Allosaurus Skeleton Model (Dinostoreus)
…a good thing, though. In addition to supporting such a great publication, Dinostoreus really embodies the mature aesthetic and academic priority of the seasoned dinosaur enthusiast. Sure, the fleshed-on models are bound to look a little dated as time plods along, but most of their replicas are based on good ol’ fashioned fossils. Skulls aren’t likely to change much as new information comes to light – at least not as much as a fully fleshed recons…
Spinosaurus Hunting (Desktop Model by Dinostoreus)
…ble. However, I would rate this model among the best painted in the entire Dinostoreus line. Nary a stray splotch nor crude stroke of color can be found on the model, and I’ve inspected several of them. Application appears quite neat, easily on par with the finest of Papo and Safari. Even the little black eyes have a lifelike shine. I particularly like the cranial crest design, like a “Hi, my name is…” tag to help distinguish him among his sail-ba…
Allosaurus (Desktop model by Dinostoreus)
4.6 (12 votes) Review and photos by Dan Liebman of Dan’s Dinosaurs The Dinostoreus “Desktop” Allosaurus model has a generous heft to it, both in physical weight and price – as of the time this review was written, she typically sells for at least $70 before shipping. Given the price tag, it would only be fair to ask: is it worth it? As far as polyresin prehistoric predators go, the Dinostoreus Allosaurus is pretty impressive. The earthy base keeps…
T.rex Fight Over Carcass Diorama (Dinostoreus)
5 (8 votes) Despite a superficially similar product line, Dinostoreus of the United States manages to distinguish itself from its former sister company, Favorite of Japan, with a few exclusive pieces. This diorama is one such piece. Constructed in fragile polyresin and just shy of five inches at its highest peak, this scene offers a glimpse of every dino-nut’s fantasy. A pair of fully grown tyrannosaurs clash for the claim to a fresh Triceratops…
Allosaurus (Kinto Favorite Desktop Model)
4.7 (7 votes) Following the split with Dinostoreus in the United States, the Japanese manufacturer Favorite (formerly known as Kinto) has developed several unique dinosaur collectibles. The most interesting of these can arguably be found in their desktop model line, which features detailed polyresin statues of popular species. Their first release for 2010 is a 1:40 scale Allosaurus, a well-known creature that stands apart from its desktop peers w…
Allosaurus (Resin Model by Shane Foulkes)
…is a far cry from the recently retired Allosaurus that Shane sculpted for Dinostoreus years ago. The sight of a massive carnivore, charging forward with jaws of deadly teeth exposed, speaks to our most primal instinct. Millions of years ago, this very sight would set our ancestors’ hair on end, and there can be little doubt of the exhilaration drawn from even this frozen simulation of such a scene. Shane was kind enough to make some additional en…
Plesiosaurus skull (Favorite Co. Ltd)
4.8 (4 votes) Here’s a bit of an experiment – our first ever video review. So, I’ll stand back and let the youtube video do the talking (video also embedded below). I will note, however, that I’m a complete novice when it comes to recording and editing, so there’s a lot of room for improvement! Nevertheless, I’ll be interested to see how this goes down, and to learn whether readers are also interested in becoming viewers!? https://www.youtube.com…
