Papo's llama ze_neto February 8 2011, 11:13:41 UTC

Hello, my name is José and I live in Brazil. Since you like south american animals, I don't konw if you already noticed, but Papo's llama is actually a guanaco. Its colouring, its posture, its long and lean neck, all these features indicate that we got a different specie.

Hello, Jose! Glad to meet you!
Well, when it comes to species distinction, one can find many flaws and mistakes in animal figures even made by the top-tier brands...
By the way, are you the member of STS Forum http://schleichtiersammler.forumieren.de?

Hello, thanks for adding me as a friend. I know that flaws do occur, but I'm actually glad because made a guanaco. I've been to Chile last month and wasn't able to find guanacos or vicuñas for my collection, and when I came home and saw Papo releases I got very pleased. South American animals are hard to find even down here. There is not much of a market for local critters, unfortunately. By the way, since you like capybaras, have you seen the couple made by the japanese company Phat?

Unfortunately, Japanese-made figures are not accessible to me, so I'm not much interested in them.
And what about your collection? Ho do you store/display it?
