..after some little trouble with chinese postal service, the Dinostar Tapejara 






/

:)

By the way the figures of Dinostar that I have (tapejara, psittacosaurus and in much smaller measure smilodon) seem to be made by printers of three dimensions, I say it by the envelope in which the figures are packaged.

In Spain we have no problems with the postage of China. Exchange if you do not buy on Amazon or eBay, there are problems in my case with products from USA, Japan or Brazil. A postal official told me that those products that come from these nations requires a money rate and I know from bitter experience with a Favorite Dinosaurs

It doesn't seem to me that Dinostar Tapejara could be 3D printed: it's a regular PVC figure.
A 23cm figure should be much more expensive if 3D printed.

My last 4 orders from China to Italy took more than a month; I always tracked them down and every time the problem was about chinese postal service  that's extremely slow  :-\

For me because of Favorite dinosaurs coming from the US made me pay for two packages as much or more than the cost of the original figures. We have that problem. So from now on I will buy the products from USA or Japan by sending eBay or Amazon.  :(

My Tapejara is currently in transit from China to the UK.  It will be interesting to see how long it takes....

You've added some seriously wonderful pieces to your collection sir! It always continues to impress me when I see your new postings! Lovely stuff! I'm eager to see your next acquisitions! :)
I'm seeking Orsenigo and other interesting vintage dinosaurs. Contact me if you can help with my search!

Dinostar may have been alluding that their prototype was 3D printed, rather than the production models.

Yes, it's highly possible.
A lot of prototypes are 3D printed nowadays.

Mine took 8 days to Germany, but it came from Hong Kong, which to me still isn't really China.

Acro-man's package was posted last Monday and reached me today, so under a week from Beijing.  He sends them express.
