QuoteBy the way we know you guys love Ceratopsids as much as the Theropods, the good news is that we have figured out a way to allow you to collect many ceratopsian species in 1:35 scale (Protoceratops will be tiny!) without spending too much money (no it won't be the one body with lots of exchangeable heads thing). We will launch this project in 2016, so there will be lots of things to look forward to :)

QuoteRebor: No actually because we have future plans for collectors who prefer scientific accurate dinosaurs :) We do care about both groups, we just don't like being forced by anyone.
See?


FB User 1: Will those Ceratopsians have bodys?
Rebor: they are fridge magnets from a new line.


FB User 2: By the way... Are these really magnets? I will build a magnetic place for them. Magic!!! Haha!
Rebor: Yes they are fridge magnets, they are high quality, super detailed, well painted and they are going to be cheap ;)
FB User 2: Hooraaaay! And when will they be available? Looks amazing i love that stuff!!!
Rebor: In summer :) By the way they are also in 1:35 scale


FB User 3: Cool!!! Al coming this year??
Rebor: Three in a pack! That Protoceratops will be smaller than your thumb nail :)

I almost wonder if they are joking...you can never quite tell with Rebor.

Erwinonychus

Hopefully they release the heads at the same moment as king trident. Together with the fallen queen u can make a great ceratops diorama

Blade-of-the-Moon

I keep thinking King Trident is a mosasaur.. lol Sorry, just ignore me.

Fluffysaurus

My Fluffy is red.
My beaky is green.
I am the cutest Fluffysaurus you have ever seen!

Megalosaurus

I love them.

I'd like to decapite some ceratopsian figures, paste a metal ring on its necks and start the head swapping game.  :))

You know, if they follow through with this 1/35 ceratopsian head project and make lots and lots of different ones, it would be a real coup for hobbyists who like customizing. You would just need to find (or make) a couple of different size cheap 1/35 bodies of ceratopsians and then start grafting the heads onto them in order to create a whole herd of different, weird looking ceratopsians. With much better than your average heads ...

I'd prefer to finally see a full body ceratopsian (alive and explicitly sculpted) and normally I wouldn't buy any fridge magnets, but I like the head sculpts and .....

..... it could be a wonderful set-up of the ceratopsian group!
Imagine this series expanded with the heads of Einiosaurus, Diabloceratops, Centrosaurus, Chasmosaurus, Pentaceratops, Psittacosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus and so forth
..... I would like that :).

They could just release a generic, head-less ceratopsian body plan with corresponding magnets. Issue solved.

I'm not too keen on the magnet idea but I love those head sculpts!  What I really want is FULL 1:35 figures of each species represented here!

As for the magnets, I will probably put them on some sort of display like one would find in a history museum.  Rebor said they would be affordable....  But please REBOR, I REPEAT: FULL 1:35!!!!!

As nice as they look, I truly have no interest in fridge magnets. I give them credit for trying new things, but this just isn't my cup of tea. Not to mention that I wouldn't be able to display it on my shelf.

Takama

I really think this company does not care about what they make.   I want full sculpts of Dinosaurs not just the heads.      This tells me that they have no interest in doing a variety of species and they just treated those of us who like diversity as an after thoght. I wanted a full sized Kosmoceratops. and a Styrachosaurus. Not these blasted magnets.

I really want to like this companey. but its things like this that turn my off.

I agree, but I think in recent weeks Rebor has made it clear they are not a company who likes to play by the books or do what we think they are going to do. They are sort of the Donald Trumps of the dinosaur replica world, if you will. I'm not trying to be insulting to them, I'm merely saying they are making the things they want to make, and we can either take it or leave it. I'm really hoping they get back to more "traditional" releases, though as the Acro was the last 1/35 living dinosaur they did and that was already nearly half a year ago.

Kovu

So... um... unpopular opinion time...

I like them. They're quirky and can totally see them on an office filing cabinet. Depending on their price, I may pick a few up. Especially if an Einiosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus or Nasutoceratops is thrown into the mix.

Arul

Honestly i love it. Very good present for kids :) #satisfyingbothside

Someone here said that REBOR announced a Carnotaurus for september, but I remember that the link provided did redirect to some Facebook post where they were just inciting their fans against the haters, so I don't know.

Rebor announced a Carnotaurus for September in one of the comments on that post.

Still waiting for allosaurus.... "sigh."

I wonder if they replaced Allosaurus with Carnotaurus.

Fluffysaurus

As long as it spells dinosaur, Allosaurus, Carnotaurus. I must say i love carnotaurus, wonder if it is the word Taurus or the two horns on its head  >:D hooray for Taurus!  :P
