avatar_Stuckasaurus (Dino Dad Reviews) @Stuckasaurus awesome! Looks like a great order. I'm sorry about the pupil problem, major defect. Did you order directly from Safari? You'd think their QC would catch something like that.

If Anyone still looks for Deinonychus or Quinzhousaurus, I really want to get rid of the second pair I got because of shipping mistake. I can sell 'em for half of their price, just to get rid of them.

How much?

I did; I would consider contacting them about it, but it seems like too much of a hassle for a problem i can easily fix myself.

Hey all, this is slightly disturbing, but a TON of safari ltd. toys & figures just went on sale on Amazon for a flat $7.00. Not much of the prehistoric line, but many in the others.
I was just perusing through sharks (anticipating a CollectA Meg order) and noticed a lot of the figures just went on sale. Not an ad for amazon, but just wondering if anyone heard anything about a flash sale?

The only thing I'm aware of is the Earth Month sale they are doing on their website, but that likely isn't the same thing.

Did anyone else get an email from Safari Ltd asking for business? It's quite worrisome (as in if they don't get enough they'll go under).
[...]

I've done my bit to support Safari by buying the WS Deinonychus, Qianzhousaurus and Dilophosaurus at the start of this year, and now recently the WS Diplodocus, 2016 Carcharodontosaurus, Elasmosaurus and Liopleurodon.  I want to thank avatar_Takama @Takama for mentioning that the Diplodocus is in 1:40 scale, once I realised it was for D. carnegii I had to have it. :)

The only missing feature in the Edmontosaurus is the presence of hooves.

I have seen the the hooves matter on Edmontosaurus on the blog and I am convinced that it can be surely resolved according to Mr.Watson's description.

The request for mine is that if Mr. Watson can present us with a scientifically accurate, liped, closed mouth version of the most underrepresented classic tyrannosaur; Zhuchengtyrannus magnus, based on the morphology of Saurian T.rex such as finely scaled skin devoid of any osteoderms in the body etc.

I request Mr. Watson to shed light on this issue and want some opinion for this matter from him.

I saw the news about Safari not doing so hot right now, so I bought their 2018 Anky, 2019 Allo, and 2020 Sarco to help out a bit. Ever since I started "collecting" in 4th grade (if you can even call it that) I've always had Safari there as a go-to for cheap and high-quality figures. I hope they pull through alright!   ^-^
like a bantha!

Safari Ltd is having a memorial day sale with 25% off all items with a code at check out on their website. I was already planning on doing a sort of birthday haul in the coming week so this is great for me to see.

Anybody that owns the 2020 Concavenator can check if the model has the scutes on the underside of the tail? They were preserved on the fossil, but I cannot find a photo with the right angle to check it myself.

See F, lower right.

This is the underside of the tail on mine. Hope that helps.

avatar_Carnoking @Carnoking - I am afraid that I can't see your image. I just get a small empty box.

S @SidB  avatar_ceratopsian @ceratopsian Hm, I'm not sure why that is. Are you on a phone or a computer? I'm seeing it won't show up on my phone but is popping up my computer? Let me tinker with it.

I am on a computer, and it didn't work before you adjusted it. It works now though, so you must have done something right!
You must understand the past before you can change the future.

avatar_Carnoking @Carnoking - I was on my phone. This morning on my phone I still see the empty box. On my computer I see a standard "no entry" road sign but in grey not red.

Leyster

Sorry I can't see it too  :(
