Schleich Wild Life Realistic Male Gorilla Animal Figurine - Authentic Detailed Wild Male Gorilla Toy for Boys and Girls Education Imagination and Play, Highly Durable Gift for Kids Ages 3+

Great pose and the paint job and detail of the sculpt are so nice. We love Schleich animals at my house! The sizes pair nicely with other brands such as Papo, toymany, and other like brands.

My 16 month old loves animals. He is learning to recognize images of animals, say their names, and make animal noises. Having these realistic tangible animal toys to match the photos in his books has helped progress his association with image, name, and noise. I noticed that once he gets an animal toy that he can hold, he starts to say the name of the animal, not just the sound it makes. He still puts the toys (tails or legs) in his mouth and gnaws on them. These toys are so sturdy and made with good quality materials that I'm not concerned about him breaking off parts and choking on them. With that said, I am still cautious and do not let him play with these toys unattended. The smallest animal that we've gotten him is the arctic fox.

The figure is wonderfully detailed, accurate and realistic. As a lifelong lover of animals and someone who as a child collected and played, for hours, with animal figures, I'm thrilled that my three-year-old grandson is nuts about them too. He is specifically enthralled by "sea creatures," and I have almost run out of news ones to get for him and so I have been slowly but surely introducing more and more "jungle animals" to his menagerie. Gorillas are a particular favorite of mine and so I bought one of these for my own collection as well. As a kid, I would have died for this and the other superb Schleich animal figures and my grandson loves them too. Schleich offers a very wide variety of figures including a lot of rare and obscure species and you and the child in your life can build a very impressive menagerie if you so desire. The only possible drawback to these figures is their cost. I believe their value easily matches or exceeds their prices, but reproducing a 40 piece set of figures of lesser size and quality; that you can purchase for around $15 - $20, will cost you at least 10 times that much if you buy only Schleich figures. Their larger size is, to me, a very big plus but it can make matching them with smaller, cheaper figures a problem for older children who will be more cognizant of the difference. However, they are not so expensive that someone can't afford to collect them over an extended period of time - assuming the child in your life maintains, as I did, his or her fascination with animals for a period of years. As gorillas go, this figure is the best available. A word of mild caution: It is made of nearly indestructible plastic and is very rigid. It will not bend and can't be posed in different positions. My grandson doesn't seem to mind, but some kids like "squishier" animal figure...this one is not "squishy."

This gorilla looks very realistic and has such great attention to detail. It is a dream toy for any child or for any collector. It is a bit heavy and has some rough edges for young children but other than that it looks like the spitting image of a real gorilla.

These Schleich animals are exquisite! I still have some that were my children's and now my grandchildren love them. I have a couple ahead and when they come over I bring out a new one or two which makes their eyes light up! I try to also buy a book that has something to do with the animal to extend the learning which is so fun. I did this with my own children, for the tooth fairy gift, or something to bring out in the car or hotel when traveling. Such a simple pleasure that helps their creativity, learning and appreciation of animals. The boys love the fierce tigers, bears, lions, gorilla, etc. and often have them fight each other. This is just boys, and so much better for their aggression and energy than shooting each other with toy guns (which I don't allow at my house).

He's not the biggest gorilla they've ever seen, but the kids love him!

Warmth??? Ummm...no, but I also didn’t expect that. He’s made of a fairly hard plastic and nicely detailed. He’s the mascot of our new camper van. The only thing I would’ve liked is for his silverback to be more prominent.

Got this for a toy and a cake topper for a King Kong party. It worked great and is wonderful for the kiddo to play with!

A mi hijo le encantan los animales y últimamente le llama mucho la atención el gorila. Queria encontrar uno que estuviera bien hecho y se notara que esvun gorila. Es absolutamente perfecto, tiene un nivel de detalle espectacular, la mirada, la forma, el tamaño, todo. Desde que llego a casa mi hijo no lo suelta, incluso duerme con el. Comprare mas de esta marca. Muy recomendable

الخامه ممتازه التفاصيل رائعة جدا الحجم يبدو اكبر في صورة العرض

Ho acquistato questa figura del gorilla maschio WILD LIFE (6 x 10 x 8 cm) e posso confermare che è davvero resistente. Nonostante il tempo e l’uso frequente, è ancora in ottime condizioni, senza segni di usura. I dettagli sono ben curati e il materiale è di qualità, robusto e durevole. Ottima scelta per chi colleziona o per i bambini che vogliono giocare senza preoccuparsi di rovinarla facilmente. Consigliata!

Theses animals are extremely well made,also very life like. Will give any child hours of fun

Good quality, weight but it will be great if toy was big or price was little less as this price is high for such small size.
