Thanks for the review.

Thank you!

Sorry for the delay on these but here are the pics of him too!

Not my thing with the big frill around its neck, but totally awesome and of the highest quality, well impressed.

If it were a full body I'd definitely buy it.

The mix between a real Dilophosaurus and its JP counterpart makes it unappealing, in my opinion.

PhilSauria

Brilliant piece of work!, I'd prefer that it wasn't yet another JP frilled version, which shifts it into the film related collectables category rather that paleo art as such for me.

They have a frill-less version too..

PhilSauria

Good to know, thanks for that info.

I'll have to track down an image, not that I could afford one but I do like to admire the workmanship on show here.

Whoa!; now you're talking - that's amazing.

Thanks for finding these, I was going to look into it later. There's so much amazing work out there in the field of 3D paleo art by so many talented people. Of course we'll never know what these animals really looked like but creations like this certainly fire the imagination!

BRONSON

Yeah thats me super impressed, very nice.

I was shocked to spot these guys at Universal Studios (Hollywood) today. I guess the Dilophosaurus makes sense.


But, for some reason, they also had a couple of the Smilodons?

For commercial reasons.
Usually if someone wants to be a (new) re-seller, the main company force him to sell the full line of products (not just products he's interested about).
That's business..  ;)
The Smilodon is also overpriced (USD 425); Sideshow sells it for USD 225..  ???

Halichoeres

I guess they're taking advantage of people's tendency to be more spendthrift on vacation!
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.

I think so, they had a display of some iron studios and chronicle stuff and it was all about $100-200 more expensive than usual.

CollectioNeo

Nice to see those pices int he wild as it were but i hate when retailers overprice things, just there to prey on people not in the know, imagine buying the Smilodon and then looking it up to find you had paid over by $200 i would be taking it straight back personally.

Styracosaurus & Carnotaurus Female busts are shipping out tomorrow for me. SO pics and video reviews for them this week guys.

Also i've been told the Allosaurus bust is shipping this month too, which will be a super quick turn around since it wen up for order in January.

No updates on Quetzalcoatalus or Coelophysis yet though.

Blade-of-the-Moon

Still waiting on the Quetz, if I like it I might get the Ceolophysis.

CollectioNeo

Carnotaurus and Styraco got here today, both are extremely well done and up to standard, both really good sizes too!

Getting charged for my Allosaurus on the 25th too!

Pics and video reviews incoming!
