Saurox

Wonderland models is a great shop and well worth a visit if you are in Edinburgh! I have found their mail order service to be good too!

It's a really nice variation to have in my collection, especially being a big fan of the cassowary in general.

Fellow Canadians: the green Velociraptor and the Oviraptor/T. rex set are in stock at Mastermind Toys outlets. Didn't buy either of them myself.

Nice comparison shot. Where did you get the repaint Ovi?

EmperorDinobot

Oh? I was going to ask that! Apparently it's part of a 2 pack with a T.rex.

Bigger than a camarasaurus,
and with a bite more stronger that the T-Rex bite,
Ticamasaurus is certainly the king of the Jurassic period.

With Balaur feet, dromaeosaurus bite, microraptor wings, and a terrible poison, the Deinoraptor Dromaeonychus is a lethal enemy for the most ferocious hybrid too.

That's not correct.

The "rainbow" standing Rex comes with a "rainbow" velociraptor:

The repainted Oviraptor comes with a usual brown standing Rex:

Ops! Sorry

I'm a big fan of the rainbow colored ones! I wish I had them!

NEW 2017 Papo Dinos confirmed!!! They look so good, i cant believe it. The paintjob.








Silvanusaurus

The theropods look perfect Papo to me, no dissapointments there.

I agree just what you would hope for and expect from this company.

The Cryo is awful, but the rest look ok. I wish the Acro and Cerato weren't so similar in pose tho.

suspsy

I really don't get why Papo chose to use the exact same colour scheme for the Afro as they did for the repaint rexes.

To my eye those figures look like they are based on the same armature hence the very similar pose.

Flaffy

I will wait for the final products to make my final judgement.
The colour schemes may look good on the prototype, but they might look average-bad in the final product.

Dilopho

Beautiful! All of them!  :o

Peculiar business/aesthetic decision. It is the same color, but it blends better on the Acro.

The Papo Acro and Cerato look better than the REBOR versions (although REBOR offers some truly nice diorama extensions on those models). I think REBOR might be a bit jealous as evidenced by their FB posts. They were inspired by Papo to form REBOR, mostly because Papo was taking their sweet time to release models like Acro and Cerato. The REBOR versions look great but are excessively textured (over textured) and it takes away from the realism and natural quality of the models. Hopefully, REBOR doesn't go overboard with the scales and scutes on their 2017 herbivores; herbivores generally look more elegant with less clutter.
