I was able to salvage most of the figures, but the soft plastic was sort of impregnated and impossible to clean. I also lost a few other JP figures for the same reason. Luckily, they are all reasonably common on Ebay.

Another vintage one: Carnegie Euoplocephalus http://www.dinotoyblog.com/2012/08/11/euoplocephalus-carnegie-collection-by-safari-ltd/

Good review Gwangi.  I played a lot with my Coelophysis. I played that they were Gallimimus and my Young Tyrannosaurus Rex was their predator ^^.

At least you were able to save some of them. I have a lot of things stored under my house (no dinosaurs). I shudder at the thought of what could be happening to them.

Awesome Therizinosaurus. The articulated arms don't really break the sculpt that much, yet it adds so much playability. Hoping the Bullyland Spinosaurus gets reviewed soon... I hope it looks better than the prototype pics.

Beutifull figure, but who is best?
this ot the collecta one?

No it does not. The head is really terrible, the posable jaw seems to be made from a different material and is (at least on all figures I held in my hands) terribly loose. The eyes are terrible too. The color choice is way too red (but that's a matter of taste I guess). The rest of the body is fine though.

The Bullyland theri is almost twice as big as the CollectA one and these are really very different sculpts so it's hard to tell. I have a slight preference for the CollectA one, but as time goes by, I'm starting to like this theri which might join my shelf eventually.

Good Theri. I think that the theri of collecta is like as WWD style with feathers and Bullyland Theri is a free idea from my point of view.

Why yes! Next, you need to review the Invicta Plesiosaurus.

Oh, and add the Baby and Running tyrannosaurs to the Papo Collectors' Guide list. (That's especially important, of course.)

NOW GO!

Sincw Marc is cammanding

Lets see that special list i conducted for you on there

[DinoToyForum]

 
...and the Invicta Megalosaurus needs to be added to the Invica page - I know, I know! Life is sometimes like a game of whack-a-mole.

I contemplated writing a review for that Plesiosaurus myself but with a plesiosaur expert running the site I don't think I could work up the nerve. There isn't a review for the Carnegie Elasmosaurus either is there?
While we're on the subject I noticed a lot of older reviews are only a paragraph or so long. Does anyone object to new and more in-depth reviews of those? I was thinking specifically about the Invicta Iguanodon but there are others as well.

Those old reviews are embarrassing, I'd very much welcome new reviews of those figures. And I'd also welcome a review of the Invicta Plesiosaurs, it would be great to read someone else's thoughts on a plesiosaur toy - mine are all so 'same-y'.

I agree with you leaving out the old old reviews.

and Gawangi, no there is not an Carnegi Elasmosaurus review yet. Just two pictures of the original model

Good to know! There are a few figures I wanted to review but those old ones were stopping me. As for the Plesiosaurs, I'll think about it but I need to work up some more confidence first.
