Papo Crocodile Mutant

The figure is wonderfully detailed and realistic. I've never seen a mutant warrior crocodile but I have seen Nile and Saltwater crocs in zoos and this guy looks just like one or the other (albeit with armor and weapons).I'm a 65-year-old child when it comes to figurines, a lifelong lover of animals, and a huge sci-fi/fantasy fan and so when I went searching for new animal figures for my 3-year-old grandson and saw this among the Papo offerings, I had to have it.I'm delighted to say my grandson has inherited my love of animals and realistic figures (apparently it skipped a generation with his dad), but I thought that he might be too young for this line of fantasy animals. I introduced him to it with the mutant ape warrior figure and it's become one of his favorites. Crocodiles are among his favorite animals and so this was a natural. I bought this one as a Christmas present so I can't report on his reaction, but I'm confident it will be positive. I like it so much I'm buying one for myself!Both the war-hammer and the sword are removable and interchangeable. None of the armor is removable or moveable which was not unexpected, but I thought it worth noting here because it seems other customers have some unrealistic expectations, in general, of these figures.The figure is made of a hard and durable plastic that I'm sure will last a very long time of heavy play, but it will not bend. The limbs are not articulated and the stance the croc comes with is the only one you or your child will ever see. Again, this is perfectly fine by me, but these reviews are meant to be helpful and I've seen that some people are disappointed when they buy a Papo figure and they can't pose it in different positions. The weapons are flexible and they seem sturdy, but they've not been tested by me. They are relatively small and can easily be lost though. I would not give them to a child younger than my grandson. He might lose them but he's not going try and eat them and risk choking.This figure isn't priced at a bargain-basement level but in my opinion, it's quality creates value in excess of its cost. If you or the child in your life are anything like me and my grandson, I feel certain that you will not be disappointed.

The paint job and attention to detail is great. The original design is fun and my son loves to play with this and the others in this line.

Sturdy little dude. Seems like he'll be around for a while despite my four year ilds best effort to get king kong to smash him.

The detail is amazing and the quality and design are great.

It is worth the money for the product, though small in size, but it is very detailed and sturdy giving a realistic picture. The accessories like sword, etc are not sturdy and hence reduce a star. Good for lifetime collection.

Now I know that used to sell this line in Target once upon a Time a long time ago and the children's toy section. You can't really find them there anymore I'm glad Amazon has them though. I started to play Warhammer and just so happens this model can make a pretty good greater daemon

I don’t know why I buy things sometimes. It just looked cool so I did. Alligator Gladiator is ready to rock and roll.

You can take the hammer out. Very detailed. My boy is happy.
