Hello, where is everyone getting their REBOR figures from? I've been using big bad toy store and I'm wondering if there's a better site to get em from , as shipping one figure costs me about 40 bucks from BBTS

Try sending Dan from Dan's Dinosaurs a PM. Perhaps, he can work something out regarding shipping to Canada...

There's no way I could ever afford a REBOR figure (I struggle to afford to buy Papo figures! I try to keep all my essential needs done and dusted before I spend money on treats.)
but if I got one, I'd get the Y-rex, and, although I'd probably fail, I'd try to add some more proto-feathers on the body with some scalpel marks and probably sculpt some bigger feathers out of clay for the head, arms, legs and tail. I know Y-rex had long feathers but I like the pose on REBOR's sculpt and would like to keep that shape.
I would buy Safari's over REBOR if I really wanted a Yutyrannus, because that's cheaper and (ironically) more accurate, but REBOR's would fit in with my Papo figures.

I hope REBOR didn't forget about their 'winter variant Y-rex'....

Absolutely, though Rebor is still the best in my opinion. I tried placing some Schliech dinosaurs next to the Rebor's, and they stuck out like a sore thumb. Only Paposaurs are cool enough to hang out with Rebor dinos. :))

REBOR is at least triple the quality (and production values) of Papo models, but the texture quality and style is close enough for them to 'hang out' in the same space.  I definitely agree. Unfortunately, Papo doesn't release too many models. The advent of REBOR has been a blessing  ;D

I hope the 'Ravage' (Allosaurus Maximus) is somewhat similar to the Papo Allosaurus but simultaneously superior in every way.

Some Schleichs work relatively well with Papos, but they look rather silly when juxtaposed with REBORs.

Viking Spawn

I'm eagerly awaiting the reveal of Ravage!  I think Rebor style will be a perfect fit with an Allosaurus species!

Before ravage, but first,let me take the acro...if rebor releasing Their model one by one but in a short time my wallet will dying  :-\ lol

Oh don't worry...  I haven't forgotten Acro.  Should be about a month for that one!   ;)

I'm really looking forward to seeing how Ravage turns out. I've always been an Allosaurus fan for reasons I can't quite explain. I love Papo's version and think it's one of their best, so I would hope that Rebor's is much better.

Yes I totally agree with tanystropheus, Papo have seem to have lost a bit of their sparkle or imagination in their dinosaur models. The last really nice ones were the Carnotaurus and Dimetrodon.

REBOR have been releasing some nice models and the addition of the bases adds to their desirability and they seem to have given us a perfect model with the Acrocanthosaurus in the sculpt and details (which they never had a problem with it) and hopefully quality control. Though they really do need to launch a website and release a catalogue cause they have enough products now and apparently have a lot more neat stuff planned. I just wish they were a bit better in their communication.

So Rebor is definitely making an Allosaurus? I'd assume so if you have its name.
