| Another new 2023 release from Safari, an updated arctic fox! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I think this model is a good upgrade from Safari's previous model. The proportions look better to me and I like the walking pose. Nothing too spectacular but I couldn't say no to another fox I like how fluffy this one looks. Now some comparisons!

| Surely the old version needed a upgrade as you mentioned. I like that they preserved the furry looking of the predecessor to contrast with the short-haired Schleich. Those comparisons are really useful. My opinion about the model is the exact same as yours and of course I can't also avoid a fox. |

| Great comparison, Jolie. the larger one is marketed at 1:9 scale so, using your picture, the smaller one is about 1:13. |

| Thank you for the comparison pics Jolie So it is just a bit too big for the Arctic hare Papo and Schleich size match better. Nevertheless it is beautiful |

| Jolie, although I'm not that obsessed with sizes, I delight in these comparison photos. They are always very helpful, and you have been tireless. I hope you never get tired of so many photo requests we make on the forum; I know it's a lot of work from preparation to sharing the pictures here. We can't ignore the fact that the Safari Arctic hare has its hind legs stretched out. If they were folded under the body as is traditional in rabbit replicas, the figure would look much smaller. I have the Papo version and many other figures to buy; otherwise, I would have no doubt in acquiring this Safari model. |

| I’m always happy to help out with photos! Comparisons often help us decide if we are going to get a figure or not so it’s always a great help. Knowing the size online doesn’t always make it clear.
As for the Safari hare it’s a really nice model. I was skeptical to get it for some time because of the size but I’m really glad I got it. It’s wonderfully sculpted and I’m happy to still see it in Safari’s current lines.

| To put it simply, a few years ago I let my Papo arctic fox go when the Kaiyodo joined my shelves. I've regretted letting him go ever since, he would have been perfect with my other 1/12 scale Arctic animals. Alas, he's nowhere to be found . So I'm looking for a replacement, the Safari Ltd is very nice but a bit too big for 1/12. All I have left is the latest Schleich as an option. |
