Marco Makes - New for 2023

I think I'd get the '93 Para if I had to, it looks great in that pose. I can't say I'm excited for the other figures in a completely neutral pose. It just feels... off.

I'm not sure the right way to describe it because the craftsmanship is there in the paint work, but a completely neutral pose is lifeless and dead to me. I mean, I guess it has use as a reference piece for an artist, but that's it.

Thanks! The Captivz Parasaurolophus sculpt is certainly not very pleasing to look at... Guess I'm getting Marco's one then ;D

Still waiting to see another round of the anniversary line. I think all I really want next is the JP Para.

I was wondering if anyone who has purchased Marco's 30th anniversary basic figures has had them shipped yet? I ordered the JP3 male and female raptors painted on April 1st but I haven't seen anyone with them in hand yet (besides Andy). I assume he needs time to paint all these since he sold a ton.

Will take quite a while to fufill all the orders I imagine, many models of the line were sold out within a couple of days (restocks are coming, eventually). Think of it as a preorder rather than purchasing an in-stock item.

That's what I figured. I hope I can have them in hand before the summer is over. I'm looking forward to taking lots of outdoor photos

I just ordered the Corythosaurus, planned to order others but they were sold out already. I'm a bit wary of etsy, I lost around 1500.00 on there not knowing their rules. It does make one a paranoid over long term deals.

my corythosaurus was 103.21 and I ordered it April 4th. I really don't think I'll order anything else.

Wow, that really is an awfully long time. I just got my BotM Suski three days ago and ordered it 10/7/21, so I think that's the longest I've ever waited for a toy.

I know he's had some personal issues recently, even so a quick message to each buyer would be nice.  Etsy won't help you with a refund after so many months either.

Jeez..that's a wait. But at least David keeps everyone posted. As far as David goes, I'm going to be more selective with his line too going forward.
