[cooksonia]

That bloke looks very unwell

[dragon53]

Bubo the Owl.

[cooksonia]

Is he a vampire?

[Thialfi]

No, an owl.

(I don't think there is any need to comment on peoples physical appearances - I hope we're better than that.)

[Halichoeres]

I've preordered the Spinosaurus/Onchopristis, but I'm really just in it for the fish, so if anybody wants to buy the Spino off me at a discount, let me know!

[Lynx]

this would look great for a diorama with resin water, but just on a shelf? not so much. its a cool idea but uh

That T-Rex figure about to eat the lawyer Gennaro figure is really impressive---I would like to see the painted version.


I also would like to see Star Ace release a T-Rex figure eating a Lex Murphy figure because the twit girl turned on the flashlight---but didn't know how to turn it off.

I like the Gennaro and toilet!    been waiting for Nanmu to make it, but they would rather give a random barbarian lol, and Mattel I think was the first to make one? Now this hahaha.

Being a model kit someone will have to buy one and paint it for that to happen.  I haven't seen them make a painted version of anything that released as a kit first. Looking at Vampirella there..also Universal Monsters! but kit versions..yay..

[Halichoeres]

Got my shipment notification from BBTS!

[dragon53]

Talos from JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS.

My Dunkleosteus acanthodian diorama showed up yesterday! Saving it to open over the weekend.

Although it's simpler, I think they did a better job on the mammoth base than on the Dunkleosteus base.

Wow that's an absolutely stunning Spinosaurus from them. Far too much for me though, so fingers crossed that Mesozoic Life one comes through. @Halichoeres How's the Onchopristis included?

[Halichoeres]

Not great, honestly. I'm a little disappointed. This is a beautiful composition overall, and like James Gurney's excellent artwork for the recent Spinosaurus press release, the dinosaur is lovingly detailed. But in both cases the fish is an afterthought. Gurney reconstructed it like a river dolphin with extra fins, and Cooper has frankly done a pretty poor job here as well. The rostrum is the wrong shape, the teeth are the wrong shape, the dorsal fins are in an improbable position, and I'm not sure if it's just wrinkles or if he gave it lateral gills.
