Literally the only positive I can think of is that their Kronosaurus is slightly better proportioned than the WS one.

WS doesn't make a Kronosaurus. Carnegie does.

....... and it's not too hard to make a better proportioned one ;D.

Tylosaurus has an interesting color scheme... which makes no sense for it. Would've worked great for a Globidens, thought. Elasmosaurus has a cool color scheme, but lacking a tail fluke and having a vertical neck I'd pass on it. The rest are complete flops.

stargatedalek

why would elasmosaurus have a tail fluke?

Heh, maybe Papo got it right? :P
In the end it was not guns or bombs that defeated the aliens, but that humblest of all God's creatures... the Tyrannosaurus rex.

Admittedly speculative, but given they're known to be present on at least some plesiosaurs, I'd say it makes the most sense.

stargatedalek

This is news to me!
Mosasaurs yes but plesiosaurs, now that's something I've never heard before.

I never had a list of all the Jurassic Action, but I think the Dimetrodon might be new.
You can never have too many dinosaurs

CityRaptor

Pretty sure I saw that Dimetrodon on a package before.

Well, the positive things about those reptiles is that they come with a stand and look a lot better than their Dinosaurs....the bad parts have been mentioned before.

Also looks like the gave Dr. Steve Hunters a facelift.
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

Thanks for the heads up, Takama. I hope you'll give us another one when the pre-dinos and crocs come out--those are the ones I'm really curious about.

There have been pictures of some of them at one point...they look like figures GeoWorld would make. Take that how you will.

I think that appropriately tempers my expectations.

If the marine reptiles are any indication, yeah, pretty much.

terrorchicken

went to TRU today and was looking a the Geoworld 6 packs, on the back of the boxes it showed they are replacing one of the dino packs with the marine reptiles. So they should be coming to TRU soon. I dont think Ill be picking any up, they arent very interesting...
