Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom by Mattel - new for 2019

[Faelrin]

@MLMjp  Glad you won't/didn't miss out on the pre-order though I know it likely won't be cheap considering how expensive shipping from US to other countries and vice versa tends to be (and I have felt my fair share of it too).

Brachiosaurus probably won't be out here/at Target until November (or so I've seen on instagram) so I'll share the wait. Even if it did come out this month I'm tight on money right now so I would have to wait on it anyways. Also I'm still behind on the Mussaurus, Proceratosaurus, Indominus rex, and now the Battle Damge Baryonyx playset (helping my pal in Germany get this one, and gotta say I want it now after checking it out in person), and give or take Echo and the Mononykus, etc.

[MLMjp]

It it just that I have spent so much money on these past two months that I feel ashamed.

The Buck T.rex, the Quetzalcoatlus, the Indominus rex. That was like over 100€ spent.
I could not decide which Godzilla from the new movie to get, I got the NECA because I saw it in person first but then the internet convinced me to get the Monsterarts, thats like 100 € spent for two figures that should have been one. Add also the Neca Mothra which I got recently. Also spent almost 50€ in a flintlock pistol replica because I love me some pirate related stuff.
And on top on that, other types of expenses that I could have avoided, but I didn´t.

I swear, after I pay for that King Ghidorah and whatever I found on my next trip I won't be buying more stuff at least until November.

[Faelrin]

I get you. I was feeling like that when I paid like $100 (including shipping) for the Spinosaurus last year, about $100 (including shipping) for the Lockwood set (plus some other figures) earlier this year or late last year, and I spent like $60 plus another $30 (including shipping for both) for both the Battle Damage Plesiosaurus and Pteranodon back in late June, though I also made sure the timing was right/money was good before hand (and in the case of the Lockwood set it was not all at once which helped). I've definitely been putting things off since then (with the exception of the Megaman amiibo I got last week, and Hammond in August will likely be the only thing then too), partly from spending so much at once, but also because now I and my family are doing worse financially right now. It's why I've just been putting off the Mussaurus and Proceratosaurus (and Indominus rex) for so long. I might need to go and cancel my Amargasaurus Amazon pre-order too just in case it ships this month too. Honestly if Hammond did not become available on Entertainment Earth I know I would have went without spending for August as well (give or take the Amargasaurus), but thankfully $35ish isn't too bad, and this is really not something I want to pass up on (especially with the Brachiosaurus being released this year too).

I don't even know how I'm going to manage next year though as I doubt I have the space for 17 new species as is, unless I can get some shelves since my other collections are kind of occupying what little display space I have (Safari prehistoric and fantasy, my amiibo figures, and my HTTYD figures).

Attention everyone

The UK based website Jurassic toys is going to have John Hammond in stock in limited quantities, stating pre-orders at 7PM BST https://www.instagram.com/p/B0nX32mlo9l/?igshid=zqdvlnpt8ueg
https://www.jurassic-toys.co.uk
Just after yesterday I ordered it throught Entertainment earth...

I have checked how much it will cost me an item from that web. About more than 10€ cheaper.

Tecnically entertaiment Earth does not charge you when pre-ordering but when the item is ready to ship.

So technically I could cancel the Entertainment one and get the much cheaper option, right?

[Flaffy]

A shame they don't offer international delivery.

[Faelrin]

@MLMjp If they ship to you then I would order from them and then cancel the EE order afterwards. They have filled up on orders now. Though I imagine others might cancel their EE orders to get it from there now if this would be cheaper then EE for them, which would open orders up.

[MLMjp]

Well...It turns out it cost 38£, add shipping and it cost basically the same as the Entertainment one.

The only reason to change would be possible import taxes but I dont know...

Edit: its already sold out.

