This came up in another thread, so I thought I'd create a new thread for it. No clue, but WHAT? You have a white Invicta Triceratops made of rubber? Pictures please, for I am an Invicta lunatic!  I've also seen a similar figure before:  |

I also saw them on German ebay last week in a lot (I forgot to bid...). I assume these white Invictas were part of a set of figures to paint - I don't know this for a fact though, I just think it's plausible.

I'd love them too. The trouble is, I will really, really want to paint them as well...

I would NEVER paint those! I love their form as it is. It´s what I always loved at monochrome dinosaurs - Marx, Linde, Invictas,...

I would love to know what others were made in white besides the ones I have. |

They make me think of the paint-your-own Kinto Favourite dinosaurs. I saw them for sale at Everything Dinosaur (BHI store) but didn't get any. Something about monochromatic dino figures is just awesome.

I like monochrome because it forces you to pay attention to the actual sculpture. A figure shouldn't need paint to look awesome.

I would love to know what others were made in white besides the ones I have. Exactly the four you have - could be a coincidence, but if it really was a paint-your-own set, perhaps it's only these four in white edition. |

*deep tear-filled sigh*
Thanks mnem.
It's taken me a year and close to $200 to gather my set. Its really hard to find ones that have not been painted. Only two in my set were spared that fate. My ptero came from someone who's friend had worked at Invicta and got the ptero from there.
