Another dinosaur line from Mattel

My adult self is meh on these, but my inner child absolutely loves them. The Dilophosaurus is particularly charming. (Is it wearing a leather jacket?!)

I like the brushable hair because I approve of anything that leads towards a pop culture acceptance of the likelihood of feathers/fur/"fur" on dinosaurs in general.

That Ceratosaurus is making use of the ongoing unicorn trend and it kinda works for me

I certainly don't expect accuracy with these, but I still am a little perplexed at the design choice of brushable hair on at least the dinosaurs and other reptiles so far.

I think it is because they are sold as dolls, or as they call it in the doll world: "hairplay toys". I guess it also helps in creating a similarity to the CC humans that have extremely long hair. It's part of the style.

I thought of this initially but then they just plopped hair on all of the animals and even the minerals (there is a pet rock in the Blind Bag lineup)

Maybe that is what they call an Unicorn. Instead of  "White horse with a horn on its head... prances around all sparkly." it's  "Blue Theropod with a horn on its nose... stomps around all sparkly."

Not gonna lie, I initially thought of Cam Cretaceous upon readin CC.

Is the rock even meant to be alive? I mean these were a thing:

Yep, leather jacket. Makes me think of Ridge from Extreme Dinosaurs, actually.
