| As you maybe know, the MOJÖ FUN Baribal reached my shelves a few days ago. I was really happy to have this very nice bear and I decided to make a walkaround you can see [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. I was talking with Roger about American Black bear models and our mighty croc sent me the SAFARI Ltd. Baribal . I had the SCHLEICH one... So I guessed it was the right time to organize a meeting. So here are the three bears SCHLEICH : The oldest2003 to 2010 - Scale 1:14 to 1:21 [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]SAFARI Ltd.2008 - Scale 1:12 to 1:18 [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]MOJÖ FUN2012 - Scale 1:13 to 1:17 [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

| Fantastic pictures Christophe!
All three of them are really nice. I have the Schleich and Safari and I'm looking forward to getting the Mojo. I don't know which I prefer; they are all excellent and have different virtues. The Safari is, as usually, a wonderfully realistic sculpt with paintwork that leaves something to be desired. The Schleich is one of my favorites. Putting the Mojo Fun next to the others makes me feel like it looks like a CGI bear in a Movie, but that is not necessarily a criticism. It really stands out and its pose is just wonderful.

The MOJÖ bear won't disappoint you Scott. Of course the SAFARI Ltd. is more realistic but the MOJÖ have a great mat painting and superb eyes, it has a lot of soul |

| At least I'm here in this great topic! :) About American black bears the only thing I can say is that we are lucky. We have 3 in the market and the Schleich is still easy to find so we must say 4. Yes, remember that standing Papo is not here. We have 4 very different bears, all in diferent poses and in my opinion all of them are very nice. Papo has the ferocious looking typical from Papo, very detailed and an expression according with the pose. Schleich is cute and with a juvenil looking, short legge as usual in Schleich but its cuteness doesn't destroyed the figure, it looks a very young female with an innocent looking and that had a baby recently! The Safari is extraordinarily sculpted, the best sculpt among them, also the sculptor knows got nicely the way they walk and face is indisputably from an American black bear, even unpainted it was recognizable, the worst oint of it is only the painting, layout is correct but shiny look was dispensable! Mojo not as nicely sculpted as Safari's, the pose is as good, a completely different texture and maybe too bearded giving it a feeling of large headed? The finish is superb, fantastic resin, the best black painting I know, the glossy eyes and nose gives it a excelent appearance only the option for a dark muzzle, although not wrong, removes a little the typical appearance of this animal. My favorite is Safari, only deserves a Mojo painting. |

| Thank you Jean-Luc and Roger. I think the SAFARI ltd sculpting is more realistic but the MOJÖ FUN is really well sculpted and wonderfully painted, the black is awesome and the eyes are fantastic. If both came unpainted, my favourite will be the SAFARI ltd without a doubt but they are painted and I can't choose between the MOJÖ and SAFARI Ltd. The new WW could be very fine too... I'm tempted But I guess my next bear will be the COLLECTA brown bear

| Thanks so much for posting this, Kiki! American black bears are one of my favorite species. It's great to see all of the offerings compared - My favorite is Safari, only deserves a Mojo painting. wrote:
I agree with both of you, Roger and Dutch Bear. Of course I like the Schleich and Mojo figures, but the Safari black bear is one of my favorite models. (I do wish one of these brands would give us an equally good Asiatic black bear too, though.) |
