Dinoland Brachiosaurus

Looking at your pictures the Sideshow Apatosaurus seems kind of small compared to the Brachiosaurus, but aren't they both 1/20 scale?

I think the Apatosaurus was more of a 1/25 than 1/20. Or it was a juvenile animal (even though SS officially described it as old). I don't see why there couldn't have been variation between animals. Maybe it was a very large Brachio and a small sized Apato.

That would be possible. Size variation in animals is not unknown, afterall.  And ofcourse Seismosaurus turned out to be a large Diplodocus.

To my eyes if it were re-released it would need some serous reworking almost bordering on a complete resculpt due to its inaccuracies. It is an awesome retro piece but has not held up that well to more recent thinking

I'm fine with that. These old Kaiyodo models are to me what Invicta are to some people

I admit to collecting some dinosaur models despite how retro they are, and being quite fond of them. I still enjoy my old Marx playset as well as its newer counterpart made by MPC, as well. Most of those older figures are far outdated and highly inaccurate but still quite well loved . One of my favorite old model dinosaurs is the protoceratops Martin redid for me that was issued about forty five years ago. I can quite understand that aspect of collecting for certain.
