Marx Beaver Walk Around

Much inspired by the other walk around threads here I decided I must do this one.
This is the North American Beaver Castro canadensis, produced by the Louis Marx Company in the 1950s. They were made in Marx mold PL-770, the large forest animals.
It is part of the Forest Animals series sold in boxes or as part of some playsets. Always in soft plastic the usual colors are tan, cream and brown with occasional grey ones.
The one you see here is in tan plastic. The color doesn't show accurately in the photos but it is a nice smooth color.
In my opinion this is the most accurate toy NA Beaver I have seen, much better in shape than any of the current brands have done so far.

The size on this beaver is 40mm, about 1 and a half inches
The Marx Forest Animals is a good series and this is the best of that group I think.
That's all for this post, I hope you all enjoy seeing him.

That is an absolutely fantastic model

You are right, - I haven`t ever seen a better model either. You can almost see him gnawing, - totally absorbed in his work...WOW

Thankyou for this great walk around, Tim

This beaver is excellent as all the animals from this serie !

Thank you for the fine walk around.
