i want the placerius box cut out....lol you should take the dimetro and cut its sail off Send me your mailing address and I'll send you the cut out--I won't be keeping the boxes anyway. And I have definitely thought about going back for at least one more set--and I have definitely thought about chopping that sail off. Wow, nice find Sean .............. looks as though they've been repainted and repackaged.  I was pretty surprised--I wanted some of them, but I wasn't really going to pursue them! And according to the box, they were 'Imported By' the Bargain Shop--in other words, the company actually purchased the lot of them for repackaging! Once in a while, these cheap shops pay off! |

I ordered the Krentz Antediluvia Triceratops and Styracosaurus like four months ago and finally got them the other day. He was really nice about it and sent his Achelosaurus free of charge for my patience.
So all together Krentz trike, styrac and a free achelo! Its great because I was really torn and almost got the achelo instead of the styrac anyway!

YAY! Thank you for this I am so happy you liked them! I've been out of town for awhile and just logged in to find this and was super excited ;D I'm glad SHapeways treated you well and the figures made it to your doorstep just fine. I can't wait to see you paint them!!! They are going to look AWESOME with your painting ;D I'm on my way to making more of these. I hope to have the time this weekend to finish up the Camptosaurus, I also have a Maiasaura and some others. Again, so glad you liked them and please post the painted versions  Take care, Angie Wow! I just got the Shapeways Parasaurolophus and Brachylophosaurus, all the way from Holland. Created by our own Angie Rodrigues, aka 3Dcreature, these little beauties are apparently printed from a CAD program into a real 3-dimensional model. I got the 1:75 versions, which are about the size of the Kaiyodo Dinotales figures, maybe a little bigger. The material is very light plastic, with some flexibility, I didn't want to break them, but there is some give and they are not too brittle. It's not easy to tell with a snow-white figure, but it certainly looks like there is lots of detail on almost every level , skin, muscles, facial features, etc. I think when I paint it and give it a blackwash, most of these features will certainly pop out, so look for a finished version in the near future. As to the figures themselves, the brachy I don't think has ever been done in a smaller than 1:20 version; it looks quite accurate, the legs are long and thin, kind of like a horse (!). And the Para has a wonderful web extending from its crest all the way to the back of its shoulders - don't think I've seen that before. Translucent in the figure, simply stunning. A remarkable job by Angie, I encourage everyone to get these, they are quite reasonably priced, and shipping is included. You guys know I don't get too excited too often, but I really think this something great. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D    Again, the pix don't really do these justice, you really have to see them for yourself! |

Jealousy?? Of that?? It is one Battat you could not PAY me to touch. Ew. Probably couldn't afford it It is (after the Diplodocus) THE most sought-after Battat figure. Its brilliantly sculpted - although smaller than it should be - which is why I have ordered the 'Big Daddy" from Dinonikes ... |

Hm. Sought after or not, I just don't care for it. Or the rex. Or the dilopho, haha. Those three I just never liked the look of.

I don't mind the size, it should be about in-scale with my kinto T-rex, so I can display them together.... The two coolest theropods in my collection ;D
Still need that dinonikes version though! Especially considering how big it is.

As I have over two thirds of them, I could hardly be called a Battat-denier. Those three are just not my cup of tea is all, never said they were bad or anything, just not interested in em myself....geeze  |

I think you would like the first version battat rex kevin Although I do agree that the dilophosaur look a little like lumpy chowder. |

I hate you. I used to have that Allosaurus. A strange interpretation of the 'other lizard' to be sure. Basically a tyrannosaur with three working fingers... |
