Does this thread do scales? What's the scale for Schleich's Anhanguera? (I think it's 1:40, but I'm not sure)
Yes, youīre right itīs 1/40. Got my "Chinasaur" lot / Waiphoon today and I am surprised. The Chasmo definitely has a ROM feel to it, the Pterosaur is a nice Rhamphorhynchus (I donīt know of any other long-tailed Pterosaurs out there?). And the "Ornithopod" in the background was a quadruped Deinonychus (!) scratching his head with the hind claw, what makes it tripod, haha. And yes, there was a Stygimoloch among them (at least thatīs my interpretation). The bipedal on the front right is a Ornitholestes with feather crest (!). Pretty much WWD style. This lot was a cool surprise. I mean, I donīt buy Chinasaur every day and theyīre hollow. But I must admit I like them.

I have a few of the larger Waiphoons like Corythosaurus, Styracosaurus, Allosaurus and Brachiosaurus and some of them are alright for accuracy. The Styracosaurus in particular is excellent, being based off Battat, and the Corythosaurus is a good customization platform.

The waiphoon deinonychus is in some of my dioramas and the figures based on plaleoart threads. I'm surprised you haven't seen it before!
And I always got the impression the deinonychus was running, not scratching its head.

Youīre right, Cordy, I still donīt exactly know what he does, but he definitely does not scratch his head. If heīs running, why does he look beakwards so statically?

Deinonychus lived with big beasts like Acrocanthosaurus when it was alive millions of years ago. Maybe he's checking for some. The only reason I think they put the hands on the ground is so it can stand.

It looks...well somewhat handicapped...Yet I like it. Itīs not the only tripod raptor figure out there but probably the most extraordinary tripod one ;-)

WHAT ARE THESE??
They totally look like INVICTA, but they are actually different molds... The seller says the material appear to be BRONZE. These are NOT by SRG or ALVA... The figure has much more detail than either SRG or Alva dinosaurs. It has textured 'skin', detailed teeth and even a slightly protruding tongue
the T-REX measures 5" tall and about 9" from its nose to the tip of its curved tail. The TRIKE measures 7" long.
There is also a Dimetrodon? Sphenacodon? that is not related to the Invicta designs, but appears to be part of the same collection of the previous ones:
What are these???
I like them very much. They are already been sold on Ebay, but shipping cost to Spain is way too high because of the weight of the bronze... I recommend anyone who can to get them and enjoy them for me, they are way beautiful.
