| When I type "Paleocraft" in the eBay search box, it always autocorrects to "Papercraft," lol.
Thanks for your help. It may be expensive, but I'm leaning toward the Paleocraft rhino over the Greene Models one. |

| No problem, I forgot to add there is a sculptor in Taiwan who sells all 5 rhino species which are very well sculpted. He sells them on eBay and they go for about $100 USD each plus shipping. I've bought 2 models from him and he is reliable also, very prompt.
Here is a listing for finished auction for a white rhino. http://www.ebay.com/itm/White-Rhino-1-20-Resin-model-kit-animal-dinosaur-prehistory-/131018105305?nma=true&si=iPY6GzbLW9driuCM8MB7x5SornQ%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 |

| Sorry, another question: could anyone please tell me the dimensions of the Paleocraft rhino? I'm not familiar with 1/20 scale. |

| Hello JGar !! Sorry for the late reply !! I think Elephas has perfectly answered many of your questions. Just to add that this is an impressive figure and for those who collect figures on a scale hovering around 1:20 like me is perfect. The size at soulder is 9,5 cm ( male rhinos can grow to 190 cm high ) Normally established brands make some figures rhino, buffalo, elephants and giraffes disproportionate and too small for what is real and consistent level in a collection of animal figures. For example, it is ridiculous a figure of a zebra is the same size as a rhinoceros, which is not the case with this wonderful figure by Sean Cooper.

| That's a rather large figure. As a student I'm going to be hopping around from place to place the next couple years and I wonder if it isn't too large to transport easily (I'm used to working with 28mm and 54mm scale models).
It's extraordinarily impressive, I just don't want to spend $100 and regret it for some reason. |

| That rhino figure is really, really excellent.
I didn't know this section of STS existed. Glad to have noticed it! |
