This photo was first posted to Ikimon's Twitter account back in March 2019, but recent photos shared to STS suggest that this set will finally enter production this year:


tentative IDs:
Apatosaurus
Archelon
Elasmosaurus
Triceratops
Tyrannosaurus
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Looks good! I like the dynamic poses.

Archelon is an interesting choice for a skeletal reconstruction, too.

Those bases look rather comically small. Are Ikimon bases always the same size? Because I got a Rockhopper Penguin by them and if the bases are always the same size, it would give me an idea how big the skeletons are.
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

Yes they are, and I believe I probably have that same penguin.

The bases are pretty small but they work if you're setting up a miniature museum or something and want tiny visitors to be able to walk around and under the mounts...

Taking orders now for these. Please PM if not on my mailing list.

Thanks.

And though these are really beautiful--especially the poses for the four that aren't the apato, let's hope the company goes full dino and not just skeletons next time. With these and what the company has done (and will be doing this year) with modern animals as indicators, they'd likely be stunning.  And along with Qualia if that company continues, that would be three Japanese makers producing beautiful miniature prehistoric figures.

Thank you.

Most likely. Mine looks like this one:

Will these be available on hobby sites like AmiAmi and Hobby Search at all?

avatar_Darko2300 @Darko2300 hard to say. I've rarely seen them on HobbyLink, but sometimes Hobby Search does carry Ikimon products: https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/search?typ1_c=101&cat=&state=&sold=0&sortid=6&searchkey=ikimon

I expect Brett will have little trouble procuring them, though.
