those are sweet did he make a para?

Oh yes, he did a Parasaurolophus. ;D Not just one, but I think there were 2 versions, in 1/30 and 1/40 scale, if i'm not mistaken.

He did two versions of T.rex, in 1/30 and 1/40 scale too.

Both of mine are 1/30. He did an 1/40 Acrocanthosaurus and Allosaurus in 1/30 and 1/40 scale.

Another species he did were Apatosaurus ajax and the 3 known Smilodon species, S. fatalis, S. populator and S. gracilis.

Velociraptor in 1/15 scale and Spinosaurus in 1/40 too.

Unfortunatelly he quitted the production some time ago... I couldn't get all models, just those in the photos.

awsome do you have pics or a site or some way to order them from the states?

Here's another thing I bet no-one else here has.



Yowie Riversleigh Marsupial Mole white variant, from the Lost Kingdoms Series C line.



The normal version is on the left. The main difference is that the normal mole has brown plastic while the variant has white plastic. Aside from that, the only other difference is the painted hairs-the normal has black hairs, the variant has dark brown.

I'm not sure how many of these were produced-I got a fair few Riversleigh Marsupial Moles when its series was out, but I only ever got one albino one. I'd be interested to know why this variant occurred, not least of which because it was not the only plastic-colour variant in Series C-the rare Dazzling Dinosaurs Plateosaurus and Chasmosaurus had variants in which their colours were switched (Plateosaurus was usually blue, and Chasmosaurus was usually yellow). I have the blue Chasmosaurus, but sadly I'm not sure where all the parts are.

Now that mole is an odd thing indeed...

I'm pretty sure I had one once, but I traded it off, along with a lot of the Yowies mammals.

Here is a DZ Metal Mammoth that is extremely detailed. Molds and figures were made many years ago by Richard Deasey I Believe. They were discontinued a few or more years ago. I put the larger tusks on it that I took from the DZ re releases which in the mammoths case was resin. Only one other person that I know of has this mammoth and he is not on the Dinosaur forum....yet.


I believe this is the largest metal mammal that any company has made at around 6 inches long and over 1 pound in weight. But, someone please correct me if I am wrong...

[thelordsgym]

Here is a Missing Links Smilodon but specially painted to like like a white Siberian tiger by a very good friend of mine.

Quite a nice piece I think.

[Libraraptor]

I am pretty sure all these cool single pieces were not all our curiosities yet...

Well, I have this weird little Plateosaurus... probably not unique at all, though.

Looks like a Chinasaur, although an unusual one. I haven't seen it before.

[sumo]

It is, he came in a bag with several of the usual shoddy specimens. At first I thought it could be a knockoff of the Marx - the pose is nearly identical - but mine's leggier and has an open mouth.

I've seen those before--it looks like a Chinasaur (possibly form Dillon) meant to represent a prosauropod. I have a similar one that is rather Anchisaurus-like, but the one you have there appears to be the larger version.

I see those on ebay a lot. Never got one though. Maybe I will. Its ugly its cute.

[[][][]cordylus[][][]]

It's probably another one, because the white one is very rare....
