David Silvas New Kickstarter: Articulated Dinosaur TOYS

[stargatedalek]

Shipping costs are still to high for me. $80CDN is just to much to pay for a single action figure, that's the kinda price I can pay for a whole order of non-articulated figurines, or even a modest sized unfinished model kit.

That's unfortunate, but isn't the base international shipping fee 22USD/33CDN (previously 25)?

Plus $35USD for a figure, which as actually a little under $75CDN total after shipping now that I do the math in detail, (and also assuming USPS and Canada Post don't tack on some extra fees).

A shame it's too expensive for you (and possibly others as well), and in general. I didn't know how crazy conversion rates could get. Kind of sad neighboring countries have to have the same shipping as something potentially overseas. I don't know much about how rate and exchange and all that though to know why this is the way it is. Have you been able to get anything at all earlier? I wonder if anyone could be willing to help get you one, at the very least.

I know I'd still like to order the remaining accessory packs (forest and wetlands), I've yet to order, if I can use them for future figures from this line (Ceratopsians, etc), or possibly other unrelated figures, as well as for the exclusive critters that come with them. I'd also like at least one of the nestling packs (particularly the amber/striped nestling set I had to drop from my survey before lockdown at the last minute), but I want to prioritize picking up some Safari LTD figures first when there's money again, and possibly another non-dinosaur action figure related to my other interests before hand, assuming I could afford it.

[Halichoeres]

For what it's worth, I have already ordered several figures for international users, and it isn't much trouble to add a few more.

[stargatedalek]

Thanks for the kind offer, I may well take you up on it depending on when they ship out.

As someone in the United Kingdom I have found that postage rates have got terribly expensive in the last few years prohibitively so in some cases.

Update #60: Fine Cuts and Ceratopsian tease.

I think we should create a new topic for BotM ceratopsian 2017.

[Derek.McManus]

Those illustrations look nice, and a separate topic is an excellent idea!

[Silvanusaurus]

I'm so glad the next series will be Ceratopsians, it means i wont have to worry about spending any money on it. 

[Roselaar]

Quite a tease! I very much hope it will happen. But for now, bring on the Raptors!

Quite the opposite for me, now I'm worried...

Opposite for me too, I was thinking in getting one of the raptors now that they are available again but I think I better save for the horned beasts!

[terrorchicken]

I know, Id like another raptor, but I like ceratopsians too & I want one to go with my velociraptor!
were there any other ceratopsians that were around the same time as velociraptor other than protoceratops?

[Halichoeres]

Getting hyped about the ceratopsians.

I think Bagaceratops, Gobiceratops, and Microceratus were roughly coeval, but I'm not sure they would be included in the next set. Maybe Bagaceratops.

[Faelrin]

He did mention 1/6 scale for protoceratopsids, and specifically Protoceratops several times in FB update comments and such, in case anyone has been wondering about that one. There has been some demand for that one, that I have seen, mostly in part because people have ordered the Velociraptor, and want to recreate the fighting dinosaurs scene, etc. Honestly add me to the list of those that want Protoceratops as well.

I really am going to be excited for the ceratopsians line. I cannot wait to see what species have been picked to be made. I'd really like at the very least Styracosaurus, Triceratops, and Protoceratops, though Regaliceratops, Pachyrhinosaurus, and maybe Diabloceratops and Einosaurus (with all the releases of this one lately, it's been growing on me) would also be worth a buy for me if they are made.

[Loon]

Too much, I had to buy every raptor, some twice. Ceratopsians are my favorite dinos, I'd have to buy all of them...some twice...

Damn you Silva... 

[Rathalosaurus]

Oh my gosh no!! Ceratopsians?!?! I love this already.
But how will able to get my hands on the raptors AND the ceratopsians? Damn it how I hate not having an income...

[Killekor]

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not interested to ceratopsians like the Raptors, but i will get certainly some of them (depends how much money i have, and because i will get (in future) the velociraptor)

I'm with you, I MAY get 1 or 2 depending on price ect. I was just never a big fan of Ceratopsian's.
