In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Sometimes I draw pictures

The big question is: Will there be figures?

CityRaptor

This is a good question, yes.

Blue Spino and Red Tyranno....Hmmm.
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

I don't think I will ever get over how funny the Spinosaurus now looks after the new discoveries, it really does scream giant land croc.

On Facebook I found some pictures of the Dino Expo 2016 opening (today, March 8 ) from a japan collector.
Talking about collectibles, there are picts about the Kaiyodo models we have already seen on the Forum.
But there are also pictures about 2 Kanna Dinosaur Center figures, exclusive for the 2016 Expo.
I think they are resin but I don't know because of the japanese language.....

They look like Favorite Ltd's statues. If they get released at all, it would be in the higher price range.

Probably you are right, I don't know.
I bought all the Kanna Dinosaur Center line of figures.
These two figures are in the same packaging like the rest of the line so I think they are on sale yet..
The japanese language doesn't help to find out more.  :-[

CityRaptor

I kinda fail to see why it is called "Dinosaur Model Skeleton Series" when the figures are in the flesh.

Haha, someone is not sure about what to make out of Spino's new look.

So they form a Diorama. I wondered if they could do that, given their bases.
