| Hello, knows everybody this figurine of Plaho? This Tapir should be produced for a short time in 1979, but coloring was too expensive so Plaho decided to make the simplier Lowland tapir [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Gosh, it is BEAUTYFUL I have never heard about it. It must be very, very rare to find. Something to go looking for by the people who find old Plaho where they live |

| Any news about this variation? Or maybe it was just a collectors re-paint... _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| No news, but the author confirmed to me the error. The matrix was not black, he was painted black. The figure is just a hobby painting, he would not confirm, however. Mistakes happen ever again ... |

| I think he felt himself a little of its history ...
Unfortunately, very little is known about the Plaho figures... |

| I was just thinking, it's funny, how there are many Malayan tapir figures, but not many(any) of the Bairds, Mountain, or Brazilian.... |

| Tobi is so careful. Ancient History: He believed me more than a year not, that there were moose from Plaho. It was only when he found himself moose, he believed me. I was glad he took the moose. Before that, he did not believe me simply. I felt almost like a liar and was sad. The proof made me happy and proud. [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Good that Tobias found out. I do have his catalogue to, and in there the moose was only made after the time of Plaho, so a later Marolin model. You are never to old to learn, we all know! But i guess, the monkee and apes groups are all from the later Marolin time, isn't it? _________________ http://www.collectorsquest.com/collector/1313/willybacoman

| Someone may have asked you this question before, but I will ask "What is the ratio of the Plaho figures? Are they all the same ratio or scale or are they different sizes like other companies?"
I really like your Plaho figures. :)
