Here's the three colour versions i found, the figures aren't to bad at all for knock offs.

Those bootlegs don't look all that bad, woulf make good customs. How big are they compared to the actual papo allosaurus?

Libraraptor

Those Allosaurus are quite decent, I think. Better than most Schleich... A size comparison picture with the original would be nice.

They are pretty much bang on the same size as the papo

I've got one to sell now - if anyone wants to buy it, please PM me! Will upload some pics shortly. It's the black & red version. I'll stick a thread in Classifieds as well.

EDIT here we are!











And a surprising detail!



Very tempted to review this figure before passing it on (if anyone wants to buy/trade for it) - would be good for a laugh.

I also have one of these for sale/trade - though, i may paint it up first... see if i can make something of it... and perhaps fix the pronation of the hands... (i dont know if pronation is a word)...

i actually hope a few more papo knock offs show up!!!

Atleast they named their bootleg something that is actually related to the figure they bootlegged. And it even works, as it seems to be slightly bigger than the Allosaurus.

Hmm color variantions seem to be based on ( but not faithful )
Papo Allosaurus
Dinosaur Revolution Allosaurus
Those large Chinasaurs, where every kind is brown with red eyes.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Takama

Man i hope i can get one of these here in the states.      A Saurophaganax :o

Himmapaan

Saurophaganax indeed, ahaha! :)) I can't believe we missed that from the first.

From the label it looks like the same company that does some cheap dinosaurs I've seen in The Entertainer, plus the huge foam ones and the alien egg slime toys.

Jetoar

[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"!?

I actually kind of like the red-and-black  Allosaurus   Saurophaganax, how much would it cost to buy it and ship it to the States?

Libraraptor

Eh, it's still an allosaurus to me. It was probably only labelled as "Saurophaganax" to avoid copyright infringement.

CityRaptor

Which is kinda silly, given that one can not copyright a real animal. But depending who you ask, Saurophaganax is Allosaurus anyways.
