I'll wait untill Decemeber to see if they hit the stores here in the Netherlands. If not, I will order them from Amazon!

If my patience can take that, I'll probably do the same. Most likely I'll get them online before that though. ::)

I love the number and the range of the articulations  on these little models...Are you going to review also the Ultimate Gorgon?

Not unless Vivid want to send me one for review ;). I only really bought the ones I did to review them, I wouldn't have otherwise, and the price tag on the big one is a bit too steep. Maybe someone who acquires it anyway would like to guest review it? :)

I plan on picking one up..but I'm not sure when. I'm sure being a mass market item the price will come down during sales and such too...that said if it shows up on walmart's shelves  this December or TRU I'll have it sooner.. ;D

Nice review Adam. I know some really don't like the joints showing, but the poseability factor makes these more unique. Something sit on your desk and play with when you should be working for example.. ;)

I still think should one want to it would be easy to pose these guys they way you want and putty up the joints giving some nice models ..and you can make them in different positions..create a whole herd of em'.

I didn't want to get this originally, but now I might. Once I get it  I can just find the pose I like best an then put clay over the leg articulation points an paint it like the rest of the leg :).

It's a shame that the model doesn't live up to its stock photo:



The colours don't seem to be as vivid. And there is a big difference in detail, especially around the head. Oh well, I'm sure little kids would enjoy it (and they are the film's intended audience after all)

Yutyrannus

I agree, it is a shame. But I still like the figure, the main thing that bothers me is the articulations on the legs.

Good review! Glad they don't actually talk. ;)

I have just ordered two of the Blind Bags. It took me a few tries to find a place to order them from that actually let me. I ordered two just so I can increase my chances of getting an Alphadon. ;)

The TV spot of Gorgon toys

Reminds me of the old JP commercials a bit.  Really hope these toys make it to the U.S. .

Uooh I hope to see this figures in my country  ^-^.
[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

Pah! You could do those on your own ;) :).

The dinosaurs have come to Norway! :)) My local toy shop, The Shop That NEVER Has Anything Good, has had the plushy pach for at least a month, so yesterday I asked whether they would be getting the action figures in. And shazam, today they had them all! The one thing I didn't see was the blind bags, but they were still shelving them when I came by.

I only bought the midsize Gorgosaurus, Troodon, and the 3pack of Pachies.

Mine is definitely vividly colored - metallic turquoise stripes and drybrushing down the sides and thighs.

So it is possible to order them from the US, that is good news :).

Well, I would be stupid if they never came.

To be honest, I tried to buy them before, but it was interrupted saying that they couldn't because I lived in the US. However, I finally bought them and I just recieved an Email saying they have been shipped. So, yes, it is possible.

Also, (unless someone else takes the spot first) I was thinking of maybe reviewing the figures for the blog? If that's okay?
