, Schleich model is very pretty, small and well finished but has that little extra touch of cuteness that koalas don't need because they're naturally adorkable. Looks very realistic, big but not giant.

Thank you, Roger. You are right. The Koala from Schleich was very well made and quite realistic. But CollectA created a masterpiece. I think in real life it looks even better than on my image. It's 100 % worth to get it.

Two supremely gorgeous figures. Congrats!

Thank you very much

So, the next ones are coming. This time the CollectA Darwin's frog, the CollectA Amiata donkey and of course again a cattle (I like cattle breeds), the Papo Simmental cattle:

Gorgeous! I really like that cow too, and the frog. :) big cingrats on all 3!

Thank you, Saarlooswolfhound
CollectA made some astonishing models this year. And also the cow is wonderful. I like cattle breeds very much.

Three beautiful models!

Thank you, Caracal

the cattle is photobombing the donkey!

It was quite annoying
Everytime we want to take a picture of the Donkey, the cow jumped into focus

So, I decided to get the CollectA Red Kangaroo, the Safari Hyacinth Macaw and the Wapiti:

We really need an elk with more delicate antlers and legs but I am waiting so long for a new elk that I may eventually get this one. It looks nice on your pictur. So you ended getting the CollectA kangaroo instead of the Mojo model?

Nice additions again.

Yes, it's the only Wapiti available yet. I've checked several Red kangaroo models. Until now, I had the one from Papo. But the female one was red celoured instead of grey coloured. I think the one from CollectA is the best one in that size. The Southlands one could possibly be a bit better. But the CollectA kangaroo is also a masterpiece. The all in all colouration is absolutely correct. Even the tail is not red, but more in a cream colour. The face is also very detailed and wonderful made.

Thank you, Andreas

Thanks for your detailed opinion, Michael!

You are welcome, Roger

Excellent new models! That roo buck is gorgeous, big congrats on all though!

Thank you very much, Saarlooswolfhound

Wonderful additions, I love the blue colour of the macaw and the kangaroo and wapiti are both very realistic!

Thank you, Bonnie

Because I was never really happy with the Blacktip reefshark from CollectA (the promotion picture was much better than the real one), I decided to replace it with the shark from Papo. I think, that this one has a very acurate colouration and a good shape:
