Product Type: Mini Figurines

Every other animal in this collection stands on four legs or lies flat. A meerkat stands on two, balanced on a tripod of hind legs and tail, and that is a considerably harder shape to mold at an inch than anything on all fours. It is also the reason these stay visible on a busy table.

  • Upright on two legs. The only bipedal pose in the whole range.
  • Tail acts as the third leg. A tripod, which is what keeps it from tipping backward.
  • Head held high. Sits above the clutter of four legged figures.
  • 192 to a bag. One sculpt, roughly an inch tall.

Standing on a Tripod

Two legs alone would balance the entire figure on a contact patch no wider than a pinhead. Bringing the tail down to the ground turns it into a three point stance, which is why these hold their pose instead of falling backward.

Why They Stand at All

Meerkats take turns as sentries, one animal standing tall while the rest forage, and it calls out at the first sign of a raptor overhead. The upright posture is a job rather than a habit, which makes a group of them on a table a scene rather than a row.

Questions About the Meerkat Minis

Why is it standing up? That is the sentry posture, taken in turns while the rest of the group forages.

Does it topple easily? No. The tail reaches the ground and forms a third point of contact.

How tall is one? Around an inch, standing higher than the four legged figures beside it.
