N0 #2 should be the unpainted Tamiya Tyrannosaurus (older version) and Stegosaurus

WOW, Those are really old - I thought I knew the Tamiya Line...
Thanks.
p.s.
How do you 'mask' the detailed URL link with a supplementary title, like you just did ?

[sauroid]

#3, 5 and 6 are from a Bandai series.

I am familiar with plenty of Bandai figures - never saw these ones.
Do you have any link you could share ?
Thanks

Tried it - couldn't do it - sorry to say It seems I probably just didn't quite followed your intentions

Both of these were part of a "grab bag" purchase I made, primarily for the more valuable figures in the lot.

1. is what my son and I jokingly refer to as the "Hypsilo-raptor" since it has sickle-clawed feet but an obvious ornithopod-like head


2. Protoceratops. it was originally a glow-in-the-dark figure, before I started to repaint it


Can anyone ID the company for me?

[Roselaar]

The Protoceratops is a Safari knock-off, I'm pretty sure.

[sauroid]

the sickle clawed one is just a typical no-brand chinasaur.

I was fixing to review this figure of the Takara Tomy Spinosaurus...


...except I, erh, kinda forgot what it was called. I would have checked the box, but I can't find it anywhere and I'm assuming my cleaner threw it away last week.

I was originally just going to submit it as "Spinosaurus - Takara Tomy" but then I remembered that this guy who I think is from the same line is on the blog. However, it's listed as "Animal Adventure by Takara Tomy" but google searching this Spinosaurus model brings up listings that say it's full name is "Animal Advantage by Takara Tomy"

So, um, I'm just really confused, can someone help clear this up for me?

[Halichoeres]

Takara Tomy calls this series Ania more generally: http://www.takaratomy.co.jp/products/ania/

I would go with "Spinosaurus quadrupedal (Ania by Takara Tomy)"

to differentiate from their bipedal Spinosaurus if anyone reviews it in the future, and from the Dino Expo miniature version that TT made in 2011.

[IrritatorRaji]

A'right, thank you!

Okay, here is a curious big bird. I found it when I dropped off some of my unwanted dino figures. I check the toy section whenever I drop stuff off just to see if I can spot something unusual and worth getting.
So I paid $2 for it
Some features worth noting, the top portion of the figure is squishy, but not too much. The lower part is hard plastic to help it stand. I think it's a type of terror bird, but not sure exactly.
Anyway, oddly, it has fingers non it's wings! like a dinosaur (there are 3 digits ).
It's a decent figure, not too bad for a cheap toy. Makes we wonder if there are any more unusual species in the line it came from.
Anyone know who made it? Cheers!

[Takama]

Thats a Terror Bird From Discover With Dr Cool line.

There sort of Knockoffs of Recur toys, with some Original models in the mix

They are far from accurate

[EmperorDinobot]

What is this from?
