Now, this is a way better argument than what I came up with.
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

I'll be honest I agree there. Even the smallest Schleich product costs an obnoxious amount of money compared to other brands, it's a difficult company to collect figures from. Even as gifts my mom tends to skip out on Schleich because of this.

Anyways,in typical Schleich fashion, one of their more decent figures ( bei Schleich standards, who have a long history of pretty terrible Raptors, so it is not saying much ) is of course bundled with a stupid vehicle and a Colby brother. 

Oh, you did, several months ago. I either didn't notice at the time or had forgotten, sorry. I actually tried to search the thread for "Dakotaraptor" before posting, forgetting that within-thread search is still broken.

A quite cool offering from Schleich. It reminds me of one of those bosses from Jurassic World: The Game such as Omega 09.

schleich never fails to make me want to question my sanity (FYI, 2024 Moros. The "leaked list" was a fake.)
Most (if not all) Rebor figures are mid

CityRaptor

A harbinger of doom....eh, the 2024 line up, which is not much different than doom actually.

Of course with Moros, there is some room to spectaculate, yet this one feels wrong. Seems to take some clues from the JWD version, but really makes me think of some sort of Gremlin. And the right leg looks rather funky.

Where did you find this? It looks revolting but at the same time, I'm intrigued

I hadn't noticed you edited the link in and thought you were sarcastically just saying "from somewhere" lol

If there won't be a Sinosauropteryx after all, I'm sad about it.  It's such a well-preserved animal that I couldn't imagine Schleich messing it up.


CityRaptor

Useless without an account. Although judging by what I can see, there is gonna be a Brachiosaurus repaint. Also Concavenator, Stegosaurus and some Sauropod as well as a Theropod. Allosaurus maybe?

The Brachiosaurus looks all edgy in dark and red, so presumbly it is Mr. Brachio's goth phase.

i hate it.
Usually I try to respect the sculptor. He was not qualified.
A dinosaur figure should not be in the uncanny valley

Okay Stegosaurus, Concavenator, allosaurus  and Bajadasaurus are kind of good actually. If this is what i can see coming to Barnes and Noble, which sells Schliwch.
Decently pleased  :)

Same, I'm equally disappointed in the lack of a Shonisaurus. Their replicasaurus model is a lot of fun but it desperately needs updated.

I think the Bajadasaurus is probably the most appealing of this batch. Stegosaurus surprisingly has the right digit anatomy, and Concavenator isn't too bad either (legs are a bit too skinny though). 

I started a new for 2024 thread in case anyone is interested.

Hey wait a minute...That looks suspiciously similar to Mario Lanzas' 2019 Concavenator. Wouldn't be the first time Schleich did this I guess.

crazy8wizard

Come to think of it, the Moros also seems to be aping off of another paleoart depiction. It kinda looks like Jorge Gonzalez's depiction.
