Observations/Thoughts:
First time I committed to doing a haul of the American bovines! I’ve added them to my collection, as I’ve always wanted bovines from the US with very strong, masculine, American sorts of names. They seem to fit as I always think the likes of Lancaster and Winchester sound like cowboys…One was a gun model too so it kinda figures…
What I love about both Schleich Texan Longhorns is the difference in the colour of both genders, yes the markings and the moulds are practically the same, with the figure merely standing there.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Dallas is a lovely smoky blue-black sort of shade with a smoky looking ring on her lower back and forehead and another on her haunches, aside from that she’s all black and with huge, wide sweeping horns.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Her male counterpart, Lancaster also has the same markings and pose as her, but his are more muted because he’s brown and white. His horns also seem wider, darker brown too?
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Winchester is my favourite of the three, he’s a very powerful strong figure, true to life of the real American Bisons, with a huge amount of shoulder, upper back and neck, and a massive very woolly looking hump there. He stands, all four feet planted apart on the ground and tail raised, drawn back and forming a kind of a hook. His horns are very small, as bisons are, but still very sharp. He’s also got a really flat and actually amazing profile, I love him loads and like just having him around as he gives off very strong, masculine vibes.
Rating: Texan Longhorn Cow- 4/5
Texas Longhorn Bull- 4/5
American Bison- 5/5
