Schleich 14838 Schneeleopard

The fur texture is nicely done, with just enough detail to make the rosettes stand out without looking messy. My kid immediately added it to their animal collection and hasn’t put it down since.

The rosettes on this one are so crisp and well-defined that it actually looks like a tiny photo of a real snow leopard. I keep picking it up just to look at the grey fur shading between the spots. A lovely little figure for a shelf or a nature-themed play scene.

I was pleasantly surprised by how realistic the pale gray fur looks up close. The black rosettes are painted with a lot of care, and my son hasn’t put it down since it arrived.
