Maybe...but I'm not in any rush to get it.

QuoteLooks pretty cool.  I've been waiting for Shane to make one..if I recall correctly he has one in the works.  Would love one in 1:15 to go with my Tylosaurus. Still need to get his new Elasmosaur though.
Although it's technically not a kronosaurus, I think he is sculpting a liopleurodon for Pegasus Hobbies. It's 1/24 scale



Must have for sure :)
That this is in the works is good to know,thanks for the heads up! :)
Don't you hate it when you legitimately compliment someone's mustache and she gets angry with you?

Here's my new Kaiyodo haul >:D

1/20 Dinoland Tyrannosaurus rex



I read on the old forum that this particular paint variant was rare. Is there any truth behind this? I actually won it for an incredibly cheap price, because the owner did not have any idea of its worth and listed it in the model boat section :o



It's a little bigger than the Shinzen Tyrannosaurus :)

Also on a less interesting note, but still shown here for posterity, my two new Dinoland kits:


1/20 Elasmosaurus. It's going to be a huge kit when it's assembled.


1/20 Parasaurolophus. By today's standards it looks a bit shrink wrapped but I still like it a lot.

Blade-of-the-Moon

I'm not sure exactly how rare it is when compared with the other display model and the kit.  I used to see them off and on , on Japanese auctions.   There is one on ebay but I feel it's over-priced.

The elasmosaurus is an awesome piece when built/painted. I managed to get mine as a gift when I was younger and only built it  a few years ago.

The Para is classic, look at Will Stout's art and you tell he used it for references. ;)

That's a really nice looking Dinoland Tyrannosaurus, it's the older version right?

sauroid

that dinoland rex is just beautiful. if only the pose was more dynamic...

Thanks guys :)

QuoteThat's a really nice looking Dinoland Tyrannosaurus, it's the older version right?

Yep, the new version has a wider snout and a new set of teeth. Here's a photo I found on Google



I wanna ask..which version do you guys think is better? Old or new?

Invicta Hunter

I don't know really, they both look great in their own way.
It would be cool to own both and have them side by side. If you don't mind me asking how much did you pay for it?

sauroid

i like them both too. the older version is more feminine looking

I actually paid more for the shipping than the model :-[ It cost £8 (which includes payment for the proxy service) and £23 for the shipping.

I had seen this particular model listed on the site several times, but no-one wanted it. Not sure why.

sauroid

wow that's practically "a steal"

I think it was well worth the money for such a good model.

Indeed, it could be the lowest price anyone has ever paid for a Dinoland model >:D It is, at least, the lowest I've paid so far. Hope that doesn't sound too arrogant... :-X

Hello Dino community!

Tyrant Queen, i see your spinosaurus from shapeways there.

Much larger than the specs on the site seemed to indicate. I am a 3-d modeler who recently got into scale dino toys for my son's education, and my own deep love of dinos!

So, naturally i made a dino for shapeways myself, but was aghast at the price of nearly $240 US.

http://www.shapeways.com/model/1596317/spinosaurus-1-60-scale.html?li=search-results&materialId=91



So i didn't have it printed, and didnt' put the refined model up on the site at all, as it seemed well outside a reasonable price range to produce a line of toys at the 1/60 (1 inch to 5 feet) range i was looking for.

But it looks to me like the spinosaurus you have obtained from shapeways is nearly a fifth of the price!

Confusing.
