Thanks everyone. I figured there was a chance it was a knockoff of something, considering the rest of the figures from that seller. I searched around for other Eudimorphodons, but as y'all know, there aren't many figures of that animal. I didn't think to compare it to existing Dimorphodon figures. Oh well. I knew it was a risk, but a low-cost one. When it arrives, it'll make a fun addition to my sons' dino-toys.

I'd be careful with that, knockoffs and other illegal bootlegs are often not safety tested.
Now THAT is a great point!!! Thanks D @Dinoguy2 !!

Here's something you don't see every day... A Carnegie Museum snow globe featuring a Diplodocus model clearly based on the 2008 Carnegie Collection version.

The seller I bought my Bullyland Dire Wolf from has another one up on ebay. Starting bid is $29.95 US, but you could always do what I did and make him an offer.

New ?? Carcharodontosaurus sculpt form China:

The color scheme is cool but the patterning could be better.

Interesting. I don't really care for it but I'm curious about the maker.

In some of the pictures it says: "Tongde Zoo".

Ah, thank you. I looked them up and it seems like their main products are Schleich and Papo knockoffs. I don't recognize this particular mold, but the fact that they sell so many bootlegs makes me a little suspicious.

Looks to me like a Vitae Sinraptor that's been tweaked a bit and lost some of the detail. Like, know this is nowhere near being a unique pose for theropods, but the shape is just too similar.

Halichoeres

Oh, good eye, I think you're right. A relatively high-effort knockoff.

Yes, I agree - it looked familiar on first glance, though I couldn't quite place it; but that's it, the Vitae Sinraptor on steroids.

Thanks. A later version of this sculpt was one of the very first dinosaurs that I acquired back in the day. I can remember the excitement - it was palpable. I had gotten my hands on a Carnegie Safari T-rex, wow. Well, things have moved on since then, for sure, but this figure will stir up an old memory.

Oh no, apparently not - just got an apology from the seller. The deal was cancelled because there was no figure actually for sale. He had accidently submitted a year-old listing that he had sold previously! The good news - got a refund; the bad - no deal.

Hey guys, I'm thinning out my collection & getting rid of a bunch of vintage (and some not-so-vintage) dinosaurs, mostly from from CollectA, Schleich, & Wild Safari. Nothing really earth-shattering but some older pieces (like 1996-ish Safaris, some still with tags).

Here's a great chance to maybe fill some pesky holes in your collections

Here's one of the auctions, just go to my other auctions to see the rest. You might find something you've been looking for.

Also some vintage empty MPC prehistoric playset boxes, etc., if anyone is looking for homes for their loose MPC dino playsets!

Thanks for looking!

Not ebay, but this Mercari seller has a few lots with original color Carnegie figures included (Baby apato, Allosaurus, Parasaurolophus, etc.).
https://www.mercari.com/us/item/m21604950304/

Rare early version of the Carnegie T. rex in this lot on Etsy, along with a couple other Carnegies and Invicta T. rex. The Carnegie rex is a little beat up but decent price!
