Figures by "Wild Past" (Updated 15.01.2020)

If you wondered if this project is still alive. Yes, it is. I finally figured out, why it is taking so long. The management of my contractors has been replaced by a new one. There were and there are some internal disagreements, also regarding my project, why everything is unnecessarily delayed.
That's why I thought I show you an (older) picture of the Tethyshadros, because you knew the model so far only from its head. There is something more to this in the current version then this picture shows. The colours will be revealed once the Protoceratops is finished.

You already know that you have a secure buyer of all your figures. I like them very much.

Halichoeres · October 11, 2019, 06:34:36 PM

Great to see progress on this project

DinoToyCollector · October 22, 2019, 09:50:09 AM

Okay, the Protoceratops is currently produced and painted. So it will not be too long before we can ship it.
Here is a picture of the current models. Many more are in planning and will be/are already modeled. But! Step by step. Please keep in mind: the shown models are not the current state of developement (except for the Protoceratops). The picture should only whet your appetite.

Oh, that looks like a delicious assortment! Will Urzeitshop be stocking your product?

Shonisaurus · October 23, 2019, 09:21:12 AM

I commented to a DTF member that I am doing war economy but seeing these beautiful figures sincerely I would like you to sell them urzeitshop or everythingdinosaur for giving two examples. I would surely buy those figures because I know that their prices will be reasonable at one hundred percent and mainly because they are figures of rare dinosaurs in the collecting market and very well sculpted.

I have thought of that but haven't wrote to the owner yet. I wanted to send over a finished figure to give a better impression of the product. The same goes for Everything Dinosaur

@Shonisaurus This will be the last step and I'm really looking forward to it and hope I will not have to cry about some bad comments

@DinoToyCollector All the figures that you' making look exceptional! Is the theropod at the back of the photo a Majungasaurus?
Plus, what will be the price of the Protoceratops?

Thanks in advance for the answers!

@Killekor
Thank you very much. The Majungasaurus (you are right) is made by

@spinosaurus1 and will be the second figure after the Protoceratops.
I still can't talk about the final price. There are 2 more things I have to determine before I can say anything about that. But! According to our calculations, we land at around 9-11€ / 10-12$ / 8-10£ Of course I want to keep prices low for this figure. I would like to emphasize again that the prices do not increase immeasurably with the size of the next figure. The initial high price is due to my financial security and the small edition of figures.

Thanks for the information

@DinoToyCollector !
I'm a bit undecided if get or not the Protoceratops due to it's small size, but you can be sure that i will get that Majungasaurus one day! It's great to know that it has been sculpted by

@spinosaurus1 , also because I saw a really great Sinosauropteryx sculpted by him. There's a chance that you decide to release it too? I would be joyful to get one!

@Killekor
I guess the Majungasaurus will be more popular among dino collectors and I hope we can meet expectations. But the conditions for the second figure are already much better than for the Protoceratops. So I'm very optimistic (and realistic). One more comment on the price: I believe that the small size and edition have made things a bit wrong in business terms. But the Protoceratops is a personal affair of the heart and I can imagine that it will get some love among collectors. If you want to have such little Protoceratops figure you will have it printed in 3D and put some effort into colouring it, which would make it more pricey then what we offer

Yes,

@spinosaurus1 did an excellent Sinosauropteryx. He's very talented in drawing, sculpting & modelling - one has just to take a look into this forum. I've seen a lot of his work and every piece is outstanding. I can't promise to release any specific prehistoric animal at the moment, since there are so much beautiful things we can do. But chances are high for such figures, because we want to focus on some unpopular species.

Killekor · October 28, 2019, 12:50:43 PM

I'll think abo

This phrase makes me really excited to see what you'll release in the future! Certain species in particular would make me a sure buyer of your models.
I'm sure that your brand will have a lot of success on the forum.

I'm curious to see the final photos of the Protoceratops! When they will be revealed? (Sorry for this big number of questions).

@Killekor
I can only show you a image of the last photo I received. The colours need a bit of adjustments but overall I'm very happy with what is possible on such a small figure

Shonisaurus · November 01, 2019, 11:18:31 PM

It is a beautiful protoceratops. I hope to have it on my shelves.

Killekor · November 02, 2019, 01:51:22 PM

Thanks for the photo DinoToyCollector! The protoceratops turned out really cute! I really like it and I'm really tempted to get one! I'll probably get one.
In any case, congratulations for your beautiful figure!

Sim · November 04, 2019, 01:43:41 PM

I'm impressed by what I'm seeing here! I think what you're doing is great,

@DinoToyCollector. I hope to have Wild Past figures of species I like at some point in the future! The three species you've shown so far don't appeal to me. However, I think at least two of the ones that were blurred out will be of interest to me! I'm also keen to know what the next theropod will be, after the Majungasaurus.

DinoToyCollector · November 06, 2019, 12:33:56 PM

Thank you all! I try to get the best results out of the painters

They are not that experienced with small dinosaurs but the brown colours do blend in nicely. This Protoceratops is still my first figure. There are a lot of issues I had (and have) to overcome and I already know what to do better for the next figures. We will improve a lot with the next ones.

@Sim There really is a new theropod in planning and I'm really looking forward to it. Sculpt looks amazing - that's all I can say

DinoToyCollector · November 19, 2019, 07:36:14 PM

Today I received a test print for the Tethyhadros. It's a small figure again, but it's looking good so far. I was surprised of how well balanced it actually is. It stands with no help

Jose S.M. · November 20, 2019, 03:27:37 AM

Tethyshadros looks really good and I like the pose a lot.

DinoToyCollector · November 20, 2019, 10:37:31 AM

@Jose S.M. Thanky you. Although it needs some minor approvements I'm very happy with this one.
That's why I finally bought an 3d printer. There are some differences between the 3D model and the actual print. I hope now I can do easier prototyping to make the figures even better. I've tried the printer with one of my unfinished models. I'm satisfied with the details (they are not at highest level at the moment), but have some trouble with the supports, which I try to work around. It's the smallest model I got in 1:35 scale and it's already cute (if it will be released it will not be a standalone figure)

1: first try ever, forgot the supports
2: Had some support madness
3: getting in the right direction

A group shot. "Say cheese"
