Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

Okay then, here's a few more pics of the Spino trio:

The swimming Spinosaur has its right arm raised more so than in the stock pics, probably for stability reasons.

I'm not interested in acquiring the Deluxe, but I would still like to see some pics, please.

Don't you like it?

It looks great, but I already have Paddles and Waddles. I really don't need Waddles Sr.

[Shonisaurus]

The three Spinosaurus look great.

Spinosaurus deluxe Collecta is more realistic in terms of your paint other figures of dinosaurs of the same brand.

Particularly I like the dinosaurs and prehistoric animals are painted in a realistic and at the same time they are not unnatural color

I wasn't a fan of the crocodilian features when it was announced and I'm even less fond of them now. The vertebrae are also extremely shrinkwrapped. The forward section should be a sloped ridge like a chameleon, thicker at the bottom near the back and narrowing over the top. Whereas the section over the hips displaying thicker columns should be a near uniform thickness as it goes up, more like a hump. And even the JP/// Spinosaurus didn't spider web between the columns. Alas, these are by far the most accurate Spinosaurus on the market and I will probably get the deluxe. I'd have loved to get the swimming one but I just can't unsee that dislocated leg...

Congrats regardless, from a design perspective they are very impressive and interesting figures.

Now I know what was bugging me about it, the green airbrush on the deluxe Spinosaurus. It lacks some contrast with the rest of the"ochre" body.
Still
As I said like a hundred times, I´m going to get that big guy no matter what

I think the Deluxe Spino looks great.  How big is it compared to, say, a Papo running Rex?

Also, no pics, but I'm now a member of the "I own a Primeval Raptor" club lol.  Sadly, mine has really, REALLY loose joints, especially in the legs.  It refuses to stand unless it pulls a Wild Safari Velociraptor pose and drags a hand on the ground.

Yes please, I also want to see a comparison of those two

I had to tighten one leg on mine, you need to be really careful but a drop of crazy glue onto the ball joint followed by moving it constantly for a few minutes so it wont set in place works wonders.

Thanks RobinGoodfellows!

Per request, a pic with the Papo Running T-Rex (bit blurrier than I had hoped for, but you get the gist of things):

Papo Rex stands taller and is heavier, but the Spino is longer. Both have poseable jaws, but Collecta hasn't mastered that art as well as Papo has yet.

Those spinosaurus are screaming "REPAINT ME" in my opinion.

Those spinosaurus are screaming "REPAINT ME" in my opinion.

Why, because they all have the same colouration? I kinda like such consistency. And I don't think these colours are so offputting. But they would make for great custom material. I look forward to see what people can do with them here.

Also, the two smaller Spinosaurs are bigger than most standardly sized Collectasaurs. I was also pleasantly surprised by that.

..some Collecta, Papo, Bullyland and a Diplocaulus by Vitaly Klatt for Urtzeitshop...



Have a nice day
