Got this little guy ;D


How many of the painted figures do you have?

Hmmm ::) Maybe half ? I still have a long ways to complete the painted version ;)

That Scelidosaurus makes me want all the painted ones again. But they are rare and expensive. Sigh.

That is for sure, that's why I sort of stopped chasing them. I just wait...  ;D

Very beautiful scelidosaurus... Congrats Boki!  :)

Great to know that I'm not the only Invicta fan out here! I have all of the unpainted versions and around four or five of the painted ones. I still need a base for the Troodon, though, as mine is gnawed and tatty! Anybody got one to sell, by any chance, please? Pretty please? My Troodon is near mint, except for the base... Grrrr!

As it isn't prehistoric, the Invicta blue whale will never feature on the dinotoyblog, but here's a walk-around posted on the Animal Toy Forum: http://www.animaltoyforum.com/index.php/topic,276.0.html






As we all know this figure is one of two from the set that isn't in the 1/45 scale like the others are. The description on this figure says the length was 30 metres, so if the figure was in 1/45 scale how big would it be? Im thinking somewhere around 26 inches, am i right?

Yeah, about 2 feet/60cm. Not too much longer than the Diplodocus, but considerably more massive!

These look very Invicta - like. Drawing  blueprints for pencil drawings. Who has more information? Thank you!

I've seen these before, the same seller was selling others like this a couple of months ago. I was going to go for them but they didn't take Paypal so i left off them.

Okay, so they ARE by Invicta, aren´t they? I was lucky to buy them!

Invicta Hunter

I think you were lucky to get them but i don't know if their from Invicta, my guess is if they don't have Invicta markings then their not made by Invicta but they are still really cool.

Ok, A member on another forum has posted some pics of a Safari Catalog from 1990.



Whats surprising is that if you turn to page 8



you find those.   Anyone know more about the conection between Invicta and Safari?

BTW just to show that they are from the same booklet, here is the index page

Chances are that Safari was the US Distributor of the line at some point, just as Schleich distributed the Carnegie Collection and Authentics in Germany back then.
I also spy some Chinasaurs in that catalogue.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Thanks for sharing this catalogue! It´s very interesting.

Today i got another Dimetrodon and it turned out to be a bit of a colour variant. The one on the left side is the normal colour, i thought i would put him in the same photo as a comparison.
Enjoy   :)
