I hope one day Schleich, Safari or Papo will introduce us black gnu as their new item :) i love black gnu

Congratulations Willy! I love black gnu too! It's my favourite meat!
Nice catch! I doubt that Schleich will introduce a black gnu, but Joan will do it! :)

Great find ! Congratulations, Willy
That figuere has great charm

Thank you all guys, this was an item i really wanted for a long time, another great Lineol model.

I think it is exactly the same as yours Christophe, maybe it is the angle of the camera, or the way my pic came out...

Congratulations Willy. A terrific find.

Thierry, it is fantastic to see that you're expanding your collection to non French figures. These two German composition models are two treasures. The comparison picture shows two completely different vintage worlds. The large and composition German models with the small hard plastic French figures.

Congratulations :)

Three wonderful old treasures

It is very interesting to see them together...as Roger says, the interpretation of this beast are quite different !
Elastolin has stressed the power and relative heavy build of a black gnu bull, while Lineol has stressed the elegance, and Starlux the swiftness and sharp horns ...all three are amazing

Thankyou for the great photos, and for bringing this topic back in focus
