Its quite a bit bigger than id like but it is stunning. Im off to France for the day on saturday so I might leave it for fate to decide. Perhaps a little persuasion from me, too. It's a beautiful figure, so do get it if you possibly can. |

Thanks very much kikimalou for the various measurements and scale. Its quite a bit bigger than id like but it is stunning. Im off to France for the day on saturday so I might leave it for fate to decide. My pleasure  If the Papo is too big for you, maybe you could choose the new SCHLEICH greater kudu. height (top of horns) 11.5cm heicht at shoulders 7.3cm Lenght 9cm So a scale between 1:20 and 1:22  By the way, where will you go in France ? |

I think the Schleich is very nice too. I live near Richmond Park where there are lots of Red Deer (and Fallow) and im going to buy the new Schleich Red Deer Stag  I'd rather the Kudu roughly matches the scale of the Red Deer which I think the Schleich would better than the Papo. But saying all this I'll probably end up buying both at some point! We're going to Arras in France. Do you know it? |

We're going to Arras in France. Do you know it? I'm living in Lille which is 50 km from Arras We didnt come across anywhere suitable where we were but we drove past a HUGE toy shop on the way back. But didnt have time to stop though which was a shame. (Very nice town, had a good day) |

Check out the 1/10 series of models put out by Jonas Studios back in the day- Jonas was the guy who sculpted the famous dinos that were in the World's Fair, you can see maquettes of those on this site as well if you peruse the contents- nice small dioramas as well using these 1/10 models under dioramas heading- Jonas Studios is defunct and the family was selling off everything back in the late 90's early 00's-wonder what happened to everything- www.jonasstudios.com/studio_contents/miniatures/index.html |

Those are like what you would see in the lobby of a zoological institution or other wildlife related place. Stunning!

I'm sure most of you have seen the above already but I think I might be the first to post this one. I had some chaos getting this, through 3 or maybe 4 different companies all claiming they had stock, later to say they didn't. For me he was worth the wait. Red Deer Stag by Schleich  |

I want to get that one too - I'm waiting for a site to get the Papo Chamois in stock, then I'll order a load of animals He looks really nice though - I heard some say they don't like it, but from the pictures I seen he looks lovely. |
