REBORN

[tyrantqueen]

They couldn't use Reborn because that name is already taken by creepy dolls.

That explains why i see a bunch of creepy dolls when i try to search Rebor Items on Amazon

I think it is the past present perfect participle of the word, "rebirth".

I don´know if any of you guys have noticed it, but I think Rebor is making a mistake saying that their dinosaurs are in 1/35 scale.

Although I don't own any Rebor product there are some that I´m very interested. Since I am one of those "scale people" if you want to call it like that, scale is very importan for me, so I wanted to know how big their dinosaurs really were.

I watched JurassicCollectables videos of Rebor´s dinosaurs and I take the measurements that he shown in the reviews, since you have to take in to account curved necks and body I added to those measurements a few more centimeters based on how much curved the neck or tails were to get an approximation of what the figure´s measurements are with straight necks and tail. I have made this with Yutyrannus, T.rex, Utahraptor, Ceratosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus, and what I got.........

They are more or less like 1/30. Also, if you don't use the max size for Utahraptor (7m) you will get an even bigger scale. And don´t mention the Ceratosaurus. Rebor said that the largest estimates for C.dentisulcatus are 8 meters, if you use those measurements then the Ceratosaurus is in 1/30. But I believe that the largest estimates for C. dentisulcatus are 7m, so that means you are left with a bigger Ceratosaurus. With Tyrannosaurus you will probably have to use Sue´s length (12,3m)and Yutyrannus is the only one that you can use the regular lenght (9m) The Acrocanthosaurs can use something between the lower and higher length estimate (11-12m).

So what do you think guys?

Anyone wanna try to confirm what I said?

Should somebody tell Rebor about this?

...since you have to take in to account curved necks and body I added to those measurements a few more centimeters based on how much curved the neck or tails were to get an approximation of what the figure´s measurements are with straight necks and tail.

I think that's why you may be getting odd results - making assumptions on curvature lengths, etc. can lead to some pretty substantial differences in calculated scale depending on small differences in your assumptions. However I do find it interesting that you came up with a consistent 1/30 scale for the various figures. If you really want to gauge the scale of these figures, it would probably be best to either have the figures in hand to do your own measurements, or get measurements of the head and scale that to known skull specimens.

When I said a "few more" i mean less than 2 usually
Besides there are some whoose necks and tail are almost no flexed like the Utahraptor so sometimes it will be less than 1cm, but even if you dont count that I still think that is bigger than 1/35

[Halichoeres]

I think MLMjp is right. I don't own any Rebor figures, but in comparison shots between their T rex and the Papo running rex, the Rebor looks substantially larger. I used to own the running rex, and by my measurements (tailor's measuring tape) it was about 1:35. Then again, I find that the majority of figures that come with an "official" scale are larger than the scale the manufacturer gives. Schleich's Replicasaurus line, Battat, and, most egregiously, CollectA's deluxe line are usually larger than 1:40.

Hi Arul, you want to replace "is" with "does". 

[Halichoeres]

I think it's a mystery to all of us!

[Arul]

Well at least we will have 5 figures in 2016

Thank you Sim i have to learn more  bad grammar, bad grammar !

[Takama]

I think those Little Raptors eggs are The Deinonychus Pack that supposed to accompany the dead Tenotosaurus.

Just my guess

[Viking Spawn]

New Teaser alert!

[MLMjp]

The Tenontosaurus corpse definitely. I already compared it with the black and white photo and I already now where is that located.

This means (hopefully ) That their next release is going to be something already confirmed and not another of their excessive surprises

Looking forward to see the rest..... But wait!! I don´t even have the Acro

Thanks for the confirmation.  I hope they make a living one someday.

As for surprises...  I still want their Allosaurus!

[Saurox]

I'm looking forward to their king trident.

I also hope they perhaps do something similar to the king rex/ fallen queen diorama with an Allosaurus and stegosaurus.
