| Moving to the 3rd model I got, the mighty Boxer! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Compared to the Papo St. Bernard. Perfectly matched, don't be fooled by the photo, the Papo model is much bigger. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Compared to the Schleich Boxer, that is of course in a smaller scale. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Lovely model, CollectA is getting the Canids replicas on another level. |

| This boxer is wonderful also. Looks quite a bit like a friend's boxer. Another great model and walkaround! Congrats! _________________ -"I loathe people who keep dogs.

| These walkarounds are so good, it's great to see such clear honest photos of an actual production model, not just the prototype in the catalogue picture. I'm not a dog collector but I'm enjoying seeing these, the sculpt for the beagle and especially this guy are spectacular, with so much detail - they remind me of artist resins rather than standard plastic toy-type models. |

| Thank you all! I think it's even better in real, you'll be surprised how slender, still muscular, the legs are and how strong the chest looks, like it really is in the actual dog breed. My next and final model from this batch will be the brand new Donkey, I think I can post photos tomorrow.

| I second @George's words! It is for me the dog of the year, I like it in all regards, the design and the option for a non docked tail or cropped ears, the proportions are perfect, the painting can't be better, the size is the right one for my taste, only great things to tell about this figure. Last year Papo and Safari demonstrated they are strong with dogs, the Pyrenees and the Great Dane are magnificent models and CollectA replies with this Boxer and the Beagle. Dog collectors only have good reasons to feel happy. I love comparison topics, here is what remains from the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] - I hope someone can presente a comparison topic with these two models once they represent two distinct interpretations of the same breed. |

| Ohh wow!! CollectA's second dog model from this year, and just as stunning as the first! Thank you so much for another fantastic walkaround, what an absolutely amazing boxer! I don't know where to begin with this beauty, everything about it is so perfect- I can hardly believe this is a mass-produced plastic figurine that can be bought for a few pounds! It just makes me so grateful for CollectA, and having a brand that brings out these hyper- realistic models- and especially, hyper- realistic dogs! I love the second photo you took, and how similar he is there to the official picture with those beautiful meticulously done brindle markings that gently fade into the brown fur beneath just like the real dog! Usually when I look at a dog figure I can pick up a few mistakes or things that look slightly wrong with the overall proportions or shape- but it is so hard with this Boxer! I just love those muscular legs and chest as you say, and again perfect anatomy- and even the little fold of skin going from the back leg to his stomach! And the head, so much tiny detail to create a shape that is exactly the same as the real dog, everything from the eyes to the slight wrinkles on the brows and muzzle! The depth created from the carefully blended browns in the head (And across the whole body) is so well done- it's what brings this boxer to life next to other more basically painted models like the Papo St. Bernard. This Papo model is wonderful but the boxer is so good that in the photo where they're both together the St. Bernard looks so basic in comparison- and I would say that the boxer is a real dog! I also love the detail of the veins, and the natural ears and tail make this model even more fantastic if that's even possible, we need more models like this to educate children that THIS is how boxers naturally should be! I can't decide which dog I prefer out of these two masterpieces, but I can't wait to hold them in my hands to try and decide! Thank you again for this walkaround, it's a joy to be able to see these two stunning dogs so early! |
