Hey all! I used to be huuuge into dinosaurs as a kid. I don't have any toys left over from then, but whenever I would go into Hobby Lobby, I would catch myself playing with the Papo Spinosaurus model, simply because it was large and detailed. I recently went back there, and in the discount section I found the Papo Spinosaurus... the leg had come unglued from where the factory glued it (not broken at all, just unglued), so it was in the discount aisle, originally $36... Marked down to $3. I immediately bought it and glued the leg back together. You can't even tell it came unglued.

Just thought I would share my story of an awesome deal I found!!

Nice find! Coincidentally I also saw a Papo Spinosaurus with a broken leg at my local Hobby Lobby recently after seeing your thread. Maybe that's where Papo sends all their broken dinosaur toys.  :P
