I think they might have scrapped it. Could be the first piece of Papo lost media.

Meh, that would make me sad. Would love a juvenile sabertooth.

Oh no, my Rebor Smilodon needs its cub :(

It would be frustrating if Papo's cub smilodon were ultimately not commercialized. I was interested in that figure.

That toy would have been a candidate for tail-shortening, as that seemed to be an obvious defect in the design. Perhaps it will be issued later?

Papo did cancel their Anaconda last year; I think there might have been difficulties with it being bendy. I'd be surprised if the smilodon cub is also cancelled though, since it shouldn't have anything out of the ordinary to it like the anaconda was going to.

Found the smilodon cub in a Dutch internet store. I ordered it, might take a while with Christmas coming up, but I'll post it if it comes in.

Ok thanks !

I wonder if they have in fact produced a very low amount of this figure for some reason.

Does the in-hand quality look like the stock picture in avatar_RobinGoodfellow @RobinGoodfellow 's post above?  That seems to indicate a superior paint application, from what i can see.

It lacks the white shades around the belly and legs, but beside that it's the same. I should look up how to post pictures without photobucket..

Flickr plus the instructions on the relevant Forum thread should work for you.

It looks great from me. It's worth the wait.

Thanks, avatar_RobinGoodfellow @RobinGoodfellow , for these images - very thorough. The finish does seems rather more glossy than the original promotional picture; doesn't look like a consequence of the ambient lighting, I'd guess. Pretty good little sculpt overall, IMO.
