[CityRaptor]

If I remember correctly, they are also used as ostrich and croc eggs.

Whoa, hey, is this playset new??? Why don't I see it in any of the "Schleich New for 201X" threads? I know their playsets can be a little hokey at times, but I'd totally buy this thing for the metriorynchid skeleton alone!

Thanks! I might have to get it, especially if it goes on sale into the holidays...

I wonder if this art was an inspiration for Schleich Dracorex

Whoa, which was first, the chicken or the egg?  The feet are just like those ... and almost same chosen colors -

Presumbly the picture came first. Checked the name on it. It's apparently from something aired in 2013:

How accurate is Schleich's Dracorex?

How accurate is Schleich's Dracorex?

I'm not an expert, but in my collection I try to have only one figure (I don't collect huge models) so I try to find the most accurate model in the market. Some models are too obsolete that I'll will wait for newer versions.
I have bought no Schleich figures but the Dracorex. I saw it in pics this year and I decided that that was the figure I wanted in my collection. It's a very good figure in my humble opinion. The purplish color may be a little striking but it's nice to have a fresh look. It stands perfectly and has a very dinamic pose.

I think this is by Vlad Konstantinov as well, so it's pretty likely.
Now if only they used his Psittacosaurus color scheme, then the figure wouldn't be retired so soon.

I'm not too sure about that, given Schleich's track record. Chances are it is not that interesting for their main demographic.
