Great Custom work have you tried painting the Matchbox?  Here are the Schliech Apatosaurus.

How tiny are they? Sounds like a challenge.  ;D

>:D Very! Here is a picture to give an idea just how small these guys are. The dimetrodon is a Kaiyodo.

Someone find me one of those and I shall rise to the challenge.  >:D ;D ...And possibly kill off my eyesight at last.

Sad to say they failed to pass new testing standards and they are extinct in the US.

I always thought the Older Bullyland looked like the Anchisaurus for When Dinosaurs Roamed.  The new one make a great Melanosaurus.  The concensus seems to be going that Prosauropod is only valid for plateosaurid maybe, everything else is lumped as sauropodomorphs.

Oh yes, I have that one aswell. It is a Game Piece in "Die Schlacht der Dinosaurier" ( "The Battle of the Dinosaurs" ). There are 4 in one Game, 1 per Army. The slowest, but also physically strongest figure in the Game.
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

::) Hmm, I don't think I have seen or heard about this game set. Nice figures, I'm assuming they are small?

amargasaurus cazaui

I hoped i might ask, the dinosaur I have copied and will post, who makes it and is it still possible to obtain the replica? Thanks in advance for your time and , thanks for sharing such an incredible sauropod wealth.

Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

If it's the one I think you're referring to, then that is the painted Invicta Diplodocus. It won't be readily available anywhere, sadly. Your best option would be to scour eBay (and/or save the search) for one someone has decided to part with.

Yes that makes sense, as I dont own any of the invictas yet. It is a gorgeous piece and you should be proud of your collection, thanks for sharing.

1/72 scale for the men.  The dinosaurs are mixed scaled.   Fun concept very popular with my students at the Smithsonian Summer camp.  Not real educational as the game is a dice fest.

That is indeed the painted Invicta Diplo, real beauty but hard to find.

Here is the Safari Brachio joining the herd ;D

How he compares with the other Safari figures
