I don't think you need to re-post all 12 of those pictures in order to make that comment.  ;)

Overall I'm impressed by CollectA this year. Though they don't all match the stock photos they're mostly respectable models. I really like the Mosasaurus.
I know.

Same here. The only ones I don't like are the Quetzalcoatlus, Ichthyovenator, and Therizinosaurus.

Then why'd you do it, out of curiosity?  ;)

Because I was responding to the pictures not the actual post.

Then just respond to the pictures!
Reposting a whole thread of pictures takes up space and can be annoying. Just a tip.  ;)

Alright guys, no need to argue over it.  Just a minor thing, easily edited if you forget even. :)

the Mosasaurus is the best of the lot. i dont like the T. trex chick for being so colorful (light brown/cream base with dark blotches would look better imo).

By now my favourite is Mosasaurus! One question: The sauropod baby is removable?

No offense, but why do people keep asking this? It was stated about two or more times already that it isn't :-X

I  asked myself just yesterday.  I thought it was said it wasn't but couldn't remember.

I think it has to do with those that want to remove it for display ( or play )...I'll do some quick work and make mine removable so I have the option....people love options.  lol

Be advised: if you intend to remove the baby Sauropod, be very cautious you don't take half the Quetz's beak with it. It's stuck pretty good.

Ah okay, I was going to check if it was glued and if so use a solvent. Otherwise a very sharp Xacto knife I think could do it.

So is the baby sauropod removable? ..........................(runs)

lol I guess the real answer is " it depends " . Not meant to be removed..but it sure could be done.. ;)

Duno. Be careful, Blade, the beak looks fairly thin and pliable.....

Roselaar

You could also ask whether the Quetz itself is removable from the Sauropod, for diversity's sake. :)

I've had experience..lol As long as my eyes hold out..that's why I stopped building tiny scale models.

Sorry I didnt want to disturb but I have a little time to check the forum due my private life and I only asked about the removable baby sauropod.
I thought it was removable like the t-rex with struthiomimus.
