Happy 2020 to everyone! I'm going to kick off the new year by trying to get hold of my second top grail figure, the large Boto River Dolphin by PlayVisions. I've only ever seen one come up on eBay, and she had been up for three years but of course right as I go to buy her, she is sold  :'(
So, if anyone has this figure, please let me know. I am very open to hearing what you would want pricewise for her, and then we can work from there.
Thanks guys!

Ohhhhh!!! I was completely unaware of the existence of this figure and now I want it!!! If I find it some day I will tell you so we both can purchase it.

I can't even find absolutely none result looking for it at Google. It's said to have 6-7- inches in Toy Animal Wiki, which translates to 15,24 to 17,78 centimeters. Slightly too big I think, when compared with the CollectA Ganges river dolphin, but... I can stand with it.

For me when I put Play Visions Boto into google nothing comes up in web but in images that pic you used comes up. When I click on the photo it redirects me to picclick.de and there it says it costs 40 euros plus shipping. I don't know if this is old data, but I hope it helps @_lyds__
Don't I take long uploading photos!

Well I've found their company website www.playvisions.com. There is a section where you could contact them and ask for one if they still have the moulds. I asked Schleich to make me a pair of female ostrich. As well as giving me the most recent ostrich they also gave me the retired one from 2010. This shows that brands keep their old moulds. Also CollectA has reused their tapir mould for their new release this year.

Oh, nothing appeared in Google Images when I searched, despite I've searched with different combinations, using also "river dolphin" instead boto, PV instead play visions, and including or exclusing the item number. I've only found a long time ended eBay auction :(
