The pose of Hatzegopteryx is cool, but I am unsure wether to buy it.
I am definentnally getting that dead Stegosaurus.

That's Quetzalcoatlus, not Hatzegopteryx.

I was already corrected.

I think that I love the Charcarodonosaurus more too, it just took some getting used too.

The Quetzalcoatlus looks great, but I wish it was in a flying pose and without the poor Alamosaurus. I hate seeing dead sauropods...  :( Can the baby Alamosaurus be detached? The Quetzalcoatlus looks nice and a baby Alamosaurus would be cool as well.

The Carcharodontosaurus also goes straight to my (too long) wishlist.

Sorry, it's easy to glance past a post here and there.

I used to own the CollectA Tyrannosaurus with prey figure, which had a dead ornithomimid in its mouth. After a few months, I could easily pull the ornitho from its mouth completely without much force at all. I don't know if maybe the plastic had sagged/softened from the summer heat, or whatever, but if this new Quetzal is made from the same material, maybe the same thing could happen.

Carcharodontosaurus looks fantastic! 

The Quetz is better than the "Hatz" they released a couple of years ago ...

Ichthyovenator is looking mighty fine from that angle.  The base REALLY helps...

Collecta is 3 for 3 (not counting the dead Steg, which is OK, but kind of a 'side piece' to me) ...

does the alamosaurus come out of the jaws, it looks like it does.

Takama

They all look great, though CollectA did NOT take our advice and fixed the legs of the Ictheyovenator.

Also, I'm concerned that the Cachrodontosaurus is going to have the same standing problems as there Deinechirus, meaning its going to be released with warped legs and its going to be a ***** to fix. I was hoping they would add a base to it.

No.

Even altered this Carcharodontosaurus still looks better to me than the Mapusaurus. I was really disappointed in the Mapusaurus and was worried this guy would end up similar. From that picture though, it doesn't look too bad. I'm very excited for the Ichthyovenator, it might be my favorite from CollectA this upcoming year. The Quetz is pretty cool too. So far the only one I won't be getting is the dead Stegosaurus.

Excellent new pics! I'll be sure to get them all (as if there was any doubt on that front!). The Ichthyovenator sure looks improved, as does Carchie. The Quetz is awesome, though its pose is maybe a little bit too similar to the Hatzegopteryx's posture. But the poor little Alamosaurus makes the difference. Good to see Collecta once again opts for consistency and has made the baby Sauropod look very similar in colour to the existing adult figure. Though of course you can speculate babies would have been coloured differently, which I'm not gonna do.


amargasaurus cazaui

For my collection I will be getting the Carchie, and I am certain I will be getting the sauropod-processor.

The finalised version of the 1:40 scale Collecta Carcharodontosaurus. The pose has been altered with the head projecting forward and the head has also been lowered slightly.  The colours on this model are certainly brighter than on the prototype, perhaps most notably the more distinct bands on the body and tail and the blue flashes seen around the eye socket.



Everything Dinosaur should be receiving stocks of this 1:40 scale about the same the dead Stegosaurus arrives.
Not bad.Nice to see CollectA improving. :)
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?
