Chinese & Japanese novelties - New for 2024 (various companies)

[Halichoeres]

Ha, fair, well the extinct ones, or the terrestrial ones. I think this is only the second Arctodus toy, after the ugly rubber Sbabam one. Before they published the names I had assumed if was a big rodent like Josephoartigasia.

From wenno.

Nothing special since their toys are basically cheaply made stuff sold at premium prices but the placoderm is interesting

How can we get these? Some are just weird enough to be intriguing!

Looks like they sell them stateside... without the aquatics. 😢

I've searched AliBaba endlessly but can't find anything like these. I assume nobody else has managed to find this set?

Found this 2024 online catalog which shows the wenno set. Haven't been able to find it anywhere yet, other then those repackaged assorted 12 piece sets through google images (sold on walmart and the like).

Wasn't there a Wenno representative active on the forum, if only briefly, a couple years ago? I wonder if we could get in touch with them.

Animal Heavenly Body Bayannurosaurus, possibly a first for the genus?



And a company called Gruezi Lab is releasing two really expensive vinyl figures of Carnotaurus:


"Schwartz" ("black" in German)


"Rot" ("red" in German)
