Here is my large flocked river hippopotamus. I bought it in a dollar store back in 1996.

Nice hippo, what brand?

I have no idea. It came from a store called Dollarama. This, and the other flocked animals shown in SUY, were sold loose.

Thanks

Ohh, how I love that hippo-foal

Thank you Susanne :)

Congratulations Andreas I did not care about the adult

Thank you :)

It's a pretty little baby hippo. (Or a happy hippo baby.) Congratulation, Andreas!
I bought this one for myself before Christmas. He/she was on sale, and the last one, in my local shop.

My first and only hippo for now, CollectA's pygmy:

A beautie

I also have it and it is a figure that makes me really happy. Which one will you choose for a common hippo? For a long time, my favorite was the Papo one, though, the new CollectA seems a very serious competitor but I don't have it to compare. I have two other I think that are very good, the old Britains and the Lineol IV generation, surely not your cup of tea. :)

Will be the latest CollectA too :) it's in the same toy shop too, so maybe it will be added the next time that I go here :)

Here is my Hippo from NF. Do you remember it? I received it for free in a lot that I bought on Ebay. Its maxiliarus was broken off. With a looped screw, a little pice of wood, sillicone, sawdust and paint, I managed to make it a brand new snout. Now, it stands proudly among my other NF animals.

Yes Valérie, that's a lucky hippo. :)

My newly arrived NF Bendable Hippopotamus. I noticed our friend Landrover owns a copy of it as well.

is it really bendable?

Yes, it has metal wires running through its body and limbs.
