Colorata dinos

[sbell]

So--I get to the city of Calgary, where I can access the Colorata website. And I finally get to see their new dinosaur lines, which they've updated. And now I am sad that they are sold only in zoos, museums and aquaria in Japan. So someone out there in Japan (or Hong Kong, Korea, China, or somewhere else that can get there easily) you need to get on this:

Cretaceous dinos 1:


Cretaceous dinos 2:


Jurassic dinos 3:


It doesn't always work, but for those who can see it, here is the entire Colorata site:
colorata.com/onlineshop/index.html

I have a few sets--Sea Turtles 1, Fossil fishes, Salthingyer fishes, Sharks & Rays (plus a few individuals, like the Saltie croc and tuatara), and they are all awesome. But my friend that lived in Korea & Japan could only get me those ones (mostly because I didn't think of it until she was almost ready to leave), and the only other source was UDF on ebay, and he has disappeared.

Salthingyer fishes - I really need to modify forbidden words.

The mosasaur has a distinctly pliosaur-like feel.

s-bell,

How big are these?

[tomhet]

Oh god, I want those marine reptiles so much.

Are those deinonychosaurs featherless? ;D

I have the gallimimus; the first part of this set was being offered by udf_animal on feebay till his account was suspended.

^^^ I remember now! I hope somebody else sells them on feeBay.

They look like lovely figures, I especially like the Dilo and the Galli. The archeopteyx isn't bad looking either!

Thats a pretty sweet looking mosasaur also...

The size seems to vary--the croc, swordfish and whale sharks are all about 4"-5" long, while some are quite small. They are not to scale with each other, but all are fairly small, and mostly match well with the Kaiyodo/Kabaya/Bandai types.

I always wondered what happened to him--I purchased many things from him over the years, and then one day he vanished. Too bad, because he carried things that no one else did, and helped keep the prices down (compared to say, Toy of Spark or whatever his name is).

udf_animal was probably expelled from eBay because his feedback percentage and "Detailed Star Ratings" went below feebay norms--he certainly did frequently take his time to send packages , and he doesn't respond to emails. Still, I wish he was still on eBay. Toys of Spark is price gouging because he is now practically a monopoly
