A little, black panther... Maybe Heinerle?

A nice, German seller from Ebay, gave me this lovely, little models as a gift.
It is made from hard rubber, and it seems like a somebody made a nice design, nice material, but, uhhh, the finish !!!!

There is nothing written on it, - does anybody know what it could be ?

Maybe a Britain's figure but I don't think.  

Thankyou, Florian, but I don`t thik Britains either  

The material is like rubber, not plastic .

I cant help but a interesting catch Susanne

Definately not Britains.

Hi Susanne

I don’t know the manufacturer but it isn’t a Britains model. Seems that the inspiration for the pose comes from Elastolin:

hmm... Maybe it was a copy/casting experiment?   

WOW! Thankyou, Chris   

A-J, yes the poor thing surly looks like an experiment

You are welcome Susanne - it was just a chance find when I was looking for new models to add to my collection in 2014!   

Anne-Joke - I am thinking the same as you.  

Susanne, I think, Lennart and Chris are right. Some month ago, I found in a parcel with Hausser Elastolin animals also this figurine.
It´s soft plastic. Your one looks like a copy of this panther. I think, he is perhaps from Elastolin. Perhaps Willy knows more ?

WOW!!! There he is   

Thankyou Yvette and all of you ! STS is just as good as the members, and that means SIMPLY THE BEST !!!      

I have this 40s-50s.

Welcome here Rof    I guess your black panther is a VEB Plaho.

At least this one is from the Spanish brand Oliver

Hello,
the black panther from Susanne is the Tarzanpanther of HEINERLE.
You can find information about the black Tarzanpanther in the Collector-Guide-Book about "HEINERLE-WUNDERTÜTEN". The Tarzanpanther is made of different material and painted or unpainted.
I have a Tarzanpanther made of weak material like rubber (or happend a chemical prozess? changing the plastik into weak plastic?) and I have Tarzanpanthers made of "strong" plastic and painted or not painted.
See also the difference of HEINERLE-Tarzanpanther and the PLAHO-Panther.

Thank you Babdo, an old mystery solved

I need this book

Many thanks Babdo!
