Here's the full set of my current Carnegie dinosaurs. As you can see, I don't have any of the newest figures that were released in the past few years. If any of them look old enough to have special value, let me know. Sorry for the picture quality.    |

Love the Carnegie Corythosaurus. One of my favorites.

Ain't she a beaut? I remember picking her up the first moment I saw her, over a decade ago, in a little gift shop in Hawaii.

I remember the secondary T-Rex, which I got from my aunt on her wedding day.
I think our avatars came from the same artist.

Wow, I want that poster. Where's Pachyrhinosaurus, though?
I like how they give the Brachiosaurus lots of color to make him look "weird". Maybe being introduced to the species at three years of age spoils most of the "weirdness" for me.

Hey there dino collector. Could you tell me the measurements of the Carnegie Brachiosaurus and maybe even seen a picture of it next to a Apatosaurus separately? I have ordered one but I keep getting mixed measurement numbers from sites.

It might depend on what you've ordered. Both the Brachiosaurus and Apatosaurus have changed substantially over the years - all I have are the older versions, so the dimensions I give you won't be accurate. Your best bet would be Safari Ltd's official site.

Hi Dan,

It looks like the head of the original Maiasaura to me

Yeah, if you're talking about the first photo, that's the head of the original Maiasaura. She's sitting on her nest, which was later decided to have been likely to crush the eggs (I kind of figured they'd be okay if the nest was deep enough, but oh well). The resculpt can be seen nearby, featuring a slimmer Maisaura with a separate nest of hatchlings.

Hey Dan, Its cool just going off the measurements you have for yours. I am sure they are the same. My apatosaurus looks the same. I just seen some site say that Brachiosaurus measured 22 in long and that does not sound right. Because they have it so Vertically high so. I noticed some posting saying 11.75 long and 13.75 tall. Is that correct in what you have? And the picture was to just see it scaled to another dino I have but if you can't or it is too much trouble, its cool.  |

I just measured mine to get the approximate dimensions.
Brachiosaurus: 11" high, 14" long
Apatosaurus: 5" high, 17" long
If you want to get a good discount on any figures, let me know and I can place an order in my store.
