Mattel--New for 2020

[MLMjp]

Not that good looking side view.

Again, is like they were different figures depending of which room they were.

I will still wait for more pictures, but thanks @Faelrin.

Some Camp Cretaceus packaging reveals:

This T.rex side view is alright, but I still need to see a full review of it to be 100% sure about it.

Also, the Parasaurolophus can be put in a bipedal pose!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

The Rex kinda looks like it's tiptoeing..and the head is a bit..large.  I was willing to give the new sculpt a chance but..





I'd like to see the back of those boxes..

[Faelrin]

Aside from these being new looks at the figures seen at Toy Fair, look at that sweet packaging design. The only one I think could be better is the Super Colossal Indominus rex, since the body pasted on it looks odd.

The rex almost looks made to be in the box with the coloration of the belly blending into it. I agree that the proportions of it look off, but something I didn't notice before is that the sculpt detail does resemble the original JP rex animatronic better then the previous sculpts though which is a plus.


I still will be waiting for in hand pics of this however to get a better idea of the color scheme however, but I'll probably get this just to have an electronic rex.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

The boxes are mockups, so I bet the Indominus body areas will be cut out. I'd say the designs of the main characters aren't done yet either hence the silhouettes.

The Rex is about 90% the same sculpt as the previous releases. The head is different and maybe the ribs as the action feature changed.  But that head is HUGE just look at the animatronic compared, it's bigger than giant noggin STAN.

I think that the T.rex, even with these proportions, is not only the best one made by Mattel so far but among the best three ever, Kenner included.

Between the slightly modified headsculpt, the thicker neck and the new coloration it's the closest toy (I'm not including models from Papo, Rebor, etc.) we have to the classic animatronic. Also, the Gimmick ant the electronics are really cool.

There was another Toy Fair video that was barely talked about:

While it doesn't show anything new, it does give us probably the best side view of the T.rex:

This gives me more hope that the T.rex, despite some stylization of the sculpt, will deliver.

And I am gonna stop with this T.rex discussion cause we already have talked enough about it. Well be back when the have more images or video-reviews.

I have no desire to own any of the Mattel T. rexes, but I think that this one is the best-looking to date.

I like the colors of that new Trex but I want to know if it can hold a pose the way the extreme chomping Rexes can. You know how the EC you can move its head up, down or sideways and it will stay in place? If this new Rex can do that then Ill pick one up, if not Ill just get the older EC with the same darker brown color(I currently have the battle damage tan brown one.) Unfortunately the video posted above didn't really help with what I was looking for.

The neutral pose shown above is the only one it can really hold on it's own being an electronic figure, the EC is just poseable with no action features really aside from the mouth function.

^thanks, then Ill pass on it! 

[Dinoxels]

Weird that the T.rex shakes when it roars.

[Gwangi]

That video is aggravating, "it's a feature that boys will really like". Keep toys gender neutral.

It's so epic awesombro..it has to. lol

Remind them 99% of the dinosaurs are female..

I'm not sure why but when I saw that Para my first thought is "huh it looks like the Paradeinonychus from Chaos effect" even though a quick google search tells me their colors were nothing alike lol
I definitely like his though, loving the brighter colors.
Also it can be put in a bipedal pose, that's awesome! the Dino Rivals one can sort of be put in a bipedal pose but i haven't had sucess making it stand.

[Loon]

I wasn't really paying attention to anything from Toy Fair outside of pictures, so, did they say anything about the Legacy Collection?

[Faelrin]

So I just saw that my Postosuchus pre-order got canceled on Entertainment Earth. I will not be surprised if the others do with this coronavirus stuff. I checked the page out through google and it says they will not be receiving any.

I know some Kohl's stores had been getting the case with Charlie and the Sauropelta but I was unable to check before the lockdown in my state closing all non life sustaining stores.

I have heard that Aldi's stores are getting the Snap Squad Mosaurus, Spinosaurus, Indominus rex, and Tyrannosaurus.


Edit: Does anyone here have access to Charlie, Sauropelta, and the Postosuchus and is able to search for them when out grocery shopping (to minimize exposure during this pandemic of course)?

Sadly I never found a Postosuchus, but I have a Charlie and Sauropelta in hand. I will keep an eye out for them, but TRU already doesn't have them listed on their website.

[Faelrin]

@stargatedalek Thanks for wanting to help, if you have any luck with finding more.

I've already called one of my Walmarts with no luck as expected. I can try some others as well, even if I'm doubting they'll have any. Oddly enough the Postosuchus (and the others) was showing as in stock (in store only) on both the app and on Brickseek in 6+ quantities but if I had to guess those are either the number of cases themselves or how many figures of the Savage Strike assortment and might not be the new figures at all (which I am skeptical of as there has been little to no news of these being found here at all as of late).

I did see Charlie and the Sauropelta are in stock on the Australian Toys R Us though:

The Local Walmarts i been too either had nothing but Wave one Sound Strikes, and Dino Rivals Products, Or ABOSULUTLY ZERO JURASSIC WORLD PRODUCTS to offer.

I never seen a single Primal Attack Savage Strike Figure in person. Not even at my local Targets, which have faired better then the Wal-Marts i been too. At least there, they have Primal Attack Attack Packs, and  the Massive Bitors Wal-Mart refuses to stock.
