Quote from: Cpt Red 3eard on June 28, 2024, 04:03:09 AMHmmm. The paint seems like a significant downgrade from the prototype/initial reveal.

I hope this isn't a trend with DD, great sculpts terrible paint. The Bull Rex was also pretty..bold to put it mildly.

The Nanmu has softer detail but nicer paint the DD is more accurate to the renders but the paint took a major step down from prototype to production as evidenced by that last box shot.

I'm waiting for a video review to decide if i'll sell mine from nanmu and take this one, but I 100% agree with you

It makes it pretty difficult to decide what to keep and what to sell for sure. I might get it totally repainted..idk.

Was there any updates on these?

Not yet. The baby Stegosaurus was due out in May and I haven't heard if it's shipping yet either. They also showed pics of the baby Rex in a cage and that one hasn't even went up for preorder yet.  Seems they pushed the Giga out quicker?  The Theri is probably the next product they are going to get out quickly to beat others.

Thank you avatar_Blade-of-the-Moon @Blade-of-the-Moon, I wish they would push these out.

I've been hesitant to just pickup Nanmu's Velociraptors 1/35 JW squad and get them repainted because DinoDream's teaser.

Now, I'm rethinking my decision... I'm impatient.

I understand, there are some things I really want NOW. lol   1 could have helped you last year, I had all four sets for sale.

DD just announced today a Juv. Rex diorama piece. I'm wondering if  they are behaving like Nanmu and some other companies. Testing the waters for interest before producing something?

Yes!

I need to watch it again then as I don't recall that exact shot. They did really well on the look and detail. Just wish the paint was better.  The area around the eye could be improved too..slightly.

Agree with you
Look is perfect to JWD Giga, unlike Nanmu and Prime 1
About the paint, looks good in some photos and worse in another. Maybe we can be sure anout it only with a video review

Still waiting on Lana to ship my Giga, it says In Stock so hopefully soon. 

The Theri/Rex set is all new sculpts?  Feels a bit like the Prime 1 set.

Rexy is a new sculpt, Theri is the same they showed before
There will be no other versions of Theri and Giga

They must think Rexy will sell well enough for two versions. At least we are getting a Theri which is great. The current Giga will probably scale with them.

I just noticed how grey the Giga's teeth are, seems to be covered with overspray from the body and left that way? Very poor quality there in regards to paint.

I don't know.. in some photos the teeth looks perfect yellowish like the movie, but in these new photos, it's really almost a grey

I want to see a video review to decide to buy this guy and sell the Nanmu one

It's pretty confusing.  Mine just shipped from Lana so I'll see first hand what it's like and post here when it arrives.
