Take note of this Giraffe's bad legs.

Ron, you really unlucky with the SAFARIs

I agree with you Ron, the painting is really terrible. I don't like the pose either that much, I know he's supposed to be drinking, but he looks too stiff. He's too small anyway if he's in scale with the Schleich. Thanks for the pics!

Now, you know why I am not the Safari Ltd's fan.

You're most welcome. :) At least you won't fall and feel regret after seeing this Giraffe closely. And most of all wasting your money too.

Well, i lke them, every model has its charm!

I do have much worser models made in China, and i buy them too...

If you know how to repaint it. Then, you can save the very bad paintings done to it. Otherwise, don't buy it.

Is he around the same scale as the Schleich Giraffes Ron? Could you provide more pics when you have time?

Hi Harriet, as what you have requested for. Here are some of the photos of the CollectA Eating Giraffe together with some of my Schleich Giraffe. Sorry that my newer Giraffe are not here with me in Singapore anymore.

Anyway, more or less you should be able to visualize how is the scale of this Giraffe. Here are some of the photos I just took just now:


Together with the Giraffe Bull 14099:

Together with the Giraffe Calf 14094:

Together with the Giraffe Cow 14161:


And the rest of them:




And these two trios are wishing him for a safe journey:

I am very happy for you :) It means more figures to take excellent photos once they are all arrive.

Thanks for the pics, Torben! They're very informative to me.

Having looked thru these pics I've put my eye on only one figure - Nile crocodile. The others look a bit cartoonish.
Could you take more photos of the Collecta croc, Torben? From different angles - I'd like to see its quality in detail.

The CollectA white rhino is a very fine model Kyrill, I'm sure you would like it

The zebra too but a little bit taller than Schleich. I made a all round walkaround of the zebra here :

Nice herd of giraffes you have there!

The CollectA white rhino looks fine indeed. But zebra is way too big.
