Gray Whales comparison

Could I get comparison for the gray whales from Schleich (retired), Mojo and Collecta? Safari LTD, I don't really like theirs but you can throw it in there if you have it. Which would you say has the best quality paint and scuplting-wise?

So I now realize that the Schleich and Mojo gray whales use the same mold from Maia & Borges. Mojo version might be easier to acquire versus the retired Schleich, but I'm curious about the quality of plastic of the Mojo version - often not a fan of the lighter, cheaper plastic they seem to use. Still, would like to see how CollectA measures up to either one. Anyone have them?

I have them, I will take some pictures for you soon

Here you go. As you can see the CollectA is quite a bit smaller than the Schleich and Safari. Personally it is my least favorite of the three, overall the sculpt is pretty good but the 'barnacles' look really strange. The Schleich is indeed the same model as the Mojo, I do not own the Mojo but I have seen it in person, the quality of the plastic is not much worse and the paint application is very similar too (keep in mind the Schleich release had two different paint versions though).
The Safari Monterey Bay is really good too, but if it's not your favorite, I would say go with the Schleich/Mojo one.
Hope this helps! If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Awesome! Thank you so much, this will definitely help me decide which to pick (I'm leaning Schleich/Mojo).
