Mattel--New for 2020

Betcha the Barbasol people are gassed...

Obviously there is a licensing agreement between Universal and Barbasol.

I assure you, they already thought about that.

Unless "gassed" means really excited? In which case I agree. Marketing for Barbasol.

Barbasol does cash in on JP/JW as an official licencee :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=blB4gxLLCCA

@Faelrin sorry for the late reply, thanks, I'm really eager to grab one. Hopefully you got one, unless EE was being its usual self.

Well, maybe "gassed" has a new meaning now.

I definitely got one thankfully.

By the way I ought to share this article from Collect Jurassic posted recently:

The most interesting thing is that Entertainment Earth will be investigating those that worked around getting more then one.

Barbasol will also be doing some kind of giveaway as well.

People have found a new AC release by surprise- Delta. A repaint of Charlie.

Some new images of the AC Delta:

A new Camp Cretaceous set was revealed yesterday by Collect Jurassic: "Camp Adventure Set".

Looks like this set includes the grayish blue Stegosaurus and pale brownish Baryonyx repaints, plus our first look at one of the new human figures, which I actually quite like, and a smaller version of Bumpy. I think Darius turned out well and might not look too out of place with other human figures. His necklace is a nice touch. I'm interested to see how big Bumpy is in the show and if this smaller version is a better fit for the character.

Overall, I like the concept of this cool big set and the two new figures are good, but it's a shame the two larger dinos are repaints that I and probably others have no interest in. Hoping Darius also comes in a different package considering how many different ways you can get Owen. But really, we're mostly concerned about dinosaur figures around here anyway.

[Faelrin]

Between the BD Baryonyx set, the upcoming JP Legacy set, and this set, this may be a sign of things to come of how humans will probably be sold from now on, as the previous poor handling (too many shelf warming Owen's) caused them to sell poorly on their own.

Also glad to see what's finally going on with the Stegosaurus and Baryonyx that was seen at NY Toy Fair, although the Ceratosaurus still remains to be seen.

[Carnoking]

I think this is how many human figures and dinosaurs should have been sold from the start, especially when it came to the repaints and retools of the dino rivals line. Nice to see Mattel taking steps in the right direction for making sure both their repaints and human figures sell.

I'm just giving a heads up but Nedry will be back in stock on the Mattel Creations website as July 23.

There was an instagram post with the date:

Edit: They might actually be selling it through instagram. Won't hurt to keep an eye on both.


Edit 2 I guess: I checked out Target last night and the only thing new I could find was the Epic Roarin' T. rex. I was hoping they would have the new Attack Packs at least, but nope just the same disappointing restocks or extra stock:

[Kotori_Sonoda]

The JP sections in the stores i frequent have more or less shrunk. No surprise, Primal attack hasn't made it here yet.
On the other hand though perhaps I should take this opportunity to grab that Stegosaurus figure (both the 2018 and 2019 versions are readily available here)

Spotted the Scutosaurus and Echo on a local toy shop a few days ago, didn't expect the camp Cretaceous figures to reach my country this soon.

I so much want to go on a "toy hunt" or at least on a "prospection of the area" to see what´s the current status, (since I should not be expending a lot in collecting right now) but I´m still hesitant to use the public transport and I only have like one toy shop and a department store near me.

[ItsTwentyBelow]

@MLMjp, where are you located, if you don't mind sharing? I really hope Scutosaurus comes to the US.

On another note, I am currently on a field project in Kennewick, WA and was amazed to find the old Savage Strike Plesiosaurus at Target here just now (score!), new CC rex, colossal I. Rex, and some new shiny CC Snap Squads, including Toro and Bumpy. Also a shiny Trike and shiny Mosasaurus snapper

Did we know about some of these new snappers? Definitely got Toro.

[terrorchicken]

spotted the tarbo, cryo, siats, charlie and sauropelta today at Target. So at least that chain is still stocking the newer stuff, although I think this wave has been out for a while now.

oh and I finally got an Amber Blue at a great price(due to a damaged box) from Toywiz. Fun figure to pose, still wish the feet were smaller, also wish the toes of the feet were articulated better so you could do a true running pose(hard to explain but if you have this figure Im sure you know what I mean.)

@MLMjp, where are you located, if you don't mind sharing? I really hope Scutosaurus comes to the US.

@ItsTwentyBelow, in which country was Concavenator discovered?

Ordered 2 of the Amber Collection Dilophosaurus for a friend and I from Entertainment Earth. The box came yesterday, but with only one Dilophosaurus...

I don't know if this is common, but I have seen quite a few people complain about EE's shipping recently. So, hopefully I here back from them soon.

Also, my Dilophosaurus seems to have a lot more QC issues than the Velociraptor I have. Paint where it's not supposed to be, and the lower jaw doesn't seem to be attached right. Anybody else have issues with there's?
