| A few new papos arrived this month to :) [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]This months additions are Ok, no more no less. Not some of the best papos, but I still like most of them. The roosters and squirrle are pretty nice :) But I´m disapointed about the lynx. you are used to papos cats beeing close to perfect, but not this one Some parts of the body looks kind of nice, but I dont know, it looks a little wierd. And the head IT`S COMPLETELY FLAT! (sorry for yelling ) Not good at all papo, shame on you But at least I got a good laugh when I opened the package. Have you ever seen anything this ugly [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| Congratulations Anna, so many Papo! Waw! :) I agree completly with you and it's nice to have not good opinions with our own figures! I don't like this lynx too, is completly bad balanced, has the old stile of Papo and the sizes are completly wrong! Papo is nice in big cats but not in small cats! :) About the farm figures I think that the new bulls and cows are great but I'm not the right person to talk about farm animals! |

| Congratulations Anna! I do own the Charolais Bull and buying this is to match with Schleich Charolais cow. Frankly speaking their early version of cow sculpting was not appealing at all. For 2010 releases is not bad.
the lynx is really bad and would like to suggest them to re-made a new version and completely unacceptable. |

| Yes ladies and gentlemen, the ugly beige bull is accually Papo I will try and post a closer pic of the lynx tomorrow, Susanne, I´m way to tired now I agree with you, ken yeo, they should realy do another lynx, and focus a little more on the head. I honestly dont get it, they are so good at bigger wild cats, why not the smaler |

| I managed to find myself some nice new papo last month, as I places a big order at modelpferdeversand. As always, I have some mixed feelings when it comes to their horses, but the thoroughbreds I realy like, and the black/white shire is in my opinion on of the best papo horses (of the once I have seen) The limosine cows are realy good, they have gotten much better in making cows, and the brown/white calf is realy cute. Now I only have to get his parents too [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I got some wildlife too, including the magnificent nile crocodile. It is accually a little smaler than I though, but wow, it looks good I´m accually happy with al the new wild animals I got, like the amazing angry tigress, but my favorites has to be the meerkats. I think these meerkats are the best I have ever seen, the sitting one is soo cool, and they all look very alive, much better than the schleich ones. So if you like meerkats, and dont have the papo ones, buy them! [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] |

| It's always a pleasure to see such nice figures in nice hands! I also want these meercats and of course it is the 2nd best crocodile, I am the absolutly best! It's curious, I love this crocodile, it's absolutly fantastic and dramatic but it is still not in my collection, very very expensive here! |

| Yes, that black and white Shire, from your photo looks like a very nice figure! The Nile croc is gorgeous! I love mine! The skin texture and detail is awesome! I like the meerkats as well, just too big for a savannah scene if placed with other figures. |

| What a gorgeous batch, Anna And you got TWO of the old, dark Exmoor-ponies, wow Judging from the catalogues they were only made in 2003, then they changed to the bay version I LOVE the older Papo-horses. They are very differnet from other horse models, full of detail and a tiny bit caricatures, stressing what is special about that kind of horse. Ohh, I must have those meercats |

| When my mum bought me the Papo meerkats, they were sold separately by a collector in Greece and she only got 2 of them. I am missing the crouching one. I wonder how will I get it now.... |

| @Baltimore; The croc sure is great I agree that the meerkats are a bit big for a display with other animals, but just think how smal they would have to be for them to fit with for example an elephant @Susanne; Thanx I´m not sure I agree with you on the older papo´s. Sure, they might look a little cute, but most of them only look wired and funny to me If any of you have an extra bay color of the old papo pony, I´m happy to trade with one of my dark ones @Wildheart; Ye, that might be tough. I dont know if they are sold seperatly anywhere @Harriet,ken yeo; At an online shop here in sweden, they sell the nile for 325 sek, and 1euro is about 9sek yes, the shire is realy good |
