I love them all, they're so pretty :) In my opinion, this is the best depiction of Diabloceratops I've seen. The posture and colouration are great.

Very nice and tiny figure  ^-^.

I agree ... and I also really like Fabio Pastori's resin figure.

Pretty, but if they are like the TRex set from last year, they are smaller than the Kabaya Araki pieces which are the center of my small collection ... a pity ...

Yes, same size. The human scale figures are the same, just black instead of white.


I like this set even a bit more than the first T. rex set of this Capsule Q series. I can't wait to see what will be next. We have a theropod and a ceratopsian, so I guess next will be either an ornithopod, a sauropod or a thyreophoran.
My guesses: Parasaurolophus, Brachiosaurus and Stegosaurus. I wonder what the 'latest discovery - figures' will be then ^-^.

I'm really happy that Kaiyodo is back in the Dinotales business and to take part 'live' this time (avoiding to pay exaggerated prices in the future ;D).

your photos make the Kaiyodo Ceratopsians look even more beautiful

I especially love the picture with the two Troodons in comparison! Both are incredibly beautiful, but the David Krentz version is nothing less than one of the best dinosaur figures that have ever been made!

I love them. Incredible models and paint job.

Gorgeous models, I really love the patterning and colors used for the Protoceratops. Really nice Helge, Martin just continues to dazzle.

Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus

Wow. Really quite incredible!

Very good! But isn't the proportion of the jaws compared to the rest of the head and body a little out of sync?

amargasaurus cazaui

I almost bought one of these pieces, but the more I studied it, for my eyes at least it appears the head is much enlarged, and very thin in cross section...almost a V shape when you study it. The legs to me at least appear far too elongated and slender, and the body cavity is seemingly smaller and looks starved....ie the term shink wrapped, or emacciated.
This does nothing to negate the stunning build and paint up Martin has done with it however. My final thought before deciding against the dinosaur was that perhaps it could be a juvenile in which case the proportions, body shape, and skull size would work. At that point the seller seems to have jumped ship from the forum so I abandoned the idea.

That Protoceratops is a beautiful model, but it does look really thin and the ear in the temporal fenestra is a painful mistake (One I also made myself when I initially sculpted my Protoceratops) given how solid the anatomy is otherwise.

Thanks for the comment. I'm loving this model a lot :)!

Very nice and gracile looking Protoceratops. But the head does look a bit too big for the rest of the body....I know Proto was an odd looking creature, but it does seem strange.

QuoteAt that point the seller seems to have jumped ship from the forum so I abandoned the idea.
So the situation was never resolved? I also bought a Protoceratops from the guy, and actually did receive it, but I understand many other people didn't receive their orders. So is he a scammer? I don't mean to derail Postsaurischian's thread, just wondering.

I never received my Allosaurus from this bozo (at this point I'm not sure if it's a man or a woman), but apparently they have ripped off a bunch of people.  Many false promises of delivery and extra bonuses for being patient later, I filed a dispute with Paypal and hopefully will get my money back  :-\
I think they sold off their available stock to the first buyers and then continued to sell models they didn't have once the money started rolling in.  Anyway, sorry to derail your thread, H, I will delete this message and repost it later in the appropriate place, right now I just want to warn folks not to send this person any money at this juncture.  Will update when things are resolved.
Looks like I was one of the lucky ones :-[ Sorry to hear about you getting ripped off. I'm glad that PayPal protects buyers against this sort of thing.
