Well you guys probably already have all the different models that they have there. Unfortunately there's only few different kinds of dinosaurs. About 50% of them are the Acrocanthosaurus replicas there are also quite a few Dilongs and Sinraptor so there is not that much collecting of different species to be done.

Dinosaurs, huh. I made a deposit yesterday and all they had were lollipops and delightfully perky tellers ;D
But I digress. Yay! I just received Angie's Parasaurolophus and Brachylophosaurus. They are sweet!! Real nice detail, even the tongues in the small mouths are reproduced finely. This process has a lot of promise and I figure the price will go down later. And last week I got the Safari Prehistoric Sealife and Dino Skulls Toobs,the Safari Mosasaurus, Rhamphorhynchus, and Liopleurodon. Also the 5 Bandai Dinosaur Predation Collection sets and Bullyland Iguanodon. Plus a pair of Carnegie Albertosaurus to mangle up for a diorama. ;D

I may be not the target group and feel a little embarassed about having done it... because... I... just...  No absolutely not, I really enjoyed having bought the new Hasbro/Kenner JP Tyrannosaurus. And it's so good having kids as an excuse... ;D It's this one I bought today: www.dinotoyblog.com/2010/04/12/tyrannosaurus-rex-jurassic-park-2009-toyline/€29.95, not that bad I'd say... |

Well, that was unexpected... who did I come across in a box of Batman models? The Bullyland Fluffyraptor, that's who! Much bigger than I expected, and not at all well painted, but still a really cool model.

€29.95, not that bad I'd say... Not bad at all, I bought mine for considerably more! Actually I did, too - looking on the bill again I see it was €29.98...  Normally, it would have been €49.98 or something, still not too much. Unfortunately I can't figure out why the stomping sound won't work.  |

If it's too good to be true, it probably is!

So you just mean 'the Velociraptor'. I mean, that's how it should be. It's weird when they're bald. ;D |

Sure, but I've decided that as far as baldness goes, I'm going to be tolerance incarnate. I mean, otherwise you will miss out on some pretty great models...
Still, it's nice to finally have a big (currently, more or less *rolls eyes*) accurate model.

Heck those are all collector dinosaurs. Scoop them up it's money in the bank! Or is it Dinosaurs in the bank? |

Unfortunately I can't figure out why the stomping sound won't work. You need to switch the "on button" to "full play" mode... That's how it will work! |

Yeah, there's a switch on the bottom that goes from 'On' to 'Try Me' to 'Off' and is on 'Try Me' by default.
By the way I was enough of a sucker to buy mine for £50. That's 50 GBP. Outrageous, but I just couldn't live without one anymore...
Yes, the shame I feel is frequent.

2010 Safari mosasaur and kentro ;D Ok, the mosasaur is not what I expected at all, IMHO, it is the weakest of the group so far. Perhaps it's the color? It just looks "off" to me. The kentro is super cool! ;D Still waiting on the mini marine reptiles and Papo plesio  |

I think it may be the color! If it were done in a brown or green I think I would like it more, or even a grey instead of that intense sky blue. |
