| Not as are as a Saola model, the Scimitar oryx isn't a very widely produced animal in the toy history. So it is a good news to see COLLECTA making one for 2013. Some will notice the tribute to an old French brand . The scimitar oryx (Oryx dammah) is a species of Oryx now extinct in the wild. It was once widespread in northern Africa. Its decline began as a result of climate change, and later it was hunted extensively for its horns. Today, it is bred in captivity in special reserves in Tunisia, Morocco and Senegal. This spiral-horned antelope stands a little more than 1 meter at the shoulder. The coat is white with a red-brown chest and black markings on the forehead and down the length of the nose. The calves are born with a yellow coat, and the distinguishing marks are initially absent. The coats change to adult colouration at 12 months old. They formed herds of mixed sexes of up to 70 members, usually guided by the bulls. They inhabited semideserts and deserts and were adapted to live in the extreme heat, with their efficient cooling mechanism and very low requirement of water. Scimitar oryx feed on foliage, grasses, succulent plants and plant parts during the night or early morning.

| je trouve vraiment l'oryx magnifique. J'ai fait aussi une commande de collecta 2013 il y a deux semaine sur MPV et j'ai les 4 antilopes ,le guépard, le diabloceratops et le pachycephalosaurus qui est vraiment beau lui aussi. Collecta s'est vraiment super bien améliorer en à peine 2 ANS. |

| It doesn't amtter how good are your pictures. For any reason I don't find the figure atractive in them. Maybe because there is a divinal Harriet oryx? Maybe because that is the less beautiful of all oryxes? Maybe because it is in a extremed pose? Maybe because the head is to high for my taste? Well, I don't know... I only know that after having it in my hands I just started loving it, exactly in opposition with what happened with Papo oryx. I love the movement, the powerful way back body invads and pushes the figure forwards, CollectA line is turning fantastic! |

| This is a truly wonderful model, and no need to say that your photoes are magnificent, Christophe (o)): Roger is right, for some strange reason THIS model feels almost alive and full of power when you have it in your hand ! We are so lucky to live in a time where these awesome models appear on the market |

| I really like how they have managed to capture the running motion. It looks very natural. The paintjob is really nice as well. Well done CollectA! |

| Great walkaround Christophe. I have not been terribly enthusiastic about the CollectA scimitar Oryx. But your pictures are making me reconsider.
The starlux oryx is gorgeous! (I can see why Shawn is on the look-out for it now.)
Also, when I first saw the picture of the CollectA oryx with Harriet's Gemsbok, for a brief moment I thought it was the Papo Gemsbok -- and it crossed my mind that the CollectA figure must be much bigger than I thought it would be. Then I realized it was not the Papo figure, but the figure that Papo copied!
Wonderful pictures. Thank you! |
