What do you think is the most overrated/underrated dino figure?
Overrated: Jps2 carnotaurus. I mean, the thing isn't very accurate and it goes for over $100 on ebay most of the time...
Underrated: Invicta brachiosaurus(unpainted). I have never seen any "Hype" about this figure, yet it is one of the most beautiful brachios out there..

The invicta Brachio does get it's fair share of attention. It is in my top 10 figures of all time list. I think it is in other (maybe I'm thinking of yours?)

I also loved that little psittacosaurus It's just that my cat ate him I'll admit, not a fan of the feathers in the Psittacosaurus, but the figure is very well done. In fact, I think that minis in general can be a great place to increase the diversity of lines (who wouldn't want a mini Dunkleosteus?). The mini Elasmosaurus (in the Carniovorous dinos toob) is also pretty good, but the Kroonosaurus is pretty poor.

There's no feathers on Psittacosaurus last time I checked I've never seen the Kronosaurus *checks Randy Knol's page* That carnivorous dino toob looks great! They're painted the same as carnegies!

And I think I'm thinking of a different figure than the Psittacosaurus (maybe the Velociraptor? I know they have feathers, but I don't really like that particular one). And those figures come from the AMNH Feathered Dino toob. The Carnivorous toob is pretty good--most are miniatures of larger Carnegie dinos (notes: Dilophosaurus=terrible, Spinosaurus=bad, Kronosaurus not so great, Dimetrodon lovably goofy). I especially love the little Baryonyx.

6 of the AMNH figures have feathers: Dilong, Beipiaosaurus, Caudipteryx, Sinornithosaurus, Velociraptor, and Microraptor. Apatosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Pachycephalosaurus, Psittacosaurus, and Proctoceratops don't.

Overrated? Mmh...I don't know,i love all the figures i own Underrated? Easy...The Safari Ltd Dunkleosteus,one of the most beautiful figures EVER,but with not too much recognition,especially among the "non-expert" dino fans. Another underrated fig? The mini Allosaurus from Schleich...I mean,it's actually one of the best from that line,and then,it's IDENTICAL to the Raul Martin's Allosaurus from the book "National Geographic Dinosaurs"...Bonus points for me

^^^ Funny, I was going to say Dunkleosteus too. Simply astounding.
Overrated? Most of the Starlux and Procon figures.
Underrated? Invicta Baryonyx, (the best so far) Carnegie Ankylosaurus (quite possibly the best ever).

The Carnegie Ankylosaurus is simply AMAZING,and the Invicta Baryonyx...Well,in my country this line has always been REALLY underrated;through the years i managed to get only the Baryonyx,Plesiosaurus,Iguanodon and two Scelidosaurs

It looks like from the pics it has club feet...

Haven't gotten around to the Ankylosaurus yet.

Get Ankylosaurus, he's amazing! I still prefer the original Euoplocephalus, though

The Dunkleosteus is one of my favorites, and for once its a decent size.
