Not yet but they may if they do any Circus again.

The ears are easier to move on the new version as well. I really prefer the new one. The ability to turn the head in a broader range of motion, and being able to easily flip the trunk around really increases the posing. I think the new version can show far more emotion than the old one could.

Visually I like them both- I haven't played with the new one yet, though.

I voted for the old one because I think it is much cuter than the new one. But I do like that you can move the ears on the new one.

As to the head rotating, when you have the head turned off to the side, it looks like the elephant is swaying, which sadly is something you see them do in a lot of zoos, but it is a sign of distress and means they are bored and unhappy. I don't want any swaying elephants in my playmobil zoo!

I think both have their ups and downs...
But I like the old one best. :)

Ditto!

I haven't seen or touched either in person, but I like the old one better.  It looks more like Playmobil and looks friendlier.
