Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 1 - 4

[docronnie]

It seems Bandai and Sega Toys joined forces to produce these miniature Candy Toy Dinosaur King figures.  I am trying to complete this line by chance only.

[tyrantqueen]

I used to have that Torosaurus

[SBell]

I have a suchomimus from the series. I'm quite fond of the little guy.

[docronnie]

These figures are tiny. Almost the same size as the Kaiyodo Dinotales.

You gave your Torosaurus away, TQ?

Do you have the complete sets, Sbell?

[tyrantqueen]

You gave your Torosaurus away, TQ?

Yep

Not of the little ones. Just got the one figure (from this set. There are a lot of Dinosaur King sets).

[docronnie]

Finally got a Baryonx!


Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 4 Baryonx - April 2008

[Simon]

Finally got a Suchomimus!

Hmmmm .... I don't know if this was a case of life imitating art or vice-versa, but I instantly knew I had seen that mug before ...

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

lol despite his tiny size I really did like that figure !

[docronnie]

lol despite his tiny size I really did like that figure !

Me too!  My wife took the shot.

[docronnie]

Have new ones and just found out that these have serial numbers, which divides them into 4 groups.

[Ultimatedinoking]

Two things

One, carnomichiganus? Sigh.

Two, that amargasaurus has a creepy smile.

[docronnie]

Here are my new ones:


Tyrannosaurus


Saichania


Pachycephalosaurus

Here are the serial numbers:

All Book 1 figures - 45555
All Book 2 figures - 2018575
All Book 3 figures - 2024182
All Book 4 figures - 2032364

The Spinosaurus on my first post is a Book 4 figure.  I also have the Book 1 figure and they are different.  Book 1 Spinosaurus does not have a tongue sticking out.  I was not able to take a photo, because I discovered the difference after the photo shoot. 

[docronnie]

A new addition.


Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 4 Transparent Triceratops - April 2008

[Daspletodave]

These are pretty decent for such little figures.

[CityRaptor]

It probably helps that those are japanese figures and the guys behind Dinosaur King made sure that the Dinosaurs are mostly accurate. Ofcourse some are outdated by now.

[docronnie]

Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 1 Spinosaurus - April 2007

[docronnie]

Just got these:


Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 1  Triceratops - April 2007


Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 3 Carcharodontosaurus (?) - December 2007

[docronnie]

Just found today a Book 3 Tyrannosaur.

Almost complete, lacking 2 Tyrannosaurs and a Stego. 

[terrorchicken]

got a few of these...I wish I could get the carnotaurus and some of the rarer ones but they are hard to find or too pricey now...
