DTB Review Schedule

[suspsy]

Yeah, that should be fine as long as the images can be sent that way successfully.

@suspsy, @DinoToyForum, and @DefinitelyNOTDilo you are all discussing a figure that has been reserved for review by another member. B @bmathison1972 has the Haolonggood Sinoceratops reserved and I think he should be made aware of this before you all proceed further.

Of the other figures that DefinitelyNotDilo has asked about, the PNSO Spinosaurus was reserved by @EmperorDinobot and the Era Terra Patagotitan is still available, as far as I know.

Haolonggood figures that are still in need of review and have not been claimed by other reviewers... Apatosaurus, Tyrannosaurus, Therizinosaurus, Allosaurus, Carnotaurus, Daspletosaurus, Baryonyx, Alamosaurus, and Tlatolophus.

PNSO figures that are still in need of review and have not been claimed by other reviewers... Albertosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Lythronax, Mamenchisaurus, Microraptor, Sinraptor, Yangchuanosaurus shangyouensis (Dayong), and Cameron the T. rex.

I checked through the message logs and I didn't see anyone reserving those, would you be able to point me to those messages? The only reason I ask I I already spent multiple hours writing Sino and Spino lmao.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

@Gwangi realized I should mention you just in case you miss the message lol

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Regardless, I suppose if I can't review sino and spino I'd like to do the patago, carno, and edmonto if possible as those are the only available ones I have/have coming soon.

All that information is in the reviewer's board which I don't believe you would have access to. In it there is a thread for each company with a list of figures and who's requested to review it, and it's generally first-come-first-serve. This exists entirely to prevent what is happening now, because you've spent multiple hours on these reviews that other people have also requested to review. It has happened to many of us in the past which is why we do it this way now. But you wouldn't know that of course, being new to this. In the future I suggest seeing if a figure is available before starting to review it.

Do not despair though. I'm sure @EmperorDinobot and B @bmathison1972 will hear your case and respond with sympathy. I'm not sure if they've started their reviews or not already but I thought that they should at least be made aware of what's going on. However things transpire I look forward to your reviews, of whatever they may be, it's always great to get new reviewers on the blog. 

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Thank you! If my reviews don't end up being used on the blog I can always still post them on the forums lol.

Excellent! I don't oversee all the different brand threads but I do maintain the HLG thread so I will put you down for the Carnotaurus. @suspsy takes care of the PNSO thread.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Btw @Gwangi should I send you what I wrote for sino?

No, @suspsy handles guest reviews.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Alright

[EmperorDinobot]

Let them have Aymen the Spino. I don't yet have the funds for it, and my camera has been taking horrendous pics.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Tysm!

[bmathison1972]

I don't have the Sino yet (not yet available in the US via HHT). I am going to go ahead and let @DefinitelyNOTDilo review it since their review is already written. BUT please note in the future to inquire about such things before writing reviews. I may not be so generous in the future   

Attention: @suspsy @DinoToyForum @Gwangi

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Thx again, I took dtf's earlier statements as meaning that they were available but I definitely should have been more clear about that.

[suspsy]

Ugh. Sorry, I've been pretty busy with other commitments this week and I admittedly have only been skimming recent posts till now, but I'm really not cool about Blaine being bumped off like this, especially given that he is a regular reviewer and he reserved the Sinoceratops ages ago. I'm going to put my foot down and say it's a negative, sorry. You can review something else instead. There's a heap of PNSO  that's available: Albertosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Lythronax, Mamenchisaurus, Microraptor, Sinraptor, and the latest T. rex.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

That's totally fine by me, to be honest I'm not entirely sure what's going on atm, this is very confusing lol.

[suspsy]

I'm saying the Haolonggood Sinoceratops should remain Blaine's, but those PNSO figures I listed above have not been reserved by anyone and are perfectly free for you to review if you own any of them. And the Haolonggood Carnotaurus, of course.

[DefinitelyNOTDilo]

Thanks, I don't have any of those at the moment but I do have edmonto on its way as we speak, and carno of course.

[suspsy]

Okay, that's great. There's also a number of BotM and Mattel and Schleich figures that haven't reviewed yet, although best to list what ones you own so we can crosscheck with our reserve list.
