Gaur is my wish list that I hope it will be in future product under major brands (Schleich, Papo, CollectA, Mojo, etc.).    

A very nice and interesting animal!!! I have not know that NewRay have a gaur.

I didn't know Britains made a Gaur! The Newray is nice too!

Congratulations on these beautiful Gaur Ney-ray

Congratulations for your new New Ray gaur and also for your old Britains gaur. The 2nd is in my wish list! :)
Nice picture from a real gaur!

Congratulation I never heard about that NewRay gaur... A great find

Now I know NewRay created one!!

As far as brands, with all do respect to Britain's, "Anna" Gaur is still the BEST!

They are wonderful

I did not know that there WERE any gayrs on the matket, and you have TWO

Do you know how old they are ?

Thankyou very, very much for sharing

I bought Britain Gaur from "Hamleys" toy store in London around 13 years ago.

While NewRay Gaur was in box set that I bought in my country, Thailand, around 4 years ago.

Agree with baltimore zoo, Anna gaur is the best with high details

Was any other animals in this set?

I also agree with BZ, which Ana's figure is not the best??? Anyway those you showed are also very interesting. I hope to find the Britains one day.

Of course, you can't compare Ana's work with these 2 guys, but the Britains was the first there was in the 1980's...
I didn't knew that New Ray made a copy of the Britans model, but as they stopped producing wildlife, it was obvious that some company would show up with a model from this mould...

Sorry that I cannot remember which animals were in the box set after unpack. Due to most of them duplicated with my other NewRay collection such as giraffe, zebra, african rhino, hippo, elephant, etc. One box set had one unique/large size figure like this gaur. Another box set also had one large size of Indian Rhino. See its picture below.

After compare Britains & NewRay Gaur mould, I think NewRay didn't copy from Britains. They're totally difference. Especially the shoulder, neck & legs.

What a beautyful Rhino

If ever you have time, is it possible for you to show us your collection of New-Ray figueres ?
I only know the smal ones that are on a sort of "base" .

Thanks for showing the rhino.

I saw some copy's through the 43 years of my collecting...
I am pretty sure they used the Britains mould, they just look to similar.
They only changed some parts of the animal to not get in any problems i guess, that is nothing new to...
