Hello.
While looking for placerias artwork I found a picture of a Placerias toy that I didn't know of. Of course, we all know and love the Nayab Placerias, which is the must have. But even if this one looks childish, I think its wort to mention its existence. And if someone knows where to get one, please tell me.




There are other dinosaur & monsters, for example:


A lot more pictures here:

And it comes in several colors:


Party!! (Beware of cavewoman Nudity!)

Yes, this Japanese line is known as Sangattsu or Sunguts. They make a surprisingly diverse and obscure line of prehistoric critters with goofy bipedal sculpts and neon colors. They have a bunch that I've come across including Tylosaurus, Dunkleosteus and Meiolania (I love how autocorrect was able to fill those in for me. Do you think I spend too much time on this forum?). They are also outrageously expensive. I've never seen one for sale for less than $75.

i see them sometimes in FB Kaiju collector groups.

Interesting and funny little critters, never seen these before!

The Helicoprion is aaaalmost tempting. Does anyone know a full list of the critters in the line? Thankfully none has managed to be unique so far, so I haven't felt compelled to go after them.

Related: while trying to Google these, I stumbled across a bunch of apparently newly released monochrome prehistoric sea creatures:

Those are neat little things! They almost look like game pieces...must create game to use pieces...

I always like to see figures of Paleozoic creatures and those are no exception. Those look like they would be good for repainting.

Are we sure those are cheap toys? Because I know that Kaiju toys in that style can be rather expensive.

Also found more about them:

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

No, like I said, they are quite expensive. The Meiolania is my favorite. Soooo tempting, but at over $100 a piece (and with several color variations) I don't think I'll be able to delve into these until I'm independently wealthy.

Ooh, Christmas-colored prehistoric aquatics! Want. I wish I knew how to read Japanese so I could learn more about these. Bet those aren't in Dinosauriana...

After searching & browsing, it seems that the brand is: Butanohana.
Here is a gallery of several pages of its figures.

OMG Tim. I thinked I wanted the placerias, but now I'm dying to get these paleozoics. I contacted the OneUp Akibahara store to know the cost of these.

Thanks, I'll change the title. The price is inflated by the sellers, because I see them in Japan for 2700 yen.

It seems that they are struggling with english. But they say that this image was from an ended online presale, there are no stock in store yet. They didn't give me a price, but suggest me to check in the online store. I did it but can't find the product.
