Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus

I do not like the pink ear and nostril holes. This model (from this picture at least) to me does not look as good as the original pic we were shown. I'll probably still get it, though.

Small things like that probably aren't as noticeable in person VS  a larger pic with a flash on it.

All of these dinosaurs are available at Dan's Dinosaurs already! :o
Actually, although all of them are on his site, you can only purchase the Sucho and Megladon. Dan wouldn't be able to sell the others before Safari itself sells them  ::).
Well...he actually started selling this guy a little days before it was available to order at Safari's page.

In my opinion the Suchomimus in person is far better tan the stock photo.Wild Safari figures happen to look much better than the stock photos,I think.
Awesome figure. :)

You know that if you are too annoyed by the pink ears and nostrils, you could always repaint them. It's not that hard ;).

Right. I'm just saying that this is one of the differences from the stock photo that I first notice; it seems to me that there is more. Regardless, I love the model and will definitely purchase it.

Oh, okay. And I agree, it is awesome. I ordered it as a late birthday present :)).

How do you know what you're getting for Christmas? And why do you seem so...smart? ???

Yesterday, I received the new suchomimus in Safari. I was a bit disappointing by the painting on the face of this one but it's a good figure. Anyway, everyone is welcome in my ark of figures.:cheers: :cheers: :lol:



It looks better because we have a better picture with the normal colour.

Thanks for the pics.

The pink is a little annoying, but very easily fixed.  It's still a 1000 times better than the last thing they made and called a Suchomimus.

I think the same that you friend  ^-^.
[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"!?

Nice catch :)! Also, if anyone doesn't like how the jaws are bent, they can be fixed by heating the plastic, holding it in the position it should be in while putting the figure in cold water. I'll probably do that myself.

Woah, in that last pic I saw the papo spino (which I have) next to the Sucho and I thought " Oh crud that thing's big for a wild safari! :o"
Exactly how big is that thing???

The figure is approximately as the carnotaur figure by papo. :) :)

And I dont have that model, but i'll hopefully get it soon. Could you compare it to the Wild Safari 2010 T-Rex? ??? :D

I have the Carno and Rex here..I'd say they are about the same size..maybe the Carno is a bit shorter length-wise.

I don't have the t rex in safari but I will compare this one with an other figure ( maybe the gryposaurus in safari can be good to compare?).
I can try to compare with a papo or collecta figure.  :) :)

Hhmm, the Sucho isn't as good looking up close as I had hoped for. The head looks a bit goofy. Which still won't probihit me from buying it of course. ::)
