I voted Carnegie but Safari (especially a lot of the newer pieces) is about equal in my book. Papo and Invicta would rank pretty high as well. Papo for the level of detail, Invicta for the nostalgia.

I voted Safari and other - Invicta, Aurora Prehistoric scenes and Inpro, the holy trinity from my childhood!

;D Agreed--how many times do we need one of these anyway?  |

I understand that now and in hindsight I should've looked properly. But spare a new fella the odd mistake!

As a fellow newcomer and frequenter of many forums I feel comfortable saying you can't win either way. Veteran members get annoyed when you bring up topics that have been already discussed OR when you dig up old threads. Personally I like threads like these brought up every so often so we can get insight from new members and figure if the old timers don't they can probably figure out how to scroll through the list of threads without clicking on ones that bore them. |

I agree with Gwangi on this, I mean there's hundreds of threads on the Forum now, who's got time to wade through them all? Give the guy a break (sorry, I'm a bit grumpy this morning, got a rotten cold - urrgh!)!

Hmmm ... is one of the reasons that Battat is continually omitted from these polls that it would be a runaway winner? Just saying ...

Perhaps it has more to do with including companies that are actually available, some of which existed before Battat and continue to function as existing lines. Just sayin'... Otherwise, Kaiyodo, Marx, Invicta, WwD Toyway (not BMNH Toyway) and several others would likely also be on there. |

I have yet to get my hands on a Battat so while I do like many of their figures I can't really vote for them, at least not until I see one of their figures in person rather than on the web.

They're even better in real life. Unless you get one in worse than expected condition.

I like to have a thread like this started every once in a while. I know I answered this question before but since then, my answer has changed. My favorites right now are battat, tyco dino riders, and invicta.

I like Battat as much as the next man, but I do think it's overrated here. Their models were good, but most of the recent Carnegie/Safarisaurs and even Collectasaurs are at least as impressive, and usually sport better paint jobs and more extensive line-ups.
But maybe I'm biased because I only have one Battatsaurus.
