Has anyone ever seen a King Cheetah figurine sold commercially? Or for sale, custom made?
Relates to possible Pleistocene stand-in.
Thank you,
Loren

Thank you, Loren Why yes--there is one from the Takara ChocoQ line:  It was always tough to find, and now it is worse, but right now the seller ig88droid on ebay (the one that made Colorata sets 'cheap' and easy to find) has one for a very good price: cgi.ebay.com/Cheetah-Choco-Q-Kaiyodo-Japan_W0QQitemZ370298526969QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_15?hash=item5637831cf9There is also a true Acinonyx pardinensis (I'm guessing the Pleistocene stand in) that was made by Ral Partha in pewter, for their BeastMasters line. That one is probably even harder to find. Of course, given that A.pardenensis was a scaled-up cheetah, it is more a matter of what a figure is placed next to. Or, for the North American 'cheetah' Miracinonyx (the other Pleistocene possibility), there is a pewter one from RLBPS (Dazed Miniatures):  Note that the figures has been painted for the picture. |
