I hope the Ancestors line is added, even if not all of their figures so far, at least the Edmontosaurus. Some people here already have it and it's been very well received on the forum. For what it's worth, I would add it to my wishlist (and I'm sure more people would as well).

There's also the upcoming DinoZoo Orkoraptor and Chilesaurus. The former is more advanced, it's expected to be shown fully finished very soon.

It would also be neat to get avatar_SpinoDude @SpinoDude 's upcoming Tupandactylus (BlueSpine Studios) added.

On another note, since the Mesozoic Life Kickstarter campaign is (over)funded maybe it's time to add an image to the Spinosaurus and change the release date (as of right now they say they're expecting to deliver it this december).

EDIT: Maybe Wonder Artistic Models could be added as well? They only produce skeleton puzzles, but the site covers skeleton models as well.

Also, is it worth updating the AAoD Australovenator entry with this 2022 re- release? avatar_Fembrogon @Fembrogon showed it's now sold with an updated copyright, not to mention the difference in packaging / extras.

Sorry for once again being behind on the updates. Having to move this month will certainly delay things even more. But I'll add and update what I can here and there.

Anyways I got a bunch of the new Mattel stuff added (all of the Wave 1?), and I'm gradually getting images added. No worries about needing to do this now avatar_Halichoeres @Halichoeres (I guess I got a little impatient since I got some new stuff I wanted to add to my collection there). Took about a few times until I got the hang of it, but I think when I get to adding the next wave of Mattel stuff I'll throw in what else needs added that I can think of (such as the Ancestors models, and whatever else I'm behind on adding atm).

That's okay. I'm sure you've been busy with a lot of things atm. And again I was just impatient (I got a haul of stuff recently, which I'm still behind on posting about, because I still need to get around to taking pics of), lol. At least I figured out how to go about doing it myself which will make things easier in the future.

I'm personally a little reluctant to add every crowdfunded product and small-time hand-cast figure sold over Facebook. Sometimes they are never actually made (e.g. Edel) or are abruptly discontinued (Paleo-Creatures) with only double-digit numbers of copies in existence. I don't know what the criterion should be but we do not have any real shot at cataloguing all of the small-batch resin figures that exist.

(Un?)related, but I wonder if there any "fan" sites that still compile info on garage kits. Sites like that used to be uncommon but around, now all of the ones I know of are either very out of date or extremely narrow in focus (IE miniatures, not larger kits).

It would be cool to have a modern site to reference stuff like that.

Good question. You probably already know that some kits are on the DTC site (https://dinotoycollector.com/Browse/Browse.php?Company=Model%20Kits) but they're mostly the mass-produced plastic ones. Garage kits are a lot harder to keep track of. Individual builders sometimes have a lot of information (https://bucketfoot-al.tripod.com/DinoModels/index.album/my-garage-kit-gallery?i=0) but it's generally just about the kits they themselves have built.

An update that includes the PNSO Lingwulong, Safari Stygimoloch and Cryolophosaurus (when it gets revealed tomorrow) might be welcome.  :)

Faelrin

Yep it's on my to do list as well as the Wave 2 Mattel JW stuff and anything else I'm behind on (such as uploading my images for the many Mattel figures). I may try to get to it tomorrow night after the Cryolophosaurus is revealed in full.

Definitely going to get to work on this soon here and then back to packing.

Edit: Working on the backlog of Takara Tomy stuff first, then the PNSO and Safari Ltd figures.

Edit 2: Added the Safari Ltd stuff, and PNSO Lingwulong. Going to add images to the BotM Pachyrhinosaurus and Torosaurus, and add the Rebor Triceratops, etc.

Edit 3: Added the two Rebor Triceratops versions, those raptor statues, and the bases. Also added the Mattel SDCC exclusive. I'll probably try to add in the Wave 2 Mattel stuff later on, and whatever else I'm still behind on adding. But for the folks that want any of these, enjoy adding them to your wishlists for now.

I finally got around to adding the new PNSO spinosaurid. I tagged it with both "Sinopliosaurus" and Siamosaurus (which will also have the odd Mattel figure once I get around to adding more of the Mattel stuff, maybe today), and I also made a note explaining that teeth where originally attributed to Sinopliosaurus but have since been considered to belong to a spinosaurid, possibly Siamosaurus or a relative.

Edit: Added and updated a few of the Mattel Jurassic World things (including pics). Might do some more later tonight. Still a large backlog to get dealt with.

Edit 2: Added the remaining 2022 Mattel Extreme Damage, Hammond Collection, Legacy Collection, Micro Collection, and released Uncaged figures, and many images (of my own taking, or with retailer product pics if available). Probably going to start adding the remaining mainline Dominion figures next, and then I guess I'll be done for the night.

I think tomorrow I'll add the GR Toys Therizinosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus, etc, and maybe the remaining 2022 Jurassic World minis.

If there's anything else I'm behind on adding that someone wants, please let me know.

avatar_Thialfi @Thialfi Oh can't believe I forgot to add that for this long. Thanks for reminding me about it.

Edit: Also thanks for the appreciation avatar_Halichoeres @Halichoeres and everyone else. Glad to continue to be of help with doing this (well when I get in the mood for it at least, here and there).

Edit 2: Going through some of the older Mojo figures and adding images, and/or fixing info.

Thank you so much avatar_Faelrin @Faelrin! Amazing work! And never a hurry of course.

avatar_DinoToyCollector @DinoToyCollector, I was wondering why on the dinotoycollector.com website it says, "Disabled Login"?


I have a few suggestions:

1. Since on the website Brontosaurus is considered a valid genus (e.g. CollectA Brontosaurus), the two Invicta Brontosaurus should be classified as that genus too instead of Apatosaurus.

2. The BotM Alectrosaurus needs a photo of it.

3. For the BotM Western Pack Buitreraptor is misspelt.

4. The small BotM 1:18 ceratopsians and dromaeosaurids are listed in the ceratopsian and raptor series respectively on the website, but on their packaging it only says "Beasts of the Mesozoic", so shouldn't they go in a general BotM series which I imagine future figures will go into as well, e.g. Stegosaurus and Allosaurus.

5. The BotM green Triceratops is a Cyberzoic figure, not a ceratopsian series figure.

but would it be possible to add the dinostar tapejara
 
thank you for all of your work

I've sent avatar_DinoToyCollector @DinoToyCollector a list of Mojo figures that need their images corrected (using newer repaints versions versus the originals, and I can understand why since they use the same product codes, but thankfully DeJankins website and Toyanimalwiki had info here to get them the correct images). A few others need images or other repaints that need added which I'll take of myself.

Here is the list for anyone curious.

Thanks for the input on all of those avatar_Sim @Sim I'll try to correct and/or fix that stuff after I get the Mojo stuff taken care of. I unfortunately cannot replace the image for the Alectrosaurus, so that's up to avatar_DinoToyCollector @DinoToyCollector to correct. I believe I asked about it a while ago, but understanding what he had been going through at the time, I can understand it was missed.

avatar_Chasmosaurus @Chasmosaurus I can try to add that after. I'll have to research it first since I'm not familiar with it.
