SchleichAfrican Elephant Male

We were so impressed with the weight and detail of this elephant. It feels durable and looks almost real. You can tell it’s built to last. A favorite in our animal collection!

These Schleich animals are exquisite and adorable! The quality is excellent and I know my son will get countless years of play out of them. We bought these, along with a variety of other African, farm, and woodland Schleich animals, for my son's 2nd Birthday party - which was party animal themed! I knew they'd be a good investment because their use would last long after the party! (I don't have a picture of the elephant, but I've included one of some of the other animals.) I made the mini party hats for the animals to wear and I think it made a big impact, decor-wise for the party. I couldn't recommend Schleich more!! Despite how young my son is, he's already enjoying imaginative play with them, and I know he'll continue to for a long time!

A beautiful toy. Nice size, sturdy, nicely weighted, but the quality of this one doesn’t seem as good as other Scleich animals we have.When it arrived, the tusks were bent so much they were touching, and the legs were slightly wobbly. The paint job seemed rushed with tusks and mouth barely painted, and some of the tusk paint on the face. Also, My child played gently with it off and on for an hour today and the paint is already wearing off.

Great quality! I love that schleich is realistic! I did a lot of research on different animal toys for my kids and decided on schleich. I wanted something realistic so they would know what the actual animals look like. Yes they are small so keep that in mind. The elephant is much larger and heavy duty. I'm so happy I purchased these and I can't wait to add to the collection!

These are such great quality animals.

For whatever reason I put off buying an elephant figurine for my grandson’s collection. Maybe I was focused on some other animals I thought seemed more unique. Lately I began buying some of the African animals and decided to add on the male elephant (had to have the tusks!). Truly this figurine is one of most gorgeous, if not the #1 of all the figures I’ve bought!! The picture doesn’t even come close to how beautiful this male elephant is!

We own these instead sizes. They’re not inexpensive but feel they’re worth the price.

We love Schleich figurines for my children as the educational value & play created from them is wonderful in these early years. I will say the size of this elephant & weight are truly fantastic as well detail even showing they veins in the eat. I am giving 5 stars BUT I will say the paint quality of the one I received looks like it was rushed. The tusks are almost the same color as the elephant & Ive seen this exact one in stores & that didn’t seem to be an issue on those clearly showing whiter tusks. Some of the tusk paint got heavy handed on the trunk rather than on the tusks themselves. It also looks like the one I received may have been played with as paint seems to have rubbed off on the back foot. Not a big enough worry for me to return it as it will be played with my by 3 & 1 years olds but figured I’d note it hoping for a little more quality control. I think my children will love it & get a lot of play from it.
