Quote from: Faelrin on May 25, 2023, 10:58:28 PMIs there anyone outside the US having better luck with finding one? Alternatively does anyone here have access to Fred Meyers? Not fully sure if they have it in stock online there, but they won't ship to me anyways, as I'm in PA.


Took me quite a while to find the Nothosaurus as well. They were in stock briefly at local Smyths and Entertainer toy stores, but quickly went out of stock as demand was so high. Plenty of shelf warming Xuanhanosaurus and Piatnitzkysaurus though O:-) .

The series that contains it has been in Canada where I live for about a month --but as many people noted, the Nothosaurus is the first to run out. That said I did see some recently

I have a few spare Dominion and 30th Anniversary Captivz figures. No Lystrosaurus unfortunately but if there were any others you had a hankering for you can let me know and I'll see what I have.

Thanks for the offer. I'm good though. There's nothing else I'm really pursuing hard. Mostly just wishing I could find them myself and buy one once in awhile.  :P

I live in Canada too, so far I've seen the Nothosaurus and baby Brachiosaurus appear as loners among multiples of Austroraptors and Elaphrosaurus in two different Walmarts. I've only ever seen the Tupandactylus and Xuanhanosaurus once and snagged them.

For Captivz, I've only ever seen the Fallen Kingdom wave, and Dominion Waves 1 and 3. Oh, and the big ones few of us care about.
On and off dinosaur collecting phases over the span of millions of years has led me to this very forum.


Blade-of-the-Moon

Fierce changers are such a waste of plastic. I might have been able to sell them in my shop for 4-5.00 as a novelty.

I know kids like action features though..they seem to get bored very quickly otherwise.

Makes me wish this was the Siamosaurus sculpt instead, am a fan of the tail paddle... Though I mean, I can always pretend that it's a Siamosaurus...

Legit my most anticipated release from Mattel this year.

Can't wait


Prehistory Resurrection


First official image of the Legacy Collection Mamenchisaurus.

A new release for the Epic Attack Line, the Walmart-exclusive "Final Clash Pack", likely inspired by the Jurassic Park Visitor Centre showdown. Yet another T-Rex and raptor. I feel this was a wasted opportunity from Mattel to create a Legacy Collection Visitor Centre Showdown playset. We already have a LC playset with 2 raptors, the iconic banner, Hammond and Sattler, but this time it would be an opportunity to create a playset with the proper characters in the scene and the complimentary diorama. Oh well....

Mamench looking better than I was expecting.  Looking forward to seeing more pics......and most likely getting it.  :)

I skipped the Dreadnoughtus, because space reasons.

But Mamenchisaurus, despite having less screen time than Dread, is a much more iconic species...

My parents will kill me...

A Visitor Center would be a way different price class...and not something you would have someone fickle like Walmart handle.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no
