I have some beautiful Mark Copplestone cave men figures, and would like to get a woolly mammoth, or two to join them.
Not sure which way to go with model choice?
Pure fantasy, which can be expensive,
or a kids toy I can convert?

Any suggestions on model choice, please.
The Copplestone figures are big 28mm.

Cheers

My mammoth came courtesy of the local Early Learning Centre, though I
have seen similar in various children's sections of toy shops. It would be
of a suitable size for your needs. It was purchased a few years back, but
only set me back about £7.00.

Arcane Scenery sell the Deezee range I believe.

I got one from a toy company online, can't remember which now and when painted up it was basically as nice as the other ones I have that cost $100-$400 (looking at you Chaos Mammoth). I can't take a picture of it at the moment because I am having it rebased, but you wouldn't know it was a toy and it is great size. Sorry I can't name the company but maybe google toy mammoth.

Got some from a natural history museum (you also find them in art galleries etc sometimes in the gift shop). But toy shops can give a few too. The museum ones are often cheaper, usually mixed in with dinosaurs

Hey James!
Those Deezee models are great, and not too pricey..

Look for plastic models from the likes of Papo or Schleich, that's where I grab my dinos. They can be quite huge (the Papo one is apparently 14cm tall) but for fantasy stuff I only see that as a pro.

My adult mammoths are from Safari Ltd.

About $6 each after 40% coupon.

I did conversions on head/neck/shoulders to give some variety.

Really helpful information, thanks

And Tim, if your in the States you can get the mammoths at the local places with atleast a 40% coupon.
But judging by your local time to mine I think you in Europe or the UK do that may not help.

So that's where the Deezee range went.

One more vote for the DeeZees!
