Looking for Kaiyodo DINOLANDs

[BrontoScorpio]

I'm looking for some Kaiyodod DINOLANDs.
I prefer the medium or small ones, not the really really large models,
Also am more interested with the painted, and even better "pre-made" ones - Kits are not for me.
If anyone want to sell, please let me know.
Thank you

I responded to your related post in the other thread.

You might want to get on my mailing list.

Posted this to my buyers today.  Here as well in the YAJ of interest thread, but not always:



rare, pricey, Kaiyodo prototype spinosaurus

Thank you, I will get on your mailing list.

Just a note :
The item you just displayed from YAJ is NOT what I'm looking for.
I search for Kaiyodo DINOLAND only : some nice, real life looking 1/20 , 1/35 , 1/100 Ceratops, stegosaurs etc.

Thanks.

I know.

Was just showing you what appears on YAJ.  Plenty of Dinolands but all models, but maybe that's a product of the search my source is using.  I'll ask her to check.

I got my Dinolands from YAJ. I recommend a proxy service to buy them. JAUCE or Buyee are good ones. They add a fee onto your purchase but if you don't live in Japan, it's the only way of buying from them. I actually got a good deal for them anyway. I bought a Dinoland Saltasaurus for about $40 including fees and shipping, one of the best deals I've had.

And of course there's always eBay, but prices tend to be inflated. Shame you didn't join earlier, I had a ton of Dinolands I was selling off

Really
What have I missed - What did you sell ?

Thanks for the advise - I should have found YAJ ( & BUYEE ) earlier ( before spending over 1000$ on e-bay's dinotales ... ).

Currently I can't find there any DINOLAND of my liking -
So I thought might worth asking if one of you guys may be bored of his ...

I had lots of kits and some of the premades. I also had some SEGAs which are very similar in style to the Kaiyodos.

















Were those the kinds that you were interested in? Nearly all of them have gone to new homes, or are part of my personal collection which I wouldn't sell.

Anyway, good luck in your search. Persistence does pay off, and you will find what you are searching for eventually. I did.

Thanks for the Pics and for the effort.

Nice Ceratopsians collection: I see you got Anchiceratops, Styracosaurus and a Triceratops ( I think this one comes from a Kit ).
The Maiasaura is lovely, and the big Rex and Allo. can still be bought commercially.

You are right - In time I learn that good offers tend to come up eventually -
( and patience is rewarded - so not to grab any thing for any price )

The color scheme on this SEGA-triceratops is interesting :
I can find many 'Blue' ones on sale - but, Never this 'Yellow/Red' color.
How Big is it anyway ? Is it hard or soft to the touch ?
And it's 'brother' item - the red T-rex - is it hard plastic - or soft rubber ?

A few quick answers.

All of the bigger dinos came as kits and built/prepainted pieces.

The Rex and Allo can be bought but they are revised versions , the Rex especially has a different looking head. They are also going up in price, when released they were 50.00 or less in some places.

SEGA reproduced this Trike at least three times I think. I have an orange one with green on the frill based on the Dinosaur King version. It's close to 1:15 scale ..maybe it's 1:20 ? I've never really looked at the scale much til now.

It and the Rex are vinyl, softer if warm, but generally harder plastic.

The Trike is big- around 40cm or so.

It's kinda hard to explain. They're a bit softer than a Safari or Papo figure, and if you applied enough pressure you can bend it with your hands. But they are sturdy and have a hard feel. If you own any of the old Dinoland vinyls, it's pratically the same material.
