Review and photographs by ‘Prehistory Resurrection,’ edited by Suspsy
Hello, this is ‘Prehistory Resurrection’, formerly known as ‘Resurrection of the dinosaurs.’ The figure that I will review today is CollectA’s 2009 brown Tyrannosaurus rex figure from its old Procon line. At first, I thought that it was just a repainted version of the original 2006 version, but when I compared it with the images, I saw some differences in their sculpts which I will describe in full.
CollectA’s first 2024 reveal is their 1:3 scale take on Dearc (pronounced “jark”), a Middle Jurassic rhamphorhynchine discovered in Scotland. Named and described in 2022, it had an estimated wingspan of up to three metres and was the largest flying creature of its time.
Finally! A new Gallimimus toy for next year!
This 1:40 scale Deluxe toy strongly resembles a rooster, which is appropriate given that its name means “chicken mimic.”
And yes, it’s mounted on a base just like CollectA’s previous ornithomimosaur toys, but I have no issue whatsoever with that.
Here’s something that ought to make any dedicated dinosaur fan sit up and take notice: the very first toy of Ingentia prima, the “first huge one,” courtesy of CollectA!
Ingentia was a basal sauropodomorph that lived in South America during the Late Triassic period.
