Your spino seems to have colors mine doesn't have! Like some blue on the sail and pink connective tissue in the mouth.  I think those are there on all of them, they normally just appear more subtle. Unfortunately I don't have mine to inspect but I'm pretty sure the 'jaw adductor muscle' on the Spino graduates quite subtly from the grey skin colour to a more fleshy colour. |

The Allo looks confused and not really evil at all. Yet I like it, have one, too.

I thought the stego was a littlebit more greenish, is that because of the flash?

I've thought about buying that - I really like that it's feathered (and resembles a model that Luis Rey worked on) but the teeth look rather crude, which has put me off. Any thoughts? It's the best PVC Feathered Velociraptor out there. The teeth could be modified by some on this blog. Of course if someone did it for you it would cost you.  Would you say is the most scientifically accurate Raptor figure? Also, I would like one, and I would like to have a human figure to stand beside it to expose the true size of the Raptor... but what scale would be good for this? Any thoughts of some human figure that could fit? |

Any thoughts of some human figure that could fit? Well, real Velociraptors are pretty small. Here's the thing--the figure length is 9.25"; the real thing is 81.5" long (so about 1/9). But the figure height is 4", while the real thing is about 20" tall (so about 1/5). So assuming a 5'10" adult male--58"--you'll have a human that's 6.5" tall (roughly) if you go by length; or ~12" tall if you go by height. Personally, to give a more dramatic representation of the size differential, I would suggest a 12" figure--so, a G.I.Joe action doll (or a Ken Doll). At least, those are based on the numbers I got from WIkipedia (for the real animal) and from TGF toys (for the figure). |

Schleich Schleich Schleich. To get even Carnegie or Bullyland you have to go online. Are there not any Dutch websites selling imported dinosaurs? You could presumably buy from French or German sites, otherwise I can recommend you some UK ones. |

Massive! Don't you have the whole line by schleich stoneage? I have all but this years releases. I think I'm going to be more selective in the future. I just can't afford to buy all the schleich and procon releases. I'm just going to buy those that I think are good or appeal to me. |

As much as I would love to be a completist: Without this selective style I would be broke in a week or so ;D |
