It's because those are handpicked for freshness and juiciness. ;D How nice would it be if you could grow you own Carnegie dino trees. |

A CollectA tree? That would be slow to mature, bearing many deformed fruits.

How they look now is different from how they looked then, which was typically accurate of the time; the same can't be said of CollectA's early pieces. But this is a discussion better left to another thread.

Awesome ! I need a prehistoric plasti-crack fix ! ;D I know it only too well. Maybe we should start a group..Prehistorics Anonymous.. lol This forum just feeds our addiction.. ;D The Favorite Spinosaurus is a really nice piece..the coloring makes you shake your head a bit but it def has the detail..trying to convince yourself to leave it in the package and not pop it out and repaint it is a def a challenge..  |

Buy a pair and repaint one! That's what I usually do (or at least, plan) if I love a figure but am not keen on its paintwork/ colouring.
It's true, you know, the addiction. And when prey to melancholy, it only worsens. On that note, I shall go and order something this very moment...

Safari's 2011 rendition of the tyrant king - which they have also labeled "T-rex" - is the most scientifically accurate restoration currently available on the figure market. I still think the Favorite is better in that respect, but it's better than most... |

Possibly, although I tend to think of the Japanese companies differently - maybe because they have those dang awesome Kaiyodos.

Update 8/17August could be considered the month of Jorge Blanco. Why? Well, his work is just about everywhere you look. A few weeks ago, Jorge's amazing resin kits became part of Dan's Dinosaurs.  On August 2, Sideshow finally offered a complete reveal of the Stegosaurus statue, also sculpted by Jorge Blanco. It's scheduled for release sometime in 2012.  And this week, shipping has begun for the highly anticipated Sideshow Apatosaurus - a real colossus at 43" long - and once again, sculpted by Jorge Blanco.  After so much craziness in the first half of the year, I was rather hoping things would slow down by August. Clearly this hasn't been the case. And to think, Dinosaur Revolution is just a few weeks away. I am stoked.
