Southlands Replicas

It seems that they have lost the mold of the diprotodon.
I found this on aliexpress
https://a.aliexpress.com/_mtBcc3m

I tried to see if there was also the thylacoleo but I did not find it

It's sad but Aliexpress is full of illegal recasted figures, bootlegs, knock-off etc..
From those pictures it seems that the quality is far from the original.
The original figure is made from hard hollow vinyl while this figure is solid plastic.

... very sad. The dark side of China's Dinosaur figure revolution.

Glad I got my hands on the original last year. Sad to see it suffer from this fate, as the line dying off wasn't enough.

Even if SR wasn't kaput, this sort of thing could have happened anyway. Schleich and Papo are still alive and kicking, after all, and just look at how many knockoffs of their products are out there.

Including knock-offs that are more expensive than the original. Bootlegs got a long history. Even Marx got their own bootlegs in form of MPC and later JaRu.
