Well I find the set of pteranodon very beautiful together with geosternbergia. What we would have to guess is the identity of the fish that both are disputing, for a paleoictólogo would be bread eaten metaphorically speaking to know the identity of this prehistoric animal, but we do not yet have unfortunately detailed photos of such figures.

They remind me of the revelation of the figures to the company Rebor.

Since nobody has posted it yet, the close-up of the Pteranodon prototype:



As much as I like fish, it's harder to get excited about them when they're molded into another animal's jaws. Let alone two!

Hey they have two different cress. Didn't  one of the Pteranodon species become Geosternbergia (one on the right)? So is this a diorama of Pteranodon and Geosternbergia fighting over a fish? Or am I going crazy? Lol
They lived at the same place at the same time so it makes sense.

I didn't notice the different crests, that's interesting. I was under the impression that the stratigraphy suggested that P. sternbergi was earlier than P. longiceps with little or no overlap. Also, P. sternbergi averaged quite a bit larger than P. longiceps, whereas the reverse appears to be true in this sculpt.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

It looks like the Geosternbergia(Thats what I call P. sternbergi) is a little bit further back than the Pteranodon, so that might explain the smaller size. Also the wings aren't as outstretched as the Pteranodons, so it might look smaller in that regard as well.

I'd have to agree--it's one thing to have the Takara Spinosaurus-with-Mawsonia, or the old Favorite Spinosaurus-with-gar...but this one looks like it's going to be kind of generic, and lost among the two pterosaurs. Too bad.

Here's a clearer look at the Spinosaurus VS Sarcosuchus piece.

Shonisaurus

Do these pieces seem to be made of one piece or is it a mere figuration? We hope to have new news on these sets. On the other hand if they are of the same size that dinosaurs of Kaiyodo will be dinosaurs affordable.

The sculptures are artistic from my point of view.

It's hard to imagine they could make most of these from a single mold. It seems like it would be easier to make a few pieces and glue them. Nevertheless, I'm sure they'll be sold as a single piece, and probably less than 1000 yen apiece.

Protoceratops VS Velociraptor. I was curious about this one, but it looks like the 'raptor's wings are all wrong. Alas!

Shonisaurus

I sincerely would like another type of protoceratops does not appear to me very finished although it is necessary to recognize that this photograph although real is by now speculative of what will be the set of dinosaurs with painting included. You can not judge the figures because they are not finished are mere unfinished prototypes.

Halichoeres

That is a bummer about the hands. This is the only set I was potentially interested in, but I'll probably skip it. Bring on new Prehistoric Life figures!

These miniatures look good even if their figures are blurred. I honestly am a fan of Favorite dinosaurs without exception.  :P

 :)  Does anyone know if you can get the newer Favorite figures online, somewhere besides E-Bay?

You can order a member of the forum is called Brett. He is dedicated to commercializing figures of dinosaurs and prehistoric animals apart from other toy products belonging to Japan and Asian countries. It will come out cheaper than eBay from my humble opinion.  ^-^

:) Thanks!

Brett is not American like you and you can safely buy the figures without any problems with customs. You can send them both him Brett from the US (your nation) and a distributor from Japan. I recommend that these figures are in charge through USPD postcards and you will arrive in no time. I wish you luck.  :)

Better go with PRK. No flaps and your eye will heal as a whole.

Back to topic, I hope this sells like crazy, so Favorite continue to produce new dioramas next year.
Sobreviviendo a la extinción!!!

Shonisaurus

What we do not know yet if these minifigures will be of a single piece or will consist of base like many figures of Favorite. Anyway, the figures are precious.

I do not think they are removable like the  Kaiyodo dinotales figures.
