Wouldn't the EC Spinosaurus be too small for the T&T T-rex?

Honestly, i think the T&T is oversized, and the Extreme Chomping T.Rex is just right

Update for collectors in Metro Manila--TRU Trinoma has just received the Stygimoloch, Allosaurus, Baryonyx, Carnotaurus, and Stegosaurus. They are not cheap--the stegosaurus is over $40.  Alas, walang rex or mosasaurus  >:( Nothing at the various SM Toy Kingdoms I've visited so far.

When "wave 2" comes out, are the "wave 1" figures disappearing from shops?

doubtful, wave 2 along with the other consecutive waves are like supplements.  That should hold true til next year then this year's line will start being replaced by a new one hopefully.

Okay, great. I know hasbro's line wasn't the best but it disappeared so quickly when the year was over... I don't want these ones to go that fast!

Do we even have an idea when Wave 2 is out? The Smyths pre-order link for the Spinosaurus that it was coming out in mid July. Would that be about right for when it hits store shelves, if not earlier?

Found a random Carnotaurus in manila after a stroll. Not bad actually.

Well, after seeing it in person, I went ahead and picked up the Baryonyx anyway - tiny arms and all. Something about that iridescent blue paint is just undeniably cool!

She was my favorite when I was a kid and now that I saw her, she is the most beautiful thing I ever saw.

It has been one month, one month of watching toy pictures because I wasn't able to go to stores and look for them, the frustration, the pain, the agony of watching other people enjoying these new Jurassic World toys without been able to join them in their happiness.

But now, the Queen herself has come to end this torture and bring happiness to a humble Jurassic Park fan. And she has done a fantastic job.

Now taking a more serious approach I have to say that I love this Tyrannosaurus, It was the first thing I wanted to buy and it is the first thing I have bought. I got shivers down my spine when I saw the Jurassic World display in the toyshop. The feeling of knowing that, unlike 3 years ago, now I have good things to look for, good toys to add to my collection. I´m so happy that Mattel took the JP/JW license and said: We have been given a great opportunity, let's not waste it! The present is great and the future is looking bright.

One thing about the figure: She´s BIG, she is beefier than my JP3 Animatronic Spinosaurus! Also the electronics are incredibly LOUD, my family could heard every roar from the other side of the house.

Glad you were finally able to get your "nostalgia on " with these cool figures bud!

Anyone have information about this Gallimimus (I would say it has the best hand position and posture, despite being pronated)?

My friend continues to complain about the double swivel joints on the pseudo ball jointed hips on most of these. What are your stances on this? Ball joints vs. double jointed rotating hips? I think it's a blessing, but he thinks they double production costs, and if loose, one needs some very specific tools to correct certain problems, like joints being loose.


Furthermore, I do not own any of the Beasts of the Mesozoic sets, but I do own the entirety of Vivid!'s WWD3d line, which appear to use double swivel jointed legs. How are the BotM sets and how do the hip joints compare to the JWFK and WWD3d sets?

I guess it is the battle damage one? I prefer the attack pack version, personally.

Here's a video comparing the two giants, Mosasaurus and colossal T-Rex, go to the final part to see. Although not to scale they look great together, best two JP toys ever.

It's the Walmart Battle Damage Exclusive. Very similar to the Legacy running one.

I haven't seen it anywhere as far as member pics and was wondering if it is a later release. The arms look more natural and less tense than the other versions.

Results of today's hunt:  :))


Very happy with them but the hunt was though. I visited three El Corte Inglés (The most prominent Department store here in Spain) and it wasn´t until the last one where I found the Triceratops and Allosaurus. The selves of the first two were half empty! And the last one only had a very small space for JW toys! There were only human figures, attack pack figures, TnT T.rex and Claire story packs, NO Roarivores, NO Action attacks. This is what happens when you came one month late to the party. :(

Also el Corte Ingles is supposedly carrying Battle damage figures yet I did not see any of them. You can order them online but there is a problem.....You can't chose which one you get! It only shows an image with all the Battle damage figures but it does not allow you to choose! I don't wanna play some kind of lottery to see which one I get, I only want Blue! I saw the attack pack figure of her and did not pick it up because I want the battle damage version! Why it has to be so complicated?!

It's a Wave 2 or 3 releases.

Apart from the fact that this is hilarious :)) I believe we can say that Spino looks pretty big here...
