Dude mine have the 2012 versions, as well as Allos and Pachyrhinos...But they're on clearance. I'm sure they're going really fast. I better get mine, thing is, I feel they are grossly overpriced. $15 per human/dino? Pssffh.

[stargatedalek]

the JP3D (2012/2013) only had humans in the allo/pachy sets, they were $30 here when I got the allo, but I got the pachy on clearance for $15
whats really overpriced are those JP3 repaints

perhaps yours re-released some 2K9 (smaller human packs) along with them?

[EmperorDinobot]

2k9 version saw rereleases in 2012-2014 with slightly different packaging.

[stargatedalek]

that is news to me
unfortunately we never got them

[docronnie]

Thanks EmperorDinobot! 

Some new acquisitions:






I acquired the farthest yesterday, loose and badly beaten (couple of nails missing and the tail) for a little over a dollar.
The paint job is different from what I have acquired last year, specially the eyes.

Non-dinos but part of Dinotales:











TFL!

Wow... docronnie's on a kaiyodo roll....

[stargatedalek]

sinemys is one of my favourites

[Roselaar]

Kaiyodos still look gorgeous in extrem close-up, don't they? Too bad my cat knocked my Dunkleosteus off my shelf recently, severing its upper tail fin...

[stoneage]

   Nice pictures they turned out really well!

Interesting to see how different those paint jobs are. I think the "beaten one" might have the prettiest imho. Both are quite a bit different from mine too.

I am really thinking bout getting some of those!

[EmperorDinobot]

And I might be able to help you out...in the next 10 hours if I'm lucky.

Smooth it out a bit and fix the paint, and it will probably look more correct that way!

Seriously, the Dunkleosteus may be the biggest 'miss' of the whole Dinotales line--the near-homocercal tail is just so wrong, it makes the fish look awkward.

Thanks everyone! My wife took the photos, stoneage, so kudos to her.

I'm really hypnotized by the intricate details of these figures at this small scale. I keep wondering how skillful they made each one, Roselaar.

Alex,  I agree the beat up Schleich has a better paint job, but it looks tamer. I like the fierce look of the other. Kaiyodos are expensive on Ebay. I'm just lucky getting them at fair prices.

[EmperorDinobot]

Well, if y'all interested in non dinosaur Kaiyodos I just acquired a buncha animal Kaiyodos in order to...I dunno. Offer something new to the masses. Will sort them out once they arrive.

I got the Papo and Schleich put together round a piece of meat here, and they really fit well.

Bottom of the pic.

I honestly am not sure what fair prices would be. I see single pieces going as high as 30 dollars, but some sell em for around 3-5 dollars apiece. The latter sounds fair to me, but I am really unsure if it is...

[stargatedalek]

with Kaiyodo the prices aren't cut and dry, some had very limited distribution whereas others are fairly common

This just came in the mail:

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Nice!  I just ordered a copy myself this morning! lol

[sauroid]
