colored pix of ITOY Dilophosaurus Sinensis resurrection 2016

Its ok for a Jurassic Park style figure, but has a few problems if they wanted to make it accurate.

1st problem: "Dilophosaurus sinensis" doesn't exist. Its Sinosaurus triassicus.

2: pronated wrists.

3: Crests and head are the wrong size and shape.

If they fixed those three problems it would be a good Sinosaurus figure.

Inaccuracies aside, I think this looks pretty cool. I hedged on the Ceratosaurus (already have and really like the Rebor one) but I will definitely be picking this one up. I'm a sucker for good JP replicas/inspired figures I think it fits very well with the Rebor style as well, so I will probably display them together

Not bad for a Jurassic Park Dilo, but...not really my thing.

Sometimes I have trouble resisting a toy that is labeled as one genus even though it's clearly modeled after another (like this Sinosaurus, which looks exactly like a JP Dilophosaurus as people have noted). But the price tag is going to make it a lot easier to hold off on this one.

I cant help but wonder if these products are actully safe to buy.


There made in China, yet the only way to get them is through certain stores on Ebay.   I wander if these were made out of the same material used in random knokcoff models.     

Either way, i still wonder WHY ARE THESE NOT AVLIBLE IN AMERICA?

This is actually a very good question. I usually like to sniff my toys when I first take them out of the package. I wouldn't want to place myself in any kind of danger.

the same reason/s why PNSO, and Japanese brands for that matter arent available in the usual American outlets. they have no distributors, or they just dont want to bother with the western middlemen because one way or another the consumers will manage to get them anyway via the internet sources.
you should also wonder about PNSO's material. unless youre the type of person who'd put figures in their mouth, you shouldnt worry too much i guess.

Bought the Ceratosaurus ($40) because I love it. (I didn't get the Rebor because it looked a bit too thin and skin-wrapped. And a bit too small too, I guess.) The Ceratocaurus reminded me a bit of models/reproductions by Stephen Czerkas, but maybe I'm way off here. Anyway, I'm not getting this Dilophosaurus. I'll wait for something else down the (this) line I might want to buy.

while reading your post, my thumb is in my mouth.......

If I'm going to be honest, this model looks pretty nice. However, correct me if I'm wrong here, but, aside from the head and broken wrists, I don't think this looks a lot like the JP Dilopho that it's trying to emulate. One thing that always stuck out to me about the animal from the film was the kinda awkward skinniness of it.

The Itoy model looks pretty well fed. I guess this would have to be due to copyright reasons, but I doubt it with companies like Rebor and Papo basically making replicas of the JP dinos. But, I guess it could just be chalked up to the artist's interpretation.

This one is pretty cool, but if it's going to be available exclusively through Ebay like the previous Itoy models I must pass. I have bad buying experiences from chinese Ebay sellers, plus those figures aren't that cheap that you can take the risk. I hope Rebor will trust what they said once on Facebook, that they have a JP Dilophosaurus in the works.
