Old Carnegie Diplodcus, £1.99 from Ebay! I've wanted this model since I was little.


Carnegie Beipiasaurus, from Amazon.

[EmperorDinobot]

That Diplo is one of my favorite Carnegie molds. Sure it's outdated, but it exudes beauty, magic and cheerfulness. I love how it 'smiles'. Back in the day, popular reports of diplodocids often said that they 'looked as if they were smiling'.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

It may not be accurate anymore..but it's full of nostalgia..that tail did a lot of damage to my roving allosaur packs.

[critcho]

There is just something about it, Also the fact that the model made it into Jurassic Park was enough for me.

[sauroid]

just got this yesterday. beautiful art by Mauricio Anton.

[Ikessauro]

Seems like we can't get enough books, can we? Mailman just dropped three on my hands this morning!

[sauroid]

congrats Ikessauro. the prehistoric mammals book is pretty cool right? (i also have the Dr.T.R.Holtz jr/Luis Rey book). now all i need to get are the GSP princeton field guide, All Yesterdays and Dinosaur Art.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Just received the field guide last month..it's pretty handy for quick references.

[sauroid]

these arrived today (series 5, 2 variants) sealed/mint/unopened
(luckily, the only one i didnt get is the Carnotaurus.)

You´re a book addict, aren´t you?

[amargasaurus cazaui]

I am unsure if a repaint qualifies but this is my newest . The Tamiya Chasmosaurus pair, repainted by Martin Garratt.  I love the frill patterning and color choices.

[suspsy]

My trip to NYC was not as fruitful as I had hoped. The AMNH actually had a rather limited selection of Safari dinosaurs---and no other popular brands like Papo or Collecta. However, I did snag a Giganotosaurus. And at FAO Schwarz, I was able to find a Papo Allosaurus!



Two is definitely better than none!

[JurassicJr]

Are these JP toys out worldwide or just the US?

USA and Canada only supposedly, though some have popped up in Malaysia.

[JurassicJr]

I just received the Toys R Us exclusive Allosaurus and Pachyrhinosaurus showdown sets, I ordered them via the Toys R Us website!

[Invicta Hunter]

Wow why would they do that, it's unfair to everyone else. If that's the way Hasbro wants to treat everyone else around the world they can go stick these US exclusives up their arse for all i care, i will not waste my money on importing these new figures.

Hahaha, I actually agree. To be perfectly honest, I don't see why anyone would want to spend money on these figures anyway, when the Papo ones are far superior in detail and quality Just my opinion, of course...
