I'm making a company! My figures will be 1:40 scale even small dinosaurs! We are starting with Eustreptospondylus, a megalosaurid from Oxford. Please remember I only starting 1 hour ago as of posting this! But the first 5 people who reply to this thread will get their suggestion for a figure on the list! When my line is in production I will send it to you personally either painted or unpainted. Every figure will come with a detachable base and food :) Hope you enjoy my figures when they are released! Eustreptospondylus will be June 2016 at the latest.

Torvosaurus please :D Wait are these going to be in resin or plastic?

PaleoMatt

Votes closed!! Thank you for everyone who chose the first 5 models! Also I don't know whether to do resin or plastic just yet, which one is better for starters? I'm glad to see such excellent model choices and everyone who requested one will be credited on the belly of the product by there username :)


PaleoMatt

Quick thing. Uroplatus what species of Basilosaurus do you want? And pylraster which Torvosaurus species??

Brachiosaurus


Uroplatus

B. cetoides or B. isis makes most sence i guess...

Resin is going to be much easier for a small startup company. Injected plastic requires some serious industrial machinery (it's expensive to make cheap toys!). Have you done much research into molding and casting yet?

I plan on researching into molding and casting tomorrow and for the rest of the week. Also I'm going to ask some forum users who are making models.
