I thought the Stego had been out for ages? ???

It has been announced ages ago, but wasn't released until very recently....  ???

amargasaurus cazaui

I wondered if perhaps anyone could help by posting a list of the artists for the pieces? While some collect based on the animal , others might purchase a certain artistst's work more often. Just a request..thanks

Very considerate of you, thanks very much. I always wondered. I might focus on a few of the Jorge Blanco pieces

I believe Pablo Viggiano did the Brachio ornament :



I thought only one artist did each piece, but I do recall seeing that some were supervised by others..I think like Pablo would for Adrian if I recall.

Speaking of Adrian he's done some really nice Dinos in the past as well :




Yutyrannus

Spinosaurus
Apatosaurus
Allosaurus vs. Camarasaurus
But, of the three, spinosaurus is by FAR my favorite!

I do like the Spinosaurus..it's head is correct for one big point and she has lots of really nice spines that really give it an amphibious feel which speaks to it's probable lifestyle. It's also one pf the larger pieces in the range... ;D

How do you know it's a female? :)

1. T-Rex Maquette (because it has character and is very rare)
    long time nothing.......
2. Carnotaurus (the running pose looks so great)
3. Apatosaurus (because of its size and massive body)

but there are much more which are great, like the Spino, the Rex vs. Tric. Dio...

She is mentioned in the story included with the figure..see the page here at Dan's store : http://stores.homestead.com/hstrial-Dliebman2/-strse-260/Spinosaurus-Maquette-by-Sideshow/Detail.bok :)

I wonder if the poll needs to be reset now we actually have the Stego released.. ;D

 :)  I could reset all vote counts to 0 for a new round if you people want me to.

I just got a few of these are have a pre-order in for the Dilophosaurs. I don't think the Euo in egg is shown in the survey. Really nice work for the most part. My wallet is lighter, but I'm really happy with the ones I have, but I'm sorry I missed out on the Camarasaurus vs. Allosaurs.

I've got:

Apatasaurus
Rex maquette
Styrac
Spino
Brach in egg
Euo in egg

Nice haul Ricardo !  I've been keeping an eye out for a Rex maquette for you..glad you found one !

I think there were a couple of Allo VS Camara for sale on the sideshow collector forums awhile back. I'd keep an eye out there bud.

I think the Euo came out after the survey was done...might be about time for a new one.. ;)

I updated the list, because there is the new Dilophosaurus maquette. Some might also have changed their opinion.
I also had to reset all vote counts to 0. So, let's go for another round :)!
As before you only have three votes.

My vote: Apatosaurus, Tyrannosaurus & Styracosaurus maquettes :)

boba ben

1. Carnotaurus
2. Tyrannosaurus Rex vs. Triceratops
3. Stegosaurus

Carnotaurus is my favorite by far.  The T-Rex vs. Triceratops diorama is probably the most action packed piece in the line and Stegosaurus is my personal favorite that I actually own.   

I really have to reacquire the Carnotaurus and Tyrannosaurus vs. Triceratops pieces one of these days.

I appreciate that, man. Seriously looking for that one. Just swung a deal for the deinosuchus/parasaurolophus as well!
