Bam.  Screw you Hasbro, these guys are coming to town.  Let's hope that they give us what we want from our JP/JW merchandise.

I'll have to wait til I see what they offer. I've heard their prop replicas are quite pricey. Now if the make figures and scaled models for a good price, no more than  a Sideshow I might go for it.

Just checked their web-site and a 24 inch Terror Dog from Ghost Busters cast from the original FX mould sells for $500 and $600 for two different editions but they don't explain the differences. At those prices I'll have to stick with the original Horizon models.

Yeah I saw those as well, sounds like a higher end line.  But "figures" to me sounds like something maybe more  in line with Hot Toys stuff? I'm game at 1-150.00 or so. Maybe a bit more if it's a really cool larger piece.

There are some pictures of an unfinished T rex on that news feed that look about the same size and quality as the Horizon T rex. They were asked on their Facebook page if they could get there hands on the sick Tricertops model mould from JP and they said "perhaps" or something to that effect. I wouldn't mind a JPIII Spinosaurus from the original mould but I would prefer a kit and they don't seem to make those. I guess I would go for a figure based on the mould in the $150 range.

I think that Rex was at Wonderfest? It was the female body with the TLW male head on it they said. Would have the female head when it was made.    I'd love a polystone dio of the scene with the sick trike..imagine Grant laying on her belly, Ellie and Harding checking her tongue/eyes, Gennero and the kids looking on..while Malcolm stares at his shoe wondering what he stepped in.  lol I'd pay for that.

I can't figure why no one has really dug into the JP license on the higher end of detail. I'd love a new bunch of kits like the Horizon pieces.  Sideshow could have kept going with their line..it's..nuts.  I really think that Rex bust they are offering now is way too much.  I managed to get a JP Raptor bust ( head/neck) from the studio copy and it was only 500.00 .

Was that one of the life sized casts that the Studio was selling for a while as well as the T rex bust? Research Castings International was doing those for them and I saw a bunch in a back room when I was there. I should have picked one up too at that price. Hate to think what it is worth today.

I hope that's true, but their other stuff reminds me a lot of Sideshow's premium format "figures," most of which cost $350+.

I'm not sure exactly, this one was bought from a fellow in the UK who purchased it in the US , I had Martin finish it up. It did need a lot of work.



A couple pics of it at home :

Man, Chris, why'd you have to go and share those photos? Now I have to sneak off to Tennessee and steal that raptor from your house.

It looks like the ones I saw at RCI but from your pictures show it wasn't painted I believe the Universal site was only selling finished pieces, dang I wish I had gotten one now. Its a shame how silly things like family, mortgage payments, food can get in the way of our collecting.

If only I could back in time armed with some meager funds..I'd return VERY broke but VERY happy.

Anyone wanna chop my Dilophosaur's frills off and give it a nice JP1 repaint once I get it? Will pay for supplies and labor!

I'm a bit far away and I don't do JP stuff, but I'm sure Copper would be happy to.

[EmperorDinobot]

I need to purchase a dremel tool. I've always wanted one and those things are super useful for all sorts of trimming jobs.

[Tyto_Theropod]

Me too! I generally use a craft knife, but I could do with a small drill. I'm always keener to buy more models.

I could give it a go if you wanted. I don't have any fancy tools but I'd be willing to bet any old craft (or even an outdoors) knife would work (that's what I used to edit my Carnegie Caudipteryx wings and Safari Deep Sea tube hatchetfish). What a coincidence I recently painted a Chap-Mei "gastornis" into something I felt a little more appropriate for the mold. If it seems like I'm your gal shoot me a pm to discuss further.

Are you talking about the new Jurassic World figure? I could give a go if you wanted. I've painted around 5 JP Dilos so far..so I sort of have it memorized by now..lol

Some interesting stuff popped up when I went into the Walmart and Target website and looked up jurassic world! It seems that Walmart now has Dilo, Cerato, and the basher and biter allosaurus. Target now has the mosasaurus. Or so Ive seen, so tommorow Im going to go to both of them and see if its true.  I will post if I see anything!

Target has the toys on sale:

Considering how expensive they are in the rest of the world, the JW line sure can afford to be on sale in the US.

[CityRaptor]

Yep. B&B cost between 12 and 14 Euros here. Saw the Allosaurus and Pachycephalosaurus in person today. Allo keeps on looking bad while the Pachy is definately one of the better JW figures, although clearly not worth the price.
Anyone else thinks it is odd that all three herbivores have a feature where they pop out their head?

[SpartanSquat]

Have you ever seen this before ?  is this from hasbro ? Hasbro is the only company who get jw license right ?

I saw them in local cinema!
