Geoworld Jurassic Hunters and Jurassic Action

[Takama]

The Jurrasic hunters series reminds me of CollectA, only they come with something more(Cards)

[Brontozaurus]

I will admit that I'm tempted by some of the giant Jurassic Action figures. They might not be amazingly accurate, but the Stegosaurus looks damn nice.

This is the smaller Jurassic Hunter version of Carnotaurus
Trying to post the rest but there are a lot of them.

Some of those newer ones, like the Therizinosaurus and Troodon, actually look very nice.  But others are blatant rip-offs, especially of CollectA (Agustinia and Jobaria especially)!

I saw these for the first time at a local grocery store of all places. They had the large Tyrannosaurus skeleton (1:10 scale) and I was tempted to buy it until I saw the $200 price tag!

Does anyone else think some of the "Jurassic Action" figures look suspiciously like the old JP ones?

They do. I actually saw the "Jurassic Action" Tyrannosaurus in the same grocery store and almost bought it but then I changed my mind and decided I would rather spend that money on a JP Tyrannosaurus.

[Bokisaurus]

Wow, I like the figures. They  are very distinctive and they have some interesting color and paint schemes
I would like to get those sauropods and ceratopsians.
Where do you/can you find these anyway? I have never seen them for sale anywhere (ebay included), not even the Toys R Us store here.

[Jetoar]

I would like to see these figures in spanish Toys R Us. Only I have found the skeletons in the museums but I havent been seen the figures  .

After I've been looking for them everywhere I give up.
Does anyone have an idea where I could get hold of the Guanlong or Caudipteryx?

You're in Europe aren't you? If so Amazon.it has them (just one vendor in Turin, Italy). I just ordered a few of the nicer ones but they're selling very fast and I noticed today that the prices have gone up. I think there's a Caudipteryx left but I'm afraid the last Guanlong went. In the US they're also on Amazon but no shipping to Europe 

[Ichthyosaur]

In the US they're also on Amazon

Thanks! Just ordered the Caudipteryx and Eustreptospondylus. 

[Blackdanter]

So, wifey bought me these as an early Christmas present. They came from Amazon.it and shipped therefore from Italy. I must say that I rather like them. They are somewhat better than the first issues of Collecta figures and show some promise for future releases and It's always good to support European toy endeavours 

They are made of soft plastic and the actual sculpts are pretty good in the batch I chose. I really didn't much like the look of most of the Sauropods and Ceratopsians so skipped most of them. They're also much larger than expected, most are about 7" in length, 5" in height.

My biggest gripe with these is with the paint application. Although overall good enough, the yellow eyes and the over painting of the yellow eyes is an annoyance and doesn't do the figures any favours. Also there are some annoying oversplashes and smudges. On top of that, the paint seems very prone to rubbing, much like early Bullyland figures.

I have definate favourites, but that's for me to know. There is also a total dud of a figure in this batch which is a shame but, well, you can't have it all ways can you 

Here you go then, Geoworld Jurassic Hunters - 1st Expedition (not sure exactly how all of these fit into that title!)

Amargasaurus



Baryonyx

Any idea how I could get this one?

Guanlong

There were 2 available on Amazon.it here when I bought mine:

http://www.amazon.it/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?__mk_it_IT=%C5M%C5Z%D5%D1&url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=jurassic+hunters&x=0&y=0#

It's not listed now and wasn't when I went back to get the hyperlink for you after seeing your first request for it. There were a few figures on Amazon US but no postage to Europe. If I see it any place else I'll PM you a link. At the moment these do seem to have very limited availability which is a shame as a handful are really nice figures.

My Italian is crap (I really struggle with that language) so it was a relief not to have to go into any dialogue with the seller but you could try asking them I guess. Maybe one of our Italian members could help you out 

[Mauro "Raptor86"]

If someone has troubles with Italian language, please fell free to ask!

[brontodocus]

Yay, congrats, John! Looking better than on the catalogue pictures, actually. Although I'll probably not hunt for all of them I want at least the Guanlong and Caudipteryx! Thinking of it, the Protoceratops is quite nice, too.

[Jetoar]

Congratulations again for your new acquisitions. I think that the figures are cool in general but  the Giganotosaurus are very strange but the Caudipteryx and Guanlong are cool........... Guanlong are very cool, I want it  !

[Ichthyosaur]

Congrats Blackdanter! Love the Guanlong.  Wish they'd get that one in stock on Amazon.US.  I received the Jurassic Action junior T-Rex today....

[Bokisaurus]

Very nice collection, I like them a lot... something different with some unique species for a change.
I wish the US Amazon would stock some of the cool ones like Guanlong, Amaraga, Ourano, etc.
I just ordered some, can't wait to see them in person.

[Jetoar]

Oh interesting figures. I would like to see jurassic action figures in my hands  .
