I held the Dimetrodon in my hands yesterday. It was not as bad as I thought. If it had a neck, it even would make a pretty good figure.

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


I think it looks great. Especially because it could've been worse... much worse.

not bad, I like the colors... well maybe not the shiny silver, should have just been gray.

I'm really liking that rusty colour on the body, it's very understated coming from Schleich. It'll be interesting to see how the articulated jaw works out on a fish...

I agree with you Libraraptor. Dimetrodon I bought yesterday and I can assure that although it is not a work of art is not a bad figure. Besides that has five toes on all four feet.

I like the Dunkleosteus more than I thought I would. The Herrerasaurus... less so. The Barapasaurus is still only good for being a Barapasaurus, otherwise it's not a great figure.

AcroSauroTaurus

The Barapasaurus doesn't look too bad.

It's another Collecta Shunosaurus situation...ugly head, great body!

Everything_Dinosaur

Very short video clip from Everything Dinosaur, confirming that the Schleich Dunkleosteus does indeed have an articulated lower jaw (or should that be shears)?

It seems pretty figure, but the video is very short.

The Dunkleosteus has an articulated jaw? :o That will make for some good dioramas! ;) I'm definitely getting that figure now!

That "Herrerasaurus" reminds me of the "raptor" on the left in this picture



Please avoid saying anything about the feathernazis and stuff. I posted this picture just for comparison

sauroid

that Herrerasaurus looks sloppy all over.

Ah, good old "Schleich Quality"!
Color-wise it seems to take inspiration from this model:
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

Pachyrhinosaurus

I might buy that one just to paint it like the one from Jurassic Park:

Among others. It is part of a wandering exhibition about Argentinian Dinosaurs, touring several museums world wide.

Found their website:
http://www.expodinos-cubo.com/

It is either based on the Herrerasaurus or the "Frenguellisaurus" of that exhibition.
