I wish @Faelrin!

Unfortunately no, I think that was Steve, @UK .....

@Crackington Thanks so much for the correction. Been a while since I last saw that post and my memory is terrible when it comes to this kind of stuff.

I've just finished an Allosaurus repaint on the original Toyway figure cause I always thought Toyway did a pretty shoddy job on the paint with it.

Hey guys ive been a wwd fan since i was young and was recently reminising about this trex puppet i had as a kid and decided to find another of nostalgias sake. To my surprise i could only find one seller online anywhere, but on top of that couldnt find any information out there about this toy either. Anyway i pulled the trigger and im very happy i did.
Just wondering if anybody on here does have anymore information about it, are their any more models in the line for example.
Ino its not a toyway fingure so if ive posted this in the wrong place i apologise.
Thanks J.

That's a neat puppet!

I've never seen this before. Though, I realize there is the Walking With Dinosaurs live tour show. Would make sense since there's an array of products from that tour alone, and not directly from ToyWay.

J @Jblakemore I also have this puppet and it is definitely 'vintage', released when or just after the show aired. But I genuinely can't remember how I acquired it at the time, I don't remember buying it myself, so I think it must have been a birthday or Xmas present, I can't recall. Isn't that terrible, never rely on your memory!

I only have the toy, not the packaging. You can see it in the top left of the first photo of my collection thread, taken many years ago: https://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=3.0

I'm not aware of any other models in the series. It doesn't function very well as a 'puppet'. The whole thing is hollow plastic but the slit in its stomach is too narrow and the plastic is too rigid for a hand to easily fit inside.

I'd be interested to see what it says on the back of the box, does it give any company details?

@DinoToyForum yeah its deffinatly vintage i used to have one when i was younger, around the time the show was airing.

Im just really surprised vy the lack of information about it online considering how much info their is on the toyway line.

However im vety glad i picked up this boxed version seems to be quite rare as its the only one i could find online anywhere.

I will send some more pictures of the box when i get back home
