Another one from CollectA which I will definitely buy. It seems that he have not the best painting(hopefully it's just the photo )but I love the pose and his expression! Can't wait to get him!

Just WOW! So much better than Schleich lynx!

Great!! Fantastic!

superb looking

The appearance look good! Thanks Numaan!

A really great lynx

Aaaargh, CollectA is going to ruin me next year

Thanks for showing Numaan! I'm not completly excited with this figure! There's a mix between very good and not very good things in it. :)
Maybe the angle of the picture is making me see a very compact figure again? I understand some options, An European lynx is a figure hard to make and we see it in Papo and Schleich figures that are not really good figures. I don't know if this one is beter than Schleich but in some ppoints it looks better! :)
There are lot of paterns for European lynx, not also my favourite and it is missing some paler parts in the figure. The option for the tufts is acceptable even it makes me think more in very large ears more than in tufts! But is not easy tho find a better solution.
Well, what we are seeing is clearly a lynx and that's a good point in that figure, in Schleich we are seeing a short tailed cat while in Papo we see an exagerated interpretation of lynx characteristics! A figure to see in my hands!

My first impressions on this lynx are very good!
It has much more character then the last Schleich model.
I love the expression, and the way it looks out of his eyes, and pose.
The colourscheme is good, as most of the Eurasian lynxes have faded spots.
I don't think it is to chubby either, as a lynx in his wintercoat looks even more chubby.
Overall a very good model, a 8 1/2 out of 10 for me!

He's nice
I'm not sure about the paint work on the eyes, maybe his pupils could be larger?

Great! Fantastic!
Good position, nice !...

I'm not completely excited too. It looks good, but the head-turned pose is what I don't like. Although the details and paintwork are better than Schleich's, I like the pose of Schleich lynx more.

There is always something missing for me in every lynx figure... But what ?

Nevertheless, I like this lynx, it's a good attempt, far better than PAPO and SCHLEICH But I would like to see more pics or to watch it in my hands to have a more precise idea.

I like this lynx very much, and it's never too many lynxes in my collection

Great Alex, lucky you that have a local shop near you. Many people here have a lot of troubles to get CollectA figures! I agree with you but let me tell you only that I was completly disapointed with Schleich lynx baby because it is almost as large as Papo lynx!

Yes

I must agree with you Martin, we are hard to satisfy indeed, but that is because we saw so many models with lots of flaws in the last years, and now that there are some manufacturers that come near to the real animal, we want the last water out of the can i guess...
I love this lynx, the best in business for me so far.
I love the pose, and the way its looks back is actually very natural, as lynxes do that a lot when prowling around!
But when we have to look at the pupils for an animal in this scale...

Very good!! We will see also here.

The pose is awesome. As a big cat fan I most own this little lynx.

I'll definitely buy this guy!
