Two books, coincidentally both have the same name.





Both have wonderful illustrations, but I really love the feathered velociraptor in the AMNH book.

Chap Mei. It belongs to their old Dino Quest line. Not their best figure. They got better when they made their various Dino Valley lines.

Thanks. :) dont have a Dilophosaurus like that showing its frills. Not sure what to call it. Not bad for 5$.

Cool books TQ, that second one looks like it has some really good illustrations. Is that supposed to be Tyrannosaurus on the cover? Interesting take if so.

These arrived today:

Very cute (and rather big!) Playskool Definitely Dinosaurs figures, and a nice boost to my still small but finally growing Battat collection: one regular figure, four minis. Now for the rest of them. That's gonna take a while...  ::)

A very nice Velociraptor, probably quite close to what it really looked like and not the too spectacular approach.

Indeed! It's great to see that in an actual book, especially a kids' book. Though there appears to be a featherless version on the page opposite for some reason. Maybe it's about how our perceptions have changed over time?

Those are little booklets that they used to make for the individual lines to put with the Mountain displays (like the Monterey Bay and Smithsonian Insects as well). Now they just do a larger booklet for the entire Safari line.
