Poundland/Funtastic Play & Learn dinosaurs

I recently went into a branch of Poundland, as I often do in my quest for toys.

I was surprised to discover, among the usual junk, these rather nifty dinos.

Poundland has relased them under their own Play & Learn brand; they are clearly a rip-off of something more expensive, but for £1 each I cannot fault them.

(Please excuse the rough and ready nature of these images, I think I chose a poor light source. Dinofroz figure for scale)

Originals would be

Second pic: Papo/Collecta Hybrid Spinosaurus, REBOR Yutyrannus, Schleich Pentaceratops
Third pic: Papo Allosaurus
Fourth pic: Schleich Pentaceratops
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

Thanks CityRaptor, I'd only managed to identify the Schleich-inspired Pentaceratops.

they moved the eyes of the Papo Allo to the ear part *shudder*
"you know you have a lot of prehistoric figures if you have at least twenty items per page of the prehistoric/dinosaur section on ebay." - anon.

Run!

Nanuqsaurus


Silvanusaurus

I also saw these in poundland recently, I couldnt bring myself to buy one, but the yutyranus might be useful as the basis for a custom at some point down the line.
