Schleich - New for 2023

[suspsy]

Yeah, I ain't shelling out $70 for that. I'll keep holding out for CollectA or Safari to make one instead.

Coming in July: Dakotaraptor

Easily their best Raptor yet...which isn't saying much. And of course it is packed with stupid vehicle and even worse Colby.

Oh man, this looks great! I don't have an interest in the vehicle and the human, but I'm sure I can find the Dakotaraptor alone on eBay eventually!

[DinoFan2010]

Yeah, I don't need this. May as well spend 40 bucks on the two safari Utahraptors and repaint the other with a vulture color scheme and pretend it's a Dakotaraptor.
Also, that thing looks tiny.

@Flaffy or @suspsy could one of you update the first or second post of this thread with the Dakotaraptor, please?  It's weird that the new product images are in the second post rather than the first, but do whatever seems best.

This really is a DTF member moment

Fixed the first post.

Thanks @Flaffy!   That Dakotaraptor looks so poor.

I love Schleich but... eh. It's not abysmal but the wings ruin it

[Nyrorosaurus]

Oh, interesting. Wings appear to be articulated at the base of the pinky and at the shoulder. Don't think I've seen toy pterosaur wings articulated like this apart from the old Kenner toys. And even those had the extra rod supporting the membrane

[Nanuqsaurus]

And in true Schleich fashion, they stole the colours!

Your link seems to be broken but I assume it showed this life-sized model?
Looks a bit more like a cheaper toy than your usual Schleich stuff (and I think proportions are off) which is a same cause the articulation could be interesting, looks a bit like it could go for a quadrupedal pose and a flying one? If yes that is something I've been wanting from Mattel for some time but I think I'd have preferred if Schleich just stuck with jaw articulation here.

Oh I'm not sure why the link won't work, but yes that's the one I meant.

New Issue of the Schleich Magazine releasing, and the toy is of a Baryonyx.

And yes a pic of the Papo Baryonyx is used on one page.

A valiant effort, but...nah.

Well, that's something different. I like it a lot, as an art/statement piece. Shame same can't be said about the figure it's on.
