AmperZand Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 I have one of the minifigure-scale moulded leopards (pictured below) and wanted to get another one on the secondary market. So I ordered one from a reputable seller and got what looks like a minifigure-scale lioness, not a leopard. It's the same mould, but a different colour and doesn't have the same printing. Its face printing consists of blue eyes, a pink nose and a white muzzle. It has no body print. Also, it is dark tan, not tan like the leopard. It's definitely LEGO, not a clone or bootleg: it has the LEGO mark moulded inside the recess of the studs on its back and a printed code inside its front right paw just like the leopard's. I haven't been able to find a lioness in any of the sets, so I'm wondering what I have. I quite like it so will probably hang onto it. But can anyone shed light on this mysterious beast? Quote
Robert8 Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Could you post a picture, please? As fas I can remember there is a mountain lion/puma somewhere in the 2018 sets Quote

deraven Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Yes, I think there's a mountain lion in the 2018 mountain police theme... maybe someone got some early parts from those upcoming sets? Quote

Yep, you've got a 2018 Mountain Lion there from next year's City Police sets, that's pretty cool! Check #legoleak on Instagram, dig a little and you'll see what I'm talking about. Quote
Roebuck Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 It is most likely the upcoming mountain lion/puma/cougar! Nice one, what did you pay if I may ask Quote

williejm Posted November 2, 2017 Posted November 2, 2017 it's nice to know it seems to be dark tan. They've really milked this big cat mould already! Bodes well i think... Quote