[Faelrin]

Well for the curious Battle at Big Rock did not play before Hobbs and Shaw like was speculated about, after all, (unless it played with the trailers I missed, though I doubt that). Though with all this silence over it, especially SDCC I'm wondering if it has been scrapped, if not at least delayed, although there was silence before in regards to the Allosaurus and Nasutocetatops toys before showing up, with no reveals outside of stumbling upon early Amazon listings for them months ago, and from what that Mattel rep said at NY Toy Fair about this stuff, outside of the Takara Tomy toy reveal and the Jurassic World Alive update thing that was pulled which happened after folks started finding the Mattel Nasutoceratops and Allosaurus. Though of course I went to see it because I wanted to even though I was not too familiar with the whole Fast and Furious franchise (I only saw the first film in theaters which was quite a while ago), and I ended up thoroughly enjoying it. Either way even if nothing else comes of this, we got some nice figures out of it (particularly the Nasutoceratops).

Well Thank you for saveing  me some money.

I was going to see Hobbs and Shaw just for the chance to see the Battle at Big Rock.

If the project is cancelled, i wonder if the Mint Condition Battle at Big Rock dinosaurs with the "AS SEEN IN BATTLE AT BIG ROCK" label can be worth somthing in the future.

Finally found the new attack packs today at target. I kept missing the in stock notifications (all have been around 2am lol). Was happy to find the Mononykus and Echo at Target today. I've been checking daily since they reset the aisle last week. The Mononykus is one of my favorite Attack packs released this year. Here's the full review on this cool Dino. https://youtu.be/E6mqjuQTtJI

[suspsy]

Sighted the single action feature Dino Rivals at TRU today as well as the Dual Action toys and the repackaged Colossal Rex. Strange how the Roarivores repaints and the previous wave of small DR toys (Protoceratops, Herrerrasaurus, etc) never showed up.

[Faelrin]

I was able to pick up the Ultimate Baryoynx Breakout set, courtesy of my pal in Germany that I deal with on reddit, that I need to pay back in early September.



The Baryonyx jaw tends to get stuck after pushing the button, but on the up side it is a nice and easy way to have it displayed with the jaw closed.



The Owen figure has some sloppy face paint application.



But looks good in the armor, and helmet, and on the motorcycle (and as one can see the background insert in the box does make for a nice display type thing).



The compies with Dimorphodon:



The Dimorphodon figure with the Attack Pack one. Interestingly enough, the Dimorphodon is slightly darker then the Attack Pack one released last year. I'm glad to have one that's more properly scaled though since I never did get around to getting the Mercenary figure with the red one.




I'll have to take pics with the Battle Damage and Legacy Pteranodon with this new Dimorphodon for a size comparison later. I also will get a pic of it with the compies and Microceratus later too.

Well, the obvious choice would be have that Owen armored all the time and repurpose him as someone else. I mean, you should probably have an Owen already anyways. Also that Bary is totally Baryonyx GEN 2 from Jurassic World Alive.

So that set is available in Germany?

[BrightYellowTriceratops]

I've seen the Baryonyx set in Wal-Marts the last couple of days. I really don't care for the "dino damage" red paint or I may have been tempted to pick one up.

[amargasaurus cazaui]

Wal mart has moved some of these dinosaurs to clearance...seeing multiple Concavenators, and Parasaurolophus, as well as Nasutoceratops  all for 7.00 apiece

I've been seeing the same thing around here, as well as the Big Rock Allosaurus and Dual Attack Triceratops.

Not yet. I helped my friend in Germany to get the set from Walmart here in the US, and then he helped pay me for me to get my own (cause I'm broke right now), but we agreed that I would pay him back in September for it.

[suspsy]

Good news for Canadian collectors: I spotted the Roarivores repaints at Walmart and the Colossal Blue at TRU today.

[ItsTwentyBelow]

Woo-hoo found the Quetzalcoatlus today at Walmart! They must have had 10 copies of Albertasaurus and just one Quetz. Was about to leave the aisle when I spotted it up on the higher shelf among a couple more copies of Albert. I'm tall so I just reached up and grabbed it from its roost, ha.

This is a really impressive toy, one of the best figures all-round of the new Jurassic line.

Fitting end to a work day in the field 

[Toasaurus]

I saw the legacy collection green t rex at my local toys r us today
