Hello, CityRaptor,

the distributor from where I order the CollectA figures received his devlivery pretty late.
That's why it took so long.

Thanks for the answer!
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

I'd say that's the older version and the new one. :)

They actually make kind of a nice pair! A momma and her teenager. Looks like she's looking down and scolding him. And he's like, yeah right, whatever! LOL!

And the new Mojo Jr. Rex is not half bad. About how big is he? Would he work with the new Papo Baby Rexes?

Everything Dinosaur has now stocked most of the new Collecta 2012 releases! No sign of the plants yet, or the 1:15 scale Triceratops. Hope they'll stock these too eventually.

Missing the flora is understandable, but the big Triceratops? Not sure what's going on there, especially since I've been told to expect everything in stock in a few days. Typically CollectA is settled into the UK before the US.

Maybe ED doesn't stock 1:15 scale figures, they don't have the big Collecta Rex either.

Or the T. rex, unfortunately. But I've ordered me a Deinocheirus.

That new Schleich Brachio has a neck posture suspiciously similar to the new Carnegie Brachio....or am I just looking too deeply into this? XD

Blade-of-the-Moon

I think both companies are just attempting a more modern neck posture.. ;)

Roselaar

ED now also has the Collecta plants and T-Rex stocked. But still no sign of the big Trike. Guess I'll have to inquire about that one.

Prehistoric Mammal Skull Toob!?!?!? I was just at Michaels this month, and didn't see this(or know to look for it)...now I MUST return! Those are awesome! I did buy a toob of historical buildings (Pyramids, temples, etc) for dioramas with Godzilla and etc. I'll be stalking this thread, hoping to see news on new Imaginext Dino Rider figures!

Funny how both companies reduced the size of them. Cost cutting measure perhaps?

Michaels is usually pretty slow with the new toobs, especially the odd, prehistoric ones (I've never seen the dino skulls, the prehistoric mammals, the prehistoric sharks or the prehistoric crocs at a Michaels for example).

Safari also admitted that the size reduction in their Brachio was to save money as well.

sauroid

are they cheaper than their bigger version?

Schleich? Not in case of the ones with the articulated jaws...
