Robin - Goodfellow's Collection ( Collection "Tour" from page 113 )

[RobinGoodfellow]

Despite I'm not a JP/JW collector, there are some interesting species in the new Mattel line; so, why not.... ? 

Metriacanthosaurus

Yeah, I've recently started collecting dinosaur toys as well. What are your thoughts on the Metriacanthosaurus? I'm on the fence with that one.

..well, weeks ago I was at a local market and I saw the new Jurassic World line: relatively cheap price, unusual species, decent sculpt; so I gave them a chance.. 
Mosasaurus, Carnotaurus, Baryonyx and Stygimoloch are ok.
Probably the Metriacanthosaurus is the weakest one 
I really don't like its permanently opened mouth (I fixed it with some tape during the shoot ).
I bought it mostly because it's a unusual species..   
I tried but JW toys definitively aren't my cup of tea... 
Sorry...

Hahaha, I guess it was worth a shot 
I also agree with the dinosaurs that you've mentioned. I picked them all up (I just got 'Stiggy' by Amazon mail). I also like the Stegosaurus quite a bit. The Triceratops is okay as it seems true to film. The T-rexes are pretty cool but the seam lines are really out of control (but adds to playability, I suppose).
I was thinking of getting them professionally repainted to look something like this:

Yeah, the hunch back pose of the Metri is a turn off for me

By the way Robin I see that Papo's compsognathus that shows is tilted as if it had more legs, it seems as if it had a manufacturing error. It does not have the characteristic tripod posture that characterizes the figure.

...ok, I'll show you the magician's trick.. 
( because real dinosaurs didn't walk like tripods  )

DinostoreUs de Favorite is a sculptural ensemble of great relief Robin. On the other hand the raptor dinosaurs of The Beast of the Mesozoic and I have no words to describe these paleoartísticas beauties, I think it's all said about it.

On the other hand, thank you for showing me the reality of the compsognathus that was standing on two legs. A photoshop, honestly gave the hit.

I thought that the compsognathus was entrusted by manufacturing error.    Thanks for your photos Robin.

Collecta 2018 Estemmenosuchus :




In the past I read a lot of DTF members hoping that a figure could be made in PVC form instead of resin.
And every time I replied that I was very happy that a certain model was resin and NOT pvc.


That's a proof about my thoughts: Collecta PVC Estemmenosuchus    VS Sean Cooper resin Estemmenosuchus 


The difference about micro-details is enormous..

Hi Robin.

Could you put the name of the dino above every one of those  BOTM ?
I think maybe I'll get one ( and only one ! ) -
That could sure help me to decide which.

Thanks

Sorry to have bothered you Robin.

I descovered I can get a much comprehansive review on either of those sites, and more :

- Dan's Dinosaurs
- Creative beasts
- Bigbadtoystore
- Everythingdinosaur

And it's all just one click away on Google ... 

And I think I know which one is my favorite -
Don't see the reason to get more than one -
I can hardly tell the difference anyway -
so, favorite color it is ...

[RobinGoodfellow]

Sorry to have bothered you Robin.

You didn't bothered me at all.
But I'm trying to write every info into all my posts (with links) and doing a complete reference album on Flickr and it's frustrating when people ask me for easy infos instead of just following a link clearly posted at the end of the thread..

Best Regards

[BrontoScorpio]

I know all about your flicker album -
just didn't know/remember they have text.

I recognize because fortunately I also have them that the miniature figures of prehistoric marine animals of Collecta are very well finished and the same can be said of Safari.

I am pleasantly surprised how you place these miniatures with those gadgets that give a more realistic image of those prehistoric figures of the sea.

Excellent use of the BotM Desert accessory pack with the CollectA Prehistoric Marine tube.
