I want the new Favorite soft model Spinosaurus! And I like the unpainted figures. Patience, grasshopper I think I like the unpainted even more than the painted figures .

How can you get them? It's easy! Someone send me the Kaiyodo GUANLONG and I'll send him or her my Favorite Spino & alternate Tyranno ;D

Seriously - how can you get them? I'd love the alternate tyrannosaur and the spinosaur.

Sometimes I work at the centre of media & communication in my town as a helping hand on stage, kind of a roadie job but not on the road . I met this Japanese young lady named Sumi. You can meet quite a lot of Japanese people at the ZKM because sometimes the music that is played there is so bizarre that only the Japanese music students of our city have the nerves to listen to it ;D. So I asked Sumi if she had a friend in Japan who would do me favour - I had the Guanlong in mind. The guy doesn't know anything about Dinosaurs and couldn't help me with the GUANLONG, but alternatively was kind enough to place an order at Favorite's web-site. I sent him the money, he sent me the Dinos, that's it . I guess you have much more Japanese people in America than we do. They all should have friends & family. Ask them, they're very nice people Oh, Bayern Munich is playing the Champions League final now - nothing else is of interest for at least 2 hours ;D P.S.: I am serious - I would trade these two for the Guanlong. I just can't seem to find it .

My first intention to order the Safari Dinosaur Skulls Toob was to give it as a present to little Gina for her 8th birthday. Now that I got it , I can't give them away and keep the skulls for myself ;D Parasaurolophus Dilophosaurus Diplodocus Carnotaurus Brachiosaurus Oviraptor Tyrannosaurus Triceratops Nigersaurus Velociraptor Dracorex (unfortunately I do not own any figure of this species)

You'll have to get the CollectA Dracorex. As far as I know, it is the only one made.

Thank you, foxilized ..... and no, I don't like the CollectA Dracorex, although someone wrote a nice review a little while ago (Did I vote for the figure or did I vote for the review ;D).

That was me!!!!! Yeah its really ugly don't feel a need to get it unless you have your own reasons like i did. www.dinotoyblog.com/2010/04/03/dracorex-collecta/I really like what you did with the skulls and their dino counterparts! Do you have a battat or carnegie carnotaurus? That would probably match the skull size even better!

By the way, postsaurischian, do you have a complete dinosaur skull toob and none are missing? Mironimus-Rex told me he received toobs which had the T-rex skull twice but another one was missing, if I recall correctly it was the Dilophosaurus which you obviously have. Edit: Now that was a bit redundant, I could as well have counted the photos to see that you have 11 different skulls...

to Griffin: Unfortunately I only have 4 Battats at the moment (Gallimimus, Styracosaurus, Ouranosaurus & Pachycephalosaurus) - would like to have the Carnotaurus as well (and the Triceratops) - will probably never be able to get their Diplodocus - hurts everytime I see it go away on eBay . BTW: Has the Tsintao already arrived? Yes - all skulls included, I bought it a few weeks ago from Dan But I miss a skull from at least one species of Thyreophora - so the toob is not really a perfect educational toy.

There is at least one ankylosaur in the Dinotales series (Tarchia) and the two lines complement each other very well. I have mine displayed together, and I hate to say it, but the Safari ones are a little better, when comparison is possible (T.rex and Triceratops come immediately to mind).

Sure This one is just for fun I think Krentz had studied the skull very well. I didn't really want to criticize Safari, they're great, I'm happy they're giving us so many beautiful figures every year!!!

The T-Rex model..... WOW....
It feels SO alive! And that mouth, gosh I can even smell the really unhealthy gums that beast must have.

I just got the Papo "Plesiosaurus" and the Wild Safari Allosaurus today in the mail. I've never been taking too much notice of the Allo, but now that I see it right before me, I must say it's a great figure - very well done & standing perfectly on its 2 feet (some people need more time to find things out). I'm especially thrilled about how well these 2 Jurassic creatures go together Somehow I like the pseudo Plesio. It found a place in the Bathroom, at the duck's side .....
