Which ones? Titans, Growlers, or the one Basher? Growers are definitely a deal at $9. The rest... not at all.

That is because the executive meddling came in pretty late. Had they planned that from an earlier stage, it might have turned out like Disney's Dinosaur, where you know that they are talking, even with the sound off. Now it is more like one of those shows where animals are dubbed over with human voices.

They're aware that they might not have had as much brains as JP gave them, so they want to eat ours lol! XD

Eating a single organ seems a waste and is probably a mammal thing for the most part anyways. No, Hasbro's saurian horrors are after the flesh of their Kenner brethern...oh, and that of the few good Hasbrosaurs.

I heard it was to be voiceless, but the studio got scared (a movie about animals, without voices?!) and forced the voiceover work into the film mere months before it was released.

That is what I've read as well. Which is why we got Dinosaurs that look like these:

As opposed to them looking like these:

That's what I was thinking of as well. But the lack of sickle claws really turn me off, I wouldn't want to waste money on sub-par figures.

Besides overall quality that is the problem. That they are not accurate Velociraptors was to be expected, but they aren't movie accurate either.

Hello.
I had to wait several monts, but at last some JW toys are selling here in México. I bought the Velociraptor Squad 4 pack. But I noticed Echo and Blue are the same sculpt, just painted diffenrent. Is that way in your countries too?

Yes, it's the same in the UK and America.

well if you look close echos arms are longer and its head larger.

I picked up the Mosasaurus vs. Sub pack and never took it out of the package.  It didn't really appeal to me and I never warmed up to it, I think it's all in the eyes. Not sure if I should return it.  I got it at full retail.

[CityRaptor]

If online prices for that set are anything to go by, you should keep it and put it on eBay.

Thanks CityRaptor, I didn't even think about checking. I also checked on the Showdown figures and wow, they really go for a lot on the secondary market.  I bought a bunch of those when they were on clearance to repaint, but wow, not anymore. LOL.

[Victoria's Cantina]

If possible I would say try for the Mosasaurus 2.0 as it has a nicer paint application. I wouldn't say it's completely necessary if you already have the first version, but it's definitely a bit of an upgrade.

A pity the showdown figures were US only. They show what Hasbro can do if they want.
