Schleich - new for 2014

[SpittersForEver]

the Penta is ok and i might even buy it. at least it isnt as horrible as the last Triceratops.

Yep definatly.

[CityRaptor]

The Penta is probably Schleich's best Ceratopsian so far.

let me correct myself: at least it isnt as abominable as the last Styracosaurus

Make that best Dinosaur so far

I doubt that, some of the ones I own are quite good. They are the old ones such as the brachiasaurus.

[SpaceCrab]

I quite like the Therizinosaurus and Pentaceratops, but the other two look pretty bad.

I agree, Schleich used to have some pretty good models. Their Parasaurolophus is still among the best for that genus.

[SpittersForEver]

Which one?

[Megalosaurus]

Which one?

This one:


But also they have other good prehistorics like:

[SpittersForEver]

Yeah that one is good, the later one's colour scene has chinasaurus written all over it.

In case anyone's interested, here some close shots of the new Tyrannosaurus









One of the things I noticed is that they are no longer putting the name of the dinosaur on there belly.  Just goes to show how much they care about the creatures

[Gwangi]

What made you decide it was even worth getting?  Just curious.

[Takama]

well I hated the other ones pose.   I thought this one was a little more realistic, despite its bright coloration and clown feet, and the tail seemed longer in the publicity photos, so that had me get it as well.

I also have the Kaiju monster Therizinosaurus coming to me from DeJankins.   I might get it on Tuesday

[Gwangi]

To each their own I guess. The shame of it is that the detail on these new Schleich dinosaurs really is pretty good. It's just the proportions, paint job, accuracy and well...everything else that works against them. The Pentaceratops is the only one that interests me.

If you look at that  one for a bit he really does resemble the newer toy story rex toys in a big way.

I'd sell it in my shop for about 5.00 ..wonder if Schleich does major wholesale pricing ?

$5.00? I'd sell it for $0.99

... or maybe they just got caught violating the "Truth-in-Advertising" laws?

He wouldn't be making a profit then. In fact, he'd be losing money.

Yes and they sell for a lot more in the shops.
