Bigger than Safari ltd, it would be a 1/35 scale basking shark, the Safari ltd is around 1/60. I need to think about it.

That's PERFECT

I am surprised there isn't more wildlife models. If the meerkat is the same size as my Schleich, I will buy it too.

But the basking shark is THE great surprise As many already pointed out, the Safari rendition was way too small.

It's 6cm tall. A bit chubbier I think

Isn't CollectA increasing the scale of their figures ? The sloth is already much bigger than expected.

Chubby for sure. I am having fun with the assistive technology of my mobile phone and it is being described as a prairie dog. Chubby as a marmot.

this is the old mold meerkat from 2008.. Though it seems they are increasing it in some models. I wonder about the puffin, haven't seen it yet in real..

The prairie dog is still an well-known species to be released by one of the major brands...

CollectA birds are usually much bigger than Schleich birds. I think the puffin is closer to the size of the Papo model than the Schleich.

You’re right, Safari has it but using sizes not for our taste. It is time to they introduce it in their Wild Safari North America Wildlife series. European brands favour Alpine marmots. Maybe the Eikoh prairie dog is a good option for you.

It is cute but not very "textured". Indeed, as an American species, Safari should make it.

Off-topic : I feel like prairie dogs are much less common in zoos as they used to be in my childhood.

Million thanks, spacelab! Extremely useful, certainly much bigger than the Safari one (that is just 14 cm). It's almost as big as Papo whale shark (24,5 cm) and that's what I need in a basking shark, plus the extremely well done microfissured skin texture, the superbly painted inside of the mouth, the more correct body and fin proportions... it's just perfect and go to my wishlist inmediately :)

me too! I have the Safari one, but since this one is a little smaller than my Papo whale shark, it's a winner!
