How much is a real one compared to knock offs?

[about Lystrosaurus] Astonishingly, their vast herds make up more than half of all life on Earth. Never again will a single species do so well.

They appear to be close to the same price as the originals. In other words, there is no reason to buy them.

To kill an error is as good a service as, and sometimes even better than, the establishing of a new truth or fact.

It's not necessarily concerning dinosaur toys, but the counterfeiting industry as a whole. The fake eggs thing is just insane :-\

An interesting and informative video.

Like yourself - I am creeped out by the fake egg thing (though I suppose you could call it "molecular gastronomy" though I don't know if toxic & undigestible materials = food...).

Really interesting (and worrying!) documentary. Probably worth sharing in the general knock-offs thread too.

I always see these on YAJ. I don't think they're selling though...
