2012 Figures

[SBell]

I believe Melissa posted the link to that website some time ago, though I can't recall if all the same pieces were shown. I wouldn't mind seeing that Lambeosaurus as a figure.

I hope those toobs (and other figures) come out. This was not a great year for toobs.

And has anyone else seen the fossil replicas and dino-baby-eggs?  I have to say, those are not Safari's finest merchandise.

[ZoPteryx]

I want this...especially if they make them more detailed in the final product!

[Metallisuchus]

The only good Toob is the dino skulls Toob. Well, the other skull Toobs are cool too, I suppose, for what they are.

[Seijun]

I think all their prehistoric toobs are good But my favorites are the dino skulls, prehistoric mammal skulls, and prehistoric life toobs.

Check out the 'Prehistoric Sealife' toob . The Nothosaurus is extraordinaire!

[ZoPteryx]

^I agree, I think that's their best one yet!

Wow it IS exceptional. Guess I overlooked that one. But the dino skulls one is still the best! In fact, they should do another one - I'd like a Cryolophosaurus skull.

Any updates on the Kaiyodo DinoLand reissues? I haven't been too active for a while.

[Gryphoceratops]

That would be your opinion.  I personally find any of the skull/fossil tubes kind of boring.  The prehistoric sea life tube and the prehistoric croc tube are both top of the list in my book. 

[brontodocus]

Wow, if that's going to be a 2013 toob it's a must buy!

Any updates on the Kaiyodo DinoLand reissues? I haven't been too active for a while.

I recall they're scheduled for June 15th so they may appear soon.

[DinoLord]

Is it still just the Allosaurus and T. rex getting re-released?

Of course it's my opinion     
Your picks are the better of the non-skulls, I must admit. It's funny - I usually find the bones/skulls less interesting, but for some reason, I think for such a small size, they look better than the dinosaurs do.

[Gryphoceratops]

The skulls have great detail you are certainly right about that.  I just don't find them as exciting as replicas of actual animals is all.  Personal preference.

At least for the moment they are the only ones. But there's still hoping that this is just the beginning...
And there's an update: HLJ has them in stock now - I've just received a notification since I've preordered them. Be warned, though: Since they are so large, shipping might be as expensive as the figures themselves (if not more), I'll get my brown Allosaurus and brown Tyrannosaurus in one SAL parcel from Japan to Germany for ¥5,000 (I've been a long time customer at HLJ and they never overcharge on shipping costs so the parcel must definitely be between 2 and 3 Kg according to SAL rates). Still that's pretty good altogether I'd say. And now, Kaiyodo people, get to work, I want all of the others, too!   And when you're done and get bored just re-release the Aqualand series...

[Mauro "Raptor86"]

Mojo new junior t.rex

[Horridus]

The arms are still too long, but...the hands are the FACING THE RIGHT WAY!!!!11!! *faints*

[ZoPteryx]

Oh, that doesn't look too bad.

[Takama]

It seems Mojo is learning.

I admit, That thing is cute


IS the head Correct?

IT has crests

[Horridus]

It isn't, but it's more to do with how boxy it is, rather than the 'crests'/bosses.

[Metallisuchus]

This is the ONLY exception to my usual personal preference of actual animals to bones, so I do get where you're coming from.

I think Safari should put out their own brand of cereal and include one of these Toob minis in each box 

...along with facts about a particular species on the back... and artwork by DTF's talented roster...
