Cool thread to see, curious which other companies' extinct entries hold up to the 1/35 scale in similar standards to Eofauna's figures!
Me too, avatar_Ankyloranodon @Ankyloranodon , it's a bit of a thorn in the flesh for me too. BTW, please check out my collections thread from earlier in 2023, I believe, and you'll see my collection of 1/30 to 1/35 scale proboscidians, also the 1/40 scale ones, as well as the 1/20 group, which occurs later in the thread, more recently.
@Ankyloradon, this may be useful:

One more addition, a newer Safari bull African Bush Elephant. This one shows a marked improvement in integument and skull size over the old 1998 one with its 1/24  head on a 1/32 body ( a common practice back in the day). Now I just need to see Eofauna's hoped for 2023 proboscidian release, the main reason that I acquired all of these extant elephants for comparison purposes (past, present and future).



It joins the herd of extant elephants acquired this year -

Yet more additions to my herd, this time two more Safaris, but really old ones, 2003. You can see how far Safari has come since 2003, the original release dates of this African mom and baby pair -





Mom in particular looks like she's suffering from a case of elephantiasis (no joke intended).
