It looks good in green. Love the picture with the doorway. :)

Finally I've got to see some of these toys in hand, and I must say they're great indeed. The T&T T-Rex is pretty cool, I think a kid must have lots of fun playing with it. Carnotaurus and Baryonyx are my second favourites among those I've seen at the shop. The only one I didn't like at all was the Allosaurus, even the Metriacanthosaurus was sort of decent compared to it.

Would anyone actually recommend getting the box headed-rat tailed Allosaurus?
The only reasons I'm considering getting her is because:
1) it's an official JP toy
2) it appears in the movie

I like mine a lot, I don't see the problems, but I'm not so big on keeping track of skeletal remains, so I'm not sure on the accuracy.
I'm excited for REBOR's Acro!  Can't ya tell?

It's not bad tbh. I mean, honestly, find a way to permanently close the mouth and the figure will look 10x better

I got the Allosaurus two days ago. It is not that bad, just a bit goofy if you can get past the shrinkwrapped tail, and big teeth. Definitely better in hand then in pics for sure too, especially in regards to the tail (it looks raptor like actually, although yeah it should be meatier). I wonder if those beautiful yellow markings are even on the film version though. I know the red on the crests were visible in the trailer, as well as the blue tongue. I ended up getting it, because it was the only at the Wal-Mart the other day, it's film accurate (teeth and tail aside), and an Allosaurus in scale with the others from this line.


Anyways, I got this big haul at Target yesterday, consisting of the Extreme Chomping Tyrannosaurus, Indoraptor, Baryonyx, and Legacy Collection Pachycepahlosaurus. This Target had probably every single Wave 1 release in stock, but my eyes were glued to the things I wanted to get then. Although I did eyeball the Legacy Collection Velociraptor and baby T. rex,  and the Pteranodon too. I think those are better in person, enough for me to actually want them now, although I'm not sure about the Pteranodon, since it will be much smaller then the Roarivores version, and it is kind of too plain for me. The Hasbro JPIII one is far better I think (bigger, more colorful, electronic, more articulation), aside from the fact I played with that as a kid briefly (I did not own one). Granted I also prefer Kenner's larger 'Junior' figure of the baby T. rex, partly because of the nostalgia I had playing with it as a child, and it was definitely a bit bigger then Mattel's version from what I recall, but Mattel's does win with the color scheme at least.

Anyways, here's some pics of my collection so far (as you can see I really am trying to get one of each species, at least. I'm waiting for the Legacy Dilophosaurus and Gallimimus, which is why I haven't bothered with the Attack Pack versions):

First things first: Great hauls and beautiful figures everyone.

Second things second: Thanks to a video made by forum member Jetoar now I know that Battle damage figures are sold in Spain in El Corte Ingles!!! Yeah! ;D ;D

Third things last: Everybody here is enjoying their new acquisitions while here I am, studying and unable to get me some JW toys love.
I just want to finish my bloody exams so I can go on toy hunt! >:( >:( >:( >:( 
And the legacy collection available here if possible....

Regarding the T&T T-Rex:

It absolutely is 100% stable and can stand on its own.

I unboxed it yesterday.

How to make your T&T T-rex stand:

1) Push the legs back ALL the way. There is a kickback mechanism. You will hear a snap but it isn't broken.

2) Adjust the legs accordingly, you can even adjust the width of the space between the legs

Reptilia

These are super! I can only imagine how a kid might feel having them, I remember how much I did like my JP toys back in 1993, so I'm sure if I were a ten-year-old in 2018 I would go crazy for such beautiful toys. I'm trying to hold off on the Mosasaurus and chompin' rex, but they look so great. I just keep on repeating myself that I don't need toys!

Can anyone tell which 2 legacy humans are on the back of the Spino box?

So..not a Bull repaint on the package..but the hands are actually in a more correct " clapping" position.


MLMjp

It seems that the Spino's sail is not as small as the promo pictures shown.

Flaffy

The paint job looks bad. There's no denying this. A lot of the intricate details in the paterning and colours seems to be dulled down and muddled.
The sculpt looks good enough, does the job.

Blade-of-the-Moon

Yeah that sail wasn't gigantic in the film as a few others have thought, looks about right to me.

Paint job is about on par with the rest of the line?

Maybe, but I expected a little more care would be done for the spinosaurus.
IF the spino is spray painted (which it looks like it is), I think it would've looked better if the paint/patterning was 'printed' on like on some of the roarivores. That way more intricate details in the patterning can be done.

Faelrin

I love that they created that scene above (even if there is no bull/buck rex). Same with the scene on the EC T. rex box. I do wish it had the blue markings on the sail, but that is an easy fix with some paint. I wish they gave it the green eyes too. Strange that it doesn't have the stripe on its body, but has been just painted with that white color over its body. It looks closer on the packaging there then it does on the toy though.

I've only seen the one on JPToys, and the one pic posted in that scale thread (where it's on display with the EC rex, etc). If it does have green eyes, then that's perfect, since I think that's an iconic part of its design. In this JPToys pic it looked like it has pale yellow eyes:
