amargasaurus cazaui

I hope you meant most recent and not last as that would be tragic .
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

I enjoy watching Planet Dinosaur with my kids, it might be their favorite.  Then they want to watch land before time@  Of course they like WWD as well.

I went to my first meeting with my math tutor today, I think it went really well and I got along with her really well. Then my mom took me to value village, I picked out a ton of shirts, some fishing themed pajamas, some shirts with eagle patterns, and some transformers shirts which are really cool. Despite my desperately trying to save money right now I just couldn't pass up on some knock-off JP and some chap mei.

The knock-off JPS1 raptor is actually pretty interesting. Its not just a plain recast, its a re-sculpt, which to be honest had me thinking it might have been from another Hasbro line for a few seconds until I saw it had to makers info on it. The plastic is also very soft and malleable, reminiscent of the plastic safari ltd uses for some of their pterosaurs (IE tupandactylus(/tapejara) and ornithocheirus).





The stegosaurus by Scientific Toys ltd (a brand as yet unfamiliar to me) is nice, but not amazing. It definitely has a lot of detail for its size, but the soft material is prone to damage (as further obvious by this being a second hand figure). The neck is unseemingly short and the thagomizers are positioned vertically, but other than that it appears fairly accurate.




I don't know why it appears so often, but this is probably my fourth or fifth green/purple Chap Mei ornitholestes. In contrast I only have the one white/red (which for whatever reason has a much more detailed paint app). Both pictured are second hand.

All of them? That must have cost you a small fortune... But considering their splendour, it may likely be worth it. :)

With shipping included it came out to something like $87 per kit. Having them finished, on the other hand...  ::)

This whole order came from urzeitshop.de, took only 2 days to get to the Netherlands.
The anatomy Trex isnt from Famemaster, but Revell, got it at ToysXL...
