Dawn of the Dinosaurs: Triassic Toys

[Gwangi]

Jeeze, I can't believe I forgot to put the CollectA Liliensternus in my group picture! Now I have to take another one...

What a great thread! I had no idea the Dawn of the Dinosaurs line even existed. Does anyone have any photos?

I do wish companies would pay a little more attention to this era. I wouldn't mind seeing a Cymbospondylus, some kind of thalattosaur, a Kannemeyeria, and some more of the big temnospondyls. I have to say, though, that I feel lucky to live in a world where I can have Postosuchus, Arizonasaurus, Triadobatrachus, and Mastodonsaurus on my shelf.

Was under the impression that the dawn of the dinosaurs was just a name chosen for this thread, which is to showcase figures from........

Dawn of the Dinosaurs is actually a set of figures from an Exposition in demand. I don't have any pictures handy but here's a link to Clawmark Toys' page as they still sell them:

Acheson Designs sells a a nifty Kannemeyeria:

I, too, wish more Triassic figures would get made. I think it's the most interesting Mesozoic era, actually. The Bullyland figures for the Triassic are outstanding and I'd give a lot to get them to make more.

[Halichoeres]

Thanks for the info, Chad! When I saw that Kannemeyeria in the photo, I thought right away, "Way out of my price range," but then I saw the actual price and it's pretty reasonable.

[Chad]

It's a nice little figure though keep in mind in comes unpainted. I hope they'll consider making more figures and they have a nice selection of species available. The Cotylorhyncus is a nice one, too. Their feathered Gallimimus is pretty great, as well.

These are the 3 resin figures from the 2010 "Dawn of the Dinosaurs" exhibition.
The Frenguellisaurus came in two versions.



  Exaeretodon


  Frenguellisaurus


  Saurosuchus

I love the Exaertodon. He looks like a character from a Ralph Bakshi cartoon.

That Exaertodon, it looks so...so sad! I just want to make him feel better about whatever is ruining his day. Seriously though, I need to know how to get this set.

[SpittersForEver]

How do I get this set please? It looks amazing!

Probably Archosaurs.

Oh I'm sure, they ruined the day for a lot of synapsids.

Yep. Digging up the old thread for this collection: http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=684.0

They are pretty much doing it on the boxart:

Go back in time about four years when the exhibition was on in Japan, and hope you can find a seller  . Clawmark Toys still had a few of the smaller capsule figures last I looked (it's been a while) but the bigger polystones were quite pricey even when new, and not all that easy to get (I only have the Frenguellisaurus).

If you need a larger Saurosuchus, there is one from Acheson creations that is easily available:

It's a plastic figure and you'll have to paint it yourself. This is the one I have:
