what type of material are the the rebor models made from? alot of times it doesn't list what materials they are made of and it seems to be a mix of some type of rubber and then polyresin...
The titanoboa seems to be made entirely of poly-resin of some type?

The Titanoboa is certainly not polyresin, it's very rubbery flexible material.  There are elements of that in the other models, not sure if it's the exact same material though.  There are harder elements of the figures so maybe a mix for sure.

Don't forget, there are two Titanoboas from REBOR, one silicone rubber or some variation thereof, and the resin maquette consuming the crocodilian.

I'm not sure, there might be a couple more pieces back in the Oddities line. Didn't they do a Mosasaur/Tylosaur 'skeleton in matrix' plaque that was resin? I might be thinking of another company...

EDIT: It was REBOR.

That was the one Rebor piece I really wanted, but I never saw them for sale anywhere.

I got that image from an eBay BIN listing for $95.67USD + $29.99 SpeedPak from China. The listing indicates they have one left.

Thanks, but that is far out of my price range. I wonder how much Rebor used to sell them for?
