I wonder how big the Dienonychus Models will be compared to this.

Hi all, I collect Papo dinosaurs because accuracies aside, they offer the best level of detail at the most affordable prices. However, I'm tired of waiting for them to release a compy and I'm thinking of branching out into Rebor. Can anyone offer me a size comparison for their compies against the Papo models? They don't have  to be too accurate, just smaller than Papo's smallest. Thanks.

It's slightly taller and longer than the Papo Archaeopteryx, about the same space taken up (but less bulky) as the Parasaurolophus.

Okay thanks, that's useful. As much as I love the models, I think they'll be a little too big. Ideally I want them smaller than the Oviraptors.

Reptilia

I have always been a bit hesitant to buy the Rebor Compsognathus. It's a very nice sculpt and perfectly fitting for a Jurassic Park collection, but at the same time it gives me the impression of an unstable and fragile figure.

Halichoeres

Mine actually stands very well with its tail off the ground, which surprised me given how much trouble they had with their Ceratosaurus and Utahraptor had.

@OP, it scales well with their Archaeopteryx, but it isn't very much smaller than their Oviraptor in terms of overall length, but much lighter.

I sincerely recommend the compsognathus. Mine (since I have five) are perfectly standing.  :)

The dinosaurs that I might not recommend from my own experience are the Cerberus clan, that is to say, the deinonychus since they suffer from stability problems and what is worse, their arms frequently fall. They are very small figures and very far from the velociraptor scale.
