Thanks TQ!  Glad you liked the Happinet Ceratosaurus.  All 3 Happinets are stamped "JAPAN".

Thanks TQ for confirming the Favorite 2012 Tyrannosaurus! 

Thanks a lot therizinosaurus and Blade-of-the-Moon for clarifying things regarding these Carnegie models! 

[Jetoar]

Giant Centipede is amazing and big    .

[tanystropheus]

The Wild Safari Diabloceratops is quite a gem. Most pictures don't do it justice, plus it is a relatively small model so it looks much better in person than those atrocious zoom-in stock photos that are circulating about.

I already have the Dimorphodon and I am very impressed with it. It is certainly one of the better pterosaurs released by WS. It also happens to be the only mass-market representation of Dimorphodon!

I will probably pick up the Gryposaurus next (along with Edmontosaurus)...

[therizinosaurus]

Picked up a JP Series 2 Pachycephalosaurus and TLW Velociraptor for $2 each. Very excited

[Takama]

Got a movie called Dino King (no relation to the The Dinosaur King Cartoon) Its actaully Speckles the Tarbosaurus




Im gonna Watch it tonight to see what I think.

I've seen "Speckles the Tarbosaurus" and it's horrible. The voice acting is cringe worthy. There were several parts that made me facepalm (like with the stampeding herd running off the cliff like zombies) and the Lion King/Land Before Time ripoff plot.

I can only emphasize this. If someone wants the DVD I can send it to him or her for just the shipping costs.

Awesome ! I'd love to see some more non-commercial pics of the pair.

Ha! I bought The Dino King a couple of days ago for £4 and haven't watched it yet. Figured it couldn't be bad for that price but it didn't realize it was Speckles the Tarbosaurus. I've heard so many bad things about that. Nevermind, can't be as bad as when I bought Dinotasia for £10.

It did strike me as odd how the blurb stated two Tarbosaurus come into contact with a Tyrannosaurus rex considering the geographical unlikeliness of it all, but maybe there is some sort of hypothetical land-bridge or something - either that or the researchers weren't thinking to educate anyone whatsoever and just chased after the word 'T-rex' like a dog with a stick.

And please tell me the animals don't talk in it.

[tyrantqueen]

And please tell me the animals don't talk in it.

Well, the animals don't talk themselves, but there is a narrator for Speckles himself. For the first part of the movie, it's a woman trying to sound like a little kid, and it's painful to the eardrums. When he grows up, he is narrated by a man, but the acting isn't much better.

Here's a sample of the horribleness:

I also thought it was funny to notice that the 3D models for the Tarbosaurs look like the V-rex from Peter Jackson's King Kong

[sauroid]

that baby Tarbo looks creepily similar to the Papo baby T.rex

[Concavenator]

that baby Tarbo looks creepily similar to the Papo baby T.rex

Yes,that's too true!  LoL

[CityRaptor]

And the Tyrannosaurus looks a lot like the one from Dinosaur King.

As I've written above - I could send it to you for just the shipping costs from Germany .

[Crackington]

Isn't that the whole film Tyrant Queen's posted above?

I stopped watching after 8 minutes, but it said there was 1 hour 28 altogether and it was showing no signs of stopping. It looked like you could keep watching the whole film if you were mad enough.

I liked the pterosaur flight at the beginning, but agree with the above, the problems started when the baby narration set in!

Yes, someone posted it in multiple parts on Youtube. You could watch it on there, if you were crazy to like this piece of junk to begin with.

...Sorry, I just hate this film

[Gwangi]

I skipped ahead a few minutes into the movie just now and heard that awful voice say "My mom is a Tarbosaurus" and I seriouly could no stop the video fast enough.

[Jetoar]
