Hi all,
I've given this a lot of thought over the last few months, but I've come to a big decision. I'm going to shut down the forum. It has become too much of an emotional and time-consuming drain on my life. At the end of the day, it just isn't worth it. I'll shut down this Sunday at 0.00 GMT, so you have a little less than a week to finish off any ongoing communications. Thanks for all your support over the last few years, especially forum moderators. It was good while it lasted.
Yours, Dinotoyforum

Oh no! But I suspect a correlation with today's date - at least I hope so! ;D

On a similar note, I will soon be relocating to a yurt in Outer Mongolia to devote myself to the study and reconstruction of a life-size animatronic model of Elasmotherium. Look for a feature article in an upcoming issue of Rhino Fancy magazine.

I will be opening The Chinasaur Toy Forum where all things Chinasaur can be discussed all the time, 24 hours a day. I think it's high time, because truly - there is not better sculpt than a hollow plastic animal with it's mouth open wider than the Grand Canyon.
If anyone tries to discuss Battat. WS, Carnegie, Schleich, and especially Papo on my forum, I will immediately dipatch T-1000s (shaped like Robo-raptors) to your location to eat you (because that's how I roll) and you will also be banned (on the off chance you survive munchie-munchie)!
Good one, DTF :-) You had me for .0321 seconds :-D
** if on the off chance this was not a joke and coincidentally happened April Fools Day, then my ID was hijacked by Terror Birds while I was home sleeping and I accept no responsibility for the content of this post and should not be banned or flamed... zzzz **

You know the one where it was found it battle with a dragon, T-Rex, and Robot? That one was found there!

I found a miracle vaccine and survived! Did anyone notice Papo's new tagline? "Accuracy is everything." They have some really realistic dinosaurs, they just aren't that detailed...

I certainly buy the part about it being stressful and emotionally draining for you! For my part, I know what an enormous labor it must be to run this forum and I, for one, am very grateful to you and the moderators who assist you, and that's no April fools gag! Thank you all.

I just had my feet surgically pronated. I had mine depronated! ;D And on that note, WWD may have been ahead of it's time with the Toyway Iguanodon. I know, off topic, but the front feet are not pronated. Only just realised that when I was taking photos for the blog a couple of days ago.

Yeah too bad the back feet aren't accurate too which should have been easy.
