Pachyrhinosaurus

The 'deltadromeus' reminds me of the Carnegie one, especially with the way they used the full binomial. Perhaps the name was inspired from there?

I'd go with they are just being lazy. ;)
Yeah, but Deltadromeus and Rapator are more obscure names than Velociraptor and Dilophosaurus. They are not names that most people would know off the top of their head. It seems weird that they would be lazy about that, but go to the extra effort of researching the names.

By the way, you can take the "pterosaurs'" head off. Not sure why, but it is detachable:


CityRaptor

Probabyl saving on glue.
If they included other heads, it would be like the Gakken Ceratopsian. So it looks more like it is part of a combiner, with the head forming an axe, while the rest attaches to the back of some sort of Super robot.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

I'm trying to figure out if they actually meant the genus Rapator or just misspelled "raptor"

Lovely acquisitions, this is my last them  ^-^.

[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

It's a bootleg of the Safari green Tyrannosaurus. This guy



But imagine it with less detail and a big ugly seam-line around the middle ;) And the legs on mine are distorted so it doesn't stand by itself very well.

What is "Reign of the Dinosaurs" like? Is it worth getting?

sauroid

it's a small paperback book. the infos are basic. i got it for the art that spans about 150 years, so there are tons of retro awesomeness.
