Most Kabaya figures are missing from the site.  It's the Dinoworld figures listed here: https://toyanimalwiki.mywikis.wiki/wiki/Kabaya

Here's an ebay listing showing all of them: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/204208323645?itmmeta=01J04EDGCB6T159P5BG36BQV71&hash=item2f8bc3bc3d:g:~uoAAOSwCN1e~akb&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAAwHZi7S%2FAWk6MTsVmt1eYPhOlbRKqRKFQos5g7stYFUq8JYxg0Dya2BJOt1J5gykU2iJl3QEVaNlDGK%2BvbFeS%2FPZ%2BVtzso0lrV%2BRg2x%2Bvi8%2BDqXusUIbEaZNVOYa%2B%2FZ4i3AHirHT%2BiqbXb7KajtBWSgC9jJKjVi7EQKElrWvfe0%2BNn0c7klgmhpJk9g0Hzm3mv5vLrb23Fqdkq7NdJ0Q%2BcpukuwjYV6qupQVVehhh%2F0nTwvZ1GWJ063c1gDR6fdbh0g%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR56Gto6BZA

@Sim Thanks for sharing those. I'll get those up once I'm done with the Captivz things, as well as taking care of whatever else I'm behind on.

Speaking of those, I got the first two series up. The Clash series is missing some images for some of the figures. Not much I can do about those, unless I AI upscale some group shots and do some editing. Not gonna worry about it tonight though.

Thanks @Faelrin.   I've found out there's two more series of Kabaya dinosaurs, both of which are missing from the Toy Animal Wiki I linked to earlier.  Araki talks about them on his blog, here's a link: https://dinomodel-cocolog--nifty-com.translate.goog/dinosaurs/2009/05/ver-1d92.html?_x_tr_sch=http&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US&_x_tr_pto=wapp

You can add the year for the Kabaya series currently on the dinotoycollector site as Araki mentions it in the link I provided.

Also, the set after the one currently on the dinotoycollector site has repaints of the figures from the previous series with Deinonychus replaced by a new Allosaurus figure, while the newest set has repaints of the figures from the previous set with Spinosaurus and Seismosaurus replaced by Saichania and a Tyrannosaurus skeleton.

The unnecessary amount of Tyrannosaurus is so boring.

[Faelrin]

Got the Camp Cretaceous Captivz added now. Yeah I know I've been pretty slow with this, but it is tedious, and I'm taking my time with breaks here and there to avoid another burn out.

Edit: Added the new Haolonggood Stegosaurus trio as well, because why not.

[K.Bela]

First of all, many thank yous for the work of everyone who is working on the site!  I was terrified that all data was lost when I saw that the database was breached/damaged. 

I hope that all previous data and functions can be reinstated in the foreseeable... The ratings I gave for the models vanished, and the "screening" within our own collections is still off. 

Anyway, thanks again, and waiting peacefully for the new, top-shape website! 

[Faelrin]

On a small hiatus. Will be doing door dash with my brother for the next few weeks, if not most of the next month, to earn some money for bills, rent, etc, so updates from here will be slow, and few and far between, sorry. Maybe by August I'll pick things back up where I left off (Captivz, Paleozoo, and everything else I'm still behind on).

Edit: Did some minor updates and additions for Mattel 2024, and Creative Beast Studio's new figures up for pre-order. Edit 2: Anything incorrect about the new BOTM (and 1 BOTC) additions let me know. I know there's some other minor updates I need to do for some that now have package art. etc.

[Concavenator]

@Faelrin Thank you for your work again.

Just one tiny correction: the BotM Deinonychus coloration isn't based on the blue-winged minla's. That is the case for the Cyberzoic version, but not for the BotM. I actually asked David some time ago what was the inspiration behind the BotM Deinonychus' coloration. He told me the coloration was Gabriel Ugueto's idea. I don't remember if I previously shared that info here or not:

It's indeed reminiscent of some of his Deinonychus illustrations, like this one:



Deinonychus by Gabriel Ugueto.

[Faelrin]

@Concavenator I figured that was the case but had no idea for sure. Thanks for the info. I'll make a correction for it.

[Samrukia]

really missing "My Wishlist" feature

[Faelrin]

I added the Haolonggood Diabloceratops, and the three new Favorite vinyl models. Did some minor edits for a few figures.

I'm on break from door dash today because I'm sick, so I figured I could get these up for now.

[Faelrin]

I added all of the Dominion Captivz figures now. Gonna start working on getting them images.

[Faelrin]

Did a few more minor updates for the Paleozoo stuff. But my hands are sore and I'm tired now. I'll pick it up tomorrow, and do some more. Maybe even add the remaining new ones finally.

Edit: Well I actually decided to add the rest of the 2024 Ediacaran figures for now, and did a few more edits to add the phylum Petalonamae, this way the frond like Ediacaran organisms can be searched for easier. Will need to edit some of the older figures to update them to this.

[Concavenator]

@Faelrin Thank you for the work!

BTW, what about retagging the "Miragaia" figures on the DTC site as Dacentrurus, taking Sánchez-Fenollosa et al. 2024 into consideration?

[Faelrin]

@Concavenator I have been thinking about doing that. Will probably go ahead with it the next time I have energy for it.

[Halichoeres]

Thanks for keeping this up, Faelrin. I have been very neglectful but I really should be helping out more!

[Faelrin]

@Halichoeres I don't mind. Honestly if things were better for me (and my family) I probably would have more energy for getting more done.

Well that and the heat and high humidity has certainly put a damper on me getting anything done either lately.

That said I'll probably get the new Haolonggood Saichania pair, and the rest of the new Paleozoo critters up later tonight. When it's cooler, hopefully.

Edit: Don't think I'm getting to the remaining Paleozoo critters tonight with how late it is (past 2am), but I did get the Saichania pair up at least. Got myself the Spyro remake on sale on Steam the other day and have been using that as major escapism. I almost forgot to get those up tonight.

[Faelrin]

Okay all of the 2024 Paleozoo models are finally up now. Might have a few older ones left to add, but at least those new ones have been taken care of for now. Oh and I also added the new PNSO Baryonyx. Waiting for it to show up on Amazon as usual before grabbing a pic. 

Guess after this I can finish adding the remaining Captivz, and whatever else.

[Faelrin]

Added all of the 2023 Captivz Hatchlings figures (and with images).

[Halichoeres]

A valiant effort, thanks as always!

[Gwangi]

I have a handful of those so I'm happy to see them on the DTC. Never did get the Carnotaurus though, by far the best of that set.
