Rebor: 1/6 Scale Dimorphodon Male and Female: "Punch" and "Judy"

[Arul]

The names are pretty clever. How many non Brits know who Punch and Judy are?

I dont know...then what is the meaning of the name ?

[Viking Spawn]

I may not be British, but the name given to them is very clever! 

The paintwork is gorgeous!  These will be another instant purchase once released! 

And these pics are also available on their Instagram too!

These are Punch and Judy.



It's traditionally performed at the seaside for children. It's pretty violent actually.

The male dimorphodon is a beauty. Moreover it will be revealed tomorrow as the facebook page of the dimorphodon Rebor female.

Perhaps these figures the best that the company collecting Rebor been made.

I'm a big fan of Doug Watson but in my humble opinion this figure is more detailed than the dimorphodon Safari. I hope not to offend anyone.

I HATE Punch, the puppet. HATE HIM. HATE HATE HATE HATE. He's terrified me since I was a kid.
....
.."THAT'S THE WAY TO DO IT!!!" Shut, up Punch!

[Lanthanotus]

They look like "Kasperl und Gretel", tho Kasperl usually just punches the crocodile to defend Gretel.... my Dimorphos will be renamed then, I hate puppets

I do, I do!  then again I'm 40 and remember seeing the puppet shows when I was a kid.

They don't do much for me. I dunno, maybe it's the dull colouration. They look nice but I kinda feel like this is a missed opportunity. They could have used it to show some sexual dimorphism. But the sculpts are near indistinguishable from each other.

Rebor  does not give a hoot anymore  . They released a photo of there next 1:6 model and guess  what?  It's a unfeatherd https://m.facebook.com/reborstudio/photos/a.555150811278598.1073741827.555146104612402/789136674546676/?type=3&source=48

To my knowledge, (proto)feathers are possible on Compsognathus (IF that profile shows a Compso anyway) but not evidenced. While there are some close related featheres species at least one is has none (Juravenator).

They could have used it to show some sexual dimorphism. But the sculpts are near indistinguishable from each other.

True, both animals look quite the same besides some minor changes of colorization (but who's to say they weren't like this in real... /shrug), in my opinion they still make a nice diorama due to their different stance in rest and fly "mode" and they are undoubtly the most detailed pterosaur models out there to date if I didn't miss a thing.

My first thought was "yuck, more Jurassic Park pandering". But it's unfair to judge from just a silhouette.

I have to say I'm disappointed. If they had kept on with the trend they started with the Acrocanthosaurus I would have been all over their new releases.

You can tell it's unfeathered from just looking at the silhouette ? Go back and look at the Dimorphodon's silhouette, you won't be able to distinguish feathers on that either. You're just making an assumption.
But with that being said if it does turn out to be feathered, it'll probably "under-feathered".

EDIT : Looks like Tyrantqueen commented at the same time as I did, so my apologies for repeating what she just said, more or less.

By the way have just been published on the facebook page of photographs dimorphodon Rebor female and are spectacular.

Moreover it differs in color with respect to male dimorphodon.

They are also published the photos on the pages of facebook minizoo

Even if it is unfeathered I'll probably get it, I've always found that particular Jurassic Park design to be especially elegant.

Hear, hear. Plus, it's probably the closest we'll get to having a life-size baby compie.

[Viking Spawn]

Feathers or no feathers, to me its simply Paleo art.  And that's how I viewed them from the beginning as with most toys.  As long as they look beautiful on my shelf, I'm happy with that.  As far as scientific accuracy, if it happens, it is a plus.  Or I'll just go out and buy skeleton replicas or actual fossils themselves.

The Compie appears cool and all....  But darn it!  Where's the Allosaurus or King Trident?!  Enough of the dino babies, hatchlings, or smaller creatures, I want the BIG GUNS already!!!!   

[Halichoeres]

I really like how these two turned out. The dimorphism is understated, more like a lineated woodpecker:



less like a mandarin duck


And the proportions all look really good. Metacarpals are relatively short, as are the wings and tail. Definitely going to get both of these.

First post updated with all new info and photos.

Some updated notes:
-The rod that will hold up the female will not be clear as originally speculated. It is steel.
-The prehistoric lizard prey item is removable from the base.
-The female will be slightly smaller than the male.
-Rebor's ETA is late January, 2016.

They make a nice display. I won't be getting these since I don't collect pterosaurs. Looking forward to seeing more pictures and reviews after people get their hands on them.

Lol so they are puppets. I love the male dimorphodon maybe i will buy it, but first i have to know the size first
