The Amber Collection Charlie is now up on Entertainment Earth for pre-order as well, with an expected arrival date in June:

https://www.entertainmentearth.com/product/jurassic-world-velociraptor-charlie-amber-collection-action-figure/mtglb88

Collect Jurassic also states that they will be getting the rest of the line in June, such as the upcoming Dilophosaurus and Nedry figures: https://www.instagram.com/p/B_1dg2jFonH/

I find that interesting as we haven't even had a proper reveal of either of those yet, unless that is coming soon, and those release later in the year, and pre-orders for it just start in June.

Edit: If I had to guess they were probably intended to be revealed in proper at SDCC this year (like the others were last year, and the year before that), but now with this whole pandemic going on, that's likely to be canceled.

I love the lineup for this year, but anyone else wish they'd do some more...i'm not sure how to put it,...standard figures?

The attack packs are very small sized, and all the larger ones have either electronics or that "striding" pose that makes them hard to...pose. In other...poses.  ::)

I'd really like some in the style of the Kenner Allosaurus.... if you forget about all that surgical dino damage bit, it's just a good sized dinosaur with a nice neutral pose, yknow? And you can open the jaw freely without it being tied to a mechanism, which is nice.

Oh, fingers crossed that these electronic ones from this year have the mouth closed default-ly which then opens with the button. The first wave of roarivores still annoys me with the fact that you close their mouth to have them roar- that makes no sense?!

The theropods from the sound strike assortment (Cryolophosaurus, Majungasaurus, Irritator) have articulated jaws that are not part of the action feature, so you will be able to leave their mouths closed.

The massive bitters (Tarbosaurus, Siats, Sarcosuchus) unfortunately have their jaws tied to their action features and they are open by default. Same withe the control and conquer Carnotaurus.

Those clear rubber band things that come with some figures are your friend for keeping jaws closed and looking better on display.

So in search of a Postosuchus for my friend in Germany, I managed to find this Hungarian website that maybe has it in stock. Not sure if they do international shipping though (edit: Don't think they do as it wouldn't take my address information after I tried to make an account. Too bad. Unless there's a chance anyone here has access to this and would be willing to help us out, anyways).

Edit: Surprised no one has posted this yet, but some new pics and video of the Siats showed up on Collect Jurassic's instagram (if not twitter, etc):

The top jaw definitely has a notch for the enlarged teeth to fit in. So weird. I guess the upside is that this is the closest to having a toy to one of the unused concept art design's for the Indominus rex, rather then what it is intended to be (though granted it's only known from scant remains and has no skull, even if the chances of the real animal looking like this toy are probably slim to none).

So I just finally picked up a Legacy Collection Brachiosaurus from my local Target, and - is the back right leg on anyone else's slightly loose and wobbly? I wondered if this was normal, or if there might be something wrong with mine? It doesn't feel 'broken', it's just not as tight as the other three legs. Any idea?  ???

avatar_terrorchicken @terrorchicken The Parasaurolophus and Mosasaurus ones are new for this year I think. The Triceratops and Stegosaurus were released last year. To be frank I haven't found any in stores the times I checked last year, and have only seen scalpers selling them online when I've taken the time to look.

This website is carrying them for slightly over retail price (like $2 I think), in case you want to get any:

https://www.thedinopark.com/store/p1120/Hatchlings_-_Jurassic_World_Imaginext_Tyrannosaurus_Rex%2C_Compsognathus%2C_Velociraptor%2C_Stygimoloch%2C_Triceratops%2C_Stegosaurus%2C_Parasaurolophus%2C_Mosasaurus.html

I might order these in a few weeks from now, assuming they are still in stock by then.

thanks, I hadn't seen any in stores either, though  I hadn't really thought to look  out for new ones. The Imaginext figs are in a different area than the reg JW figures at Walmart and Target. And Walmart isnt even carrying any regular JW figures anymore. Its gonna be just like the Snap Squad figures, which Ive also never been able to find in stores, sigh.


Blade-of-the-Moon

Thanks for that link. There arent many in stock if interested.  I haven't seen JW Imaginext figures since before Christmas last year.

Bumpy has been spotted already in Australia, which features new artwork of the Camp Cretaceous characters. The figure also comes with a card (similar to last year's Dino Rivals):

Seems the original post by Collect Jurassic on instagram has been deleted or something, but there's a repost here that shows off the back of the packaging:

https://www.instagram.com/p/CAc-PvrDNG2/

So for the next wave only Bumpy and the purple raptor are new, the others being repacks (the 2018 Protoceratops, and the red Dimorphodon from last year).

So I guess this might mean the Alioramus, and green raptor, and brown Mussaurus repaints are coming in a later wave (fall?).

Very much looking forward to Bumpy, a must have for me.  ^-^

Kotori_Sonoda

Bumpy looks freaking adorable, I want one!
Unfortunately thanks to my country's lockdowns I haven't gotten out of the house at all since March (and even before that, stores here haven't even gotten Primal Attack yet), so no new dinosaur toys for me in the foreseeable future. Oh well, that's just how it is.
This is not your planet to rule. The Fallen shall rise again.

Has anyone seen the basic Indominus rex? I'm talking about the small $5 size that comes in a little box. They made versions of Owen, T. rex, Blue and the Indoraptor in this scale/price point for JW:FK and the only place I've only seen those was at Meijer stores here in the U.S.

I bought all three of those dinos and I really love the little Rexy. I saw preview pics of an I. rex and would love one at that scale as well (as the mini-action version just doesn't look right to me). Other than that preview pic, I've seen nothing...

Are these out there or has that basic line been cancelled?

The newest wave of Savage Strikes have been found in Australia.

Postosuchus (repack?), Styracosaurus, Scutosaurus, and Echo. Interestingly enough Echo has Camp Cretaceous packaging. Might mean she's in it possibly?

I need that Scutosaurus and Postosuchus. They look awesome.

PrimevalRaptor

I really hope once the pandemic is over we'll see those over in Germany! I gotta grab that Postosuchus for sure, I've loved that genus since WWD and I love how nowadays you got a wide variety of models of it (though I guess the posture's outdated) and kid me would have a blast with it!
It's also nice to see more Permian representation, too.

ItsTwentyBelow

Now the Scutosaurus in stores? I will remain cautiously optimistic until I hear reports of them being spotted in the states, then the hunt will be on.

Too frustrating if these two figs are impossible to find in stores over here like the BD Plesiosaurus was.


suspsy

Hopefully that Scutosaurus will make it over here at some point. And hopefully I'll be lucky enough to come across one.

It sure would nice if someone would make a bipedal Postosuchus figure.
