The mighty COLLECTA hippo lioness walkaround by Kikimalou

I know the COLLECTA lioness has a big fan club on STS, especially among the Hippo lovers    

Well, I must say I love very much this model, she works perfectly with my lion clan with the role of the young roaring lioness.

I love also the two PAPO lioness of course but there is enough place on shelves IMHO for the COLLECTA one.

So here are a few pics, I hope some will enjoy  

Ooooh, she is fantastic, Christophe
Thankyou for yet a marvellous walk around

I think my CollectA male lion needs a wife

Thank you Susanne

Thank you agian for another great walkaround!

This is a nice lion, I can't remember even looking at this model. She is much nicer than I was expecting! I like the facial expression

Thank you That's the reason why I made this walkaround indeed I guessed a lot of collectors didn't notice her nice face and the natural walking pose

Uhh, I did not think about that
I asked him , and he began to laugh , because he has a much larger mouth and can REALLY roar

Phantastic!! She looks very dangerous!! Thanks for sharing Christophe!!

Agreed: Really nice walkaround Christophe! Thank you.

I really like new collecta Lioness and lion... I think they are fantastic!

She is really great, I love the detail on her face. Thanks for the fantastic pictures Christophe

Hahah! ... a hippo!
I'm glad you decided to make a walk around of this figure. I always loved that lioness a lot. She is wild. She even look to have scars. Very expressive! Fantastic the way she touch the ground, amasing muscular expression. Crazy texture, original pose. Not perfect but excelent. As long as the brand grows in collectors taste, more appreciated will be this figure and other good CollectA previously negleted.

She is a really nice figure, great walk around! Thanks for sharing the photos!

I like the appearance of the lioness and always feel like really need a fight!

Thank you all

Enjoy! Personally, definitely prefer the Papo lioness.

Yes I prefer the PAPO lioness, and the PAPO lioness with cub, and the COLLECTA lioness... What is good with collecting is I can collect and love different models for different reasons

I hope our forum and our hobby will have the chance to avoid a "Robert Parker" classification

What's Robert Parker classification?

Sorry Robert Parker is a great Wine critic known in the whole wine's world. He established a note system for wines from 1 to 100. He is a specialist and have a great sense of smell and taste, he is also a human being with his own personal preferences. And it is a big problem because the wines which have great qualities and are in his personal preferences have great scores and the wines that could be very interesting but have a different taste, flavor or philosophy are underscored. Robert Parker have a great audience, especially among neophytes, and it means some, even a lot of winemakers are trying or will try to make wines that please Robert Parker. It is absolutely not Parker's fault but IMHO It means a disaster for diversity and civilisation one kind of coke, one kind of wine, one kind of tea, one kind of... And one kind of lion figurine style I hope we will be able to appreciate different styles for a long time

Both the Collecta and the Papo Lioness are gorgeous models. I like them both very much.
