Schleich - new for 2016

[Viking Spawn]

Meh.  Schleich has done worse and better.  I'll reserve my final judgement after I see one in person.

[sauroid]

with Schleich, what you see is what you get lol

[Shonisaurus]

The Schleich Dilophosaurus is horrible, and that figure would resemble the great Dilophosaurus Papo.

Then the representatives of the company Schleich insult to the people of the forum saying that their products are better than those of Papo.

What shamelessness Schleich. Worst may not be disappointing.

[CityRaptor]

Wait, Schleich came here to insult us and Papo?

[Shonisaurus]

Wait, Schleich came here to insult us and Papo?

As discussed in messages file forum there where they say they are better than Papo, that's what I understood.

On the other hand advance that cause the same disappointment to collectors of dinosaurs and the Barapasaurus Herrerasaurus Schleich. I'm almost sure of it. In the only prehistoric animal Schleich in the hopes that I have it is in the dunkleosteus.

[Libraraptor]

But now I´ve heard of and seen pictures of their Barapasaurus. Surprising species choice indeed, yet the translation as a figure is, well, not that good really. I´d like to see it in person before I finally make up my mind.

[SpartanSquat]

Looks very influenced by dragons

[terrorchicken]

and their dragons are just as ugly so it will fit riiight in. 

[Jetoar]

I think thta Schleich has a style that other companies dont have. However it would be a starnge replica of this species, but it looks as other scheleich figure. This is the signature of Schleich  .

[Libraraptor]

Somewhere in the management level at Schleich, it seems there are people sitting together, asking each other what to do next in order to annoy collectors and dino toy lovers. I had contact to one of their press officers. After some "Thanks for your interest in our products" - blahblah I wrote him to at  least neglect their obvious fake reviews on amazon. From then on he did not answer anymore. So embarrassing.
I´ll forever likee their mini dinos and their Ursaurier, the second Apat and  the Pentaceratops.
But given their  premediated arrogance, their aggressive marketing and due to all their ugly, ugly stuff I will keep on disliking the company itself.

Those fake reviews are obviously not from Schleich themselves as those reviewers also made other reviews. So one can assume that they are not Schleich workers  but rather paid by Schleich to make those reviews. Some sort of review-mercenaries, if you will.  Of course that does not really make a difference regarding the fact that they are fake.

Speaking of fake reviews:

Note how those scenery packs all got reviewed by the same person with exactly the same words.

And the language of these reviews is very artificial and overblown. No "normal" reviewer would choose words like these. Cheesy.

[CityRaptor]

That as well.
Reporting all of those fake reviews would probably take forever and would be pointless in the end as Amazon would not remove them anyways.

Needless to say the negative Dilophosaurus review I left also got downvoted.

[AcroSauroTaurus]

In my opinion the Barapasaurus isn't that bad. I mean the tail position is disappointing, but if I do get it, it will only be because it is a Barapasaurus.

[Kayakasaurus]

Judging by the head, it looks like one of Schleichs digitally sculpted ones.

I agree with you. I also will buy because there is no other on the market. Anyway I see not spectacular. Herrerasaurus think the same thing. The two will be a disappointment to them and even physical by photos.

Certainly in a store in my town I have seen the Dilophosaurus and sincerely as they say "a chestnut". Moreover the dimetrodon Schleich is a bad copy of Papo.

Except dunkleosteus I certainly hope that does not disappoint and perhaps stegosaurus volcano diorama (copy in your pose to some extent to kentrosaurus) is unfortunately another lost year for Schleich.

Yeah, one video showed how schleich models are modelled.

Exactly, and there may not be another Barapasaurus figure made anytime soon... so for people wanting a figure of an early sauropod, this is their chance. Unless CollectA surprises us next year...

Forum members have displayed on the facebook page everythingdinosaurs the dunkleosteus Schleich.

It does not seem bad figure but looks a little weird ... it seems as if regarding unfinished painting. Moreover, the shell is silver.
