Description
Immerse your Wild Life collection in the rivers and marshes of Africa with this wonderfully detailed Schleich Wild Life Hippopotamus figure! This lifelike model captures the characteristic barrel‑shaped body, broad snout, and sturdy legs of one of Africa’s most iconic megafauna. While real hippos aren’t the best swimmers, they spend much of their day in water or on riverbanks — a fascinating behaviour that this figure helps bring to life through play and display. Carefully sculpted and hand‑painted, this figurine inspires imaginative storytelling, educational exploration of animal behaviour, and wildlife adventures for children. It’s durable enough for interactive play and makes a striking addition to any Wild Life toy scene.

Nice Addition
I held off on getting this hippo for a few years because I didn’t think it was as detailed as the previous hippos I have. I was pleasantly surprised though when I received it. The detailing isn’t quite up to par with the earlier figures, but it is better than some of the newer ones. The weight of the figure is also excellent. Very solid.

Quality is so good
When we first started buying animal figurines about a year ago, we bought several from Mojo and a lot from Schleich. I can easily tell which figurines are from which brand. The ones from Schleich have held up to tons of play by an 7-8 and 2-3 yr old! The ones from Mojo have area of paint rubbing off which started pretty early on. I definitely know where I will buy from more in the future!

Simply the best!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All the Schleich animals have been big hits with my grandkids. While my grandkids “specialize” in jungle animals they have loved all the “Schleichies” they have received. The animals are realistic and beautifully made.

Excellent quality and service
This was bought with other animals since we had bought some previously from a variety of retailers, including one in Italy. The quality and detail is what separates this from other plastic animals.

Feet not accurate
The hippos feet do not have any detail. This may seem pedantic but they have cloven feet which is how you know which animal family they are a part of (all other ungulates I’ve bought here have cloven feet.) You don’t need to pay $9 for an anatomically inaccurate hippo.
