Collecta figurine manta ray model COLL0087 medium size (plastic toy, collectible)

Collecta figurine manta ray model COLL0087 medium size is a painted plastic collectible that reproduces the external anatomy and silhouette of a manta ray. The model is medium-sized and designed for display, educational use and play.
