Nice to see another elephant review. But now the blog needs more Loxodonta africana toys!

Excellent review of an excellent figure.

But I need to point out that you refer to Dr Eugene Clarke, when it should be Dr EUGENIE Clarke.

Oof! Thanks for that, I'll fix it right away.

EDIT: Done!

@callmejoe3 - Thanks, but please note on the calendar there was a guest review scheduled for today. I went ahead and pushed it back to tomorrow since the rest of the week is, at the moment, open.

@bmathison1972 My apologies! I requested the 9th on my last post on the schedule thread. Looking back now, I realize I didn't see an explicit confirmation from you reserving the date for me, just the figures I asked for. I'll be more careful next time.

@callmejoe3 - no, it is I who owe you an apology  . I went back and read that post; I think I was so focused on adding your new reservations, I missed the reference to the 9th. I'll pay closer attention in the future LOL.

Anyway, great review of a great figure. For my bowhead, I settled for overall appearance (CollectA) over accuracy (Safari).

Fun fact: Some of you may have noticed that the eyes weren't observable for most of the photos in the review. That was a deliberate move on my part because I had already corrected the eyes on the figure and I only had one good photo of the bowhead in its original condition. Luckily for me, the animal's large mouth and rotund body made it easy to take decent photos while keeping the eyes out of frame.

I noticed that @callmejoe3, but of course now I want to see it with the corrected eyes. I've been on the fence about which bowhead to get.

Head to the customized figures thread. I posted the correct eyes a few months ago.

There haven't been any reviews for a couple days and no Guest reviews pending, so I transferred over another of my walkarounds. This one is the Safari Butterflies of the World Collector's case, following the Butterflies TOOB by @Gwangi and my reviews of the Innovative Kids and Club Earth collections

I do have a review ready for next week, not sure when I'll post it though, early in the week I guess.

I could be wrong, but I think this is the first time I've had reviews on the ATB and the DTB posted on the same day.

Maybe, your ATB reviews were historically submitted on Fridays and posted on Fri or Sat.
