Cool to see Dejankins has some Ads out there

He should also come to the dinotoyblog/forum - we could host an ad. We get enough visitors

I believe he did on the original version. His name was Deanosaurus

[ZoPteryx]

Autumn issue of Prehistoric Times, and the Carnegie Cryolophosaurus and Beipiaosaurus

Just out of curiosity, do you think you could give a little summary on what the GSP Dino Field Guide article is about?  Please.

[Nebuloid]

Yes, we started afresh here at V2 early in the year Checked my Giganotosaurus, it is labelled correctly, on my figure at least

Ok well, glad to be back ! Here is some proof :

[paleoferroequine]

And last, but not the least, some mammals

What is that one meant to be?

It's meant to be Metridiochoerus.

Oh, it's not about new species being added, if that is what you're after. No new illustrations or anything like that. The first part is basically GSP explaining the criticism he received from PFGTD, and defending his position. Also, he talks about his opinion on the current state of dinosaur taxonomy. Top it all off with GSP's usual smattering of arrogance and there you go.
In all honesty, it did not interest me much.

The bottom of the figure should say what it is supposed to be. I have always seen this figure referred to as a warthog.
Metridiochoerus only had two pairs of tusks.

[alexeratops]

Does anybody have the WS Kaproshuchus? I feel like I'm the only one who has it.

[Bokisaurus]

That figure is so few years ago
I'm pretty sure most of us have that figure

It says warthog on it, but it makes a good metridiochoerus figure despite the extra tusk
I can safely add him to my prehistoric mammals

Ok well, glad to be back ! Here is some proof :

The misspelling of the name is not the only difference,yours also has the scale 1:40 in the text.That is not present in mine.I got mine in 2008 when it was first released,so it was a first run model.That may be why mine has slightly different text on the bottom.

You aren't the only one.I happened to have gotten a hold of that one too when it came out early last year.

Thanks Tyrantqueen!   So it's basically just what he's said before, gotcha.  I was hoping for some explanation as to why he included Guanlong with Monolophosaurus though, beyond the crest.  I suppose some things will just remain a mystery.

[Seijun]

I could not resist these. Bronze carnegies!

[Jetoar]

Autumn issue of Prehistoric Times, and the Carnegie Cryolophosaurus and Beipiaosaurus

Just a little sneak peek for anyone who is curious...

Oh I would like to read Prehistoric Times some day  .

[Jetoar]

Hi, seems this forum had moved. Needed to create a new account !?
Anyway look at this box that arrived today !





Love the little kosmoceratops , very nice little figure. Oh and my giganotosaurus says gigantosaurus on the bottom, is this normal ?

Good Acquisitions and big lot, congratulations!. I see that you have the new Brachio  .

[rubicon]

[docronnie]

Got my first Dinosaur:


Triceratops by Schleich

[Takama]

I could not resist these. Bronze carnegies!

Are those actaully legitiment from Safari?   Or some molded knockoffs


Also,


Thanks to Pawnosuchus

[Seijun]

Takama: They are not legitimate from what I can tell. The seller says they are not marked, and I have never heard of carnegie or safari having made any metal figures.
