Is this a Jurassic Park figure or a generic one. I got it in a lot.



Please review it. I think that'd be the first Matchbox review on the website.
I actually bought these sets when they came out, maybe I can dig them out.

Edit: here are those I could find, anyone remember if there were more dinosaur sin the set?

In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

QuoteWell, there also was a baby Stegosaurus and a Parasaurolophus, both die-cast. I believe I have them somewhere if you require pictures.
Thanks, I found the Stegosaurus, will have to dig for more...

Does anyone know what these are? I think most of them came from a tube at a museum store, but there might be two different tubes involved, since some of the dinosaurs have genus names on their bellies and others do not, and there are two Styracosaurus... Some of them look like miniature versions of the UKRD figures. They don't seem to have been reviewed.

Do they have any markings at all on the underside?

Some just have "made in China" and a number, others have genus name, "China", "c 1993 E", and "CE"...

Ah, then at least some of them are from different sets. Have you checked out the 'bin figures' page on Dinosaur Collector site A? http://www.dinosaurcollectorsitea.com/bin.htm It is a great resource for these kind of figures, but the pictures are a bit small. avatar_DC @DC , have you any plans for updating the photos on this page, it would be so helpful!

Thanks for that link, seems some of them (those without genus names on their bellies) are of the "JP1 set".

They appear to have different colours, though.

Those look like UKRD minis, especially the edmontosaurus on the right. I have one of the two packs, and I still have them. I love them.

Also Halichoeres, I don't think it's ugly. It says 1992 on it, and something illegible. It can also move its legs and it's really soft and hollow. I think I might just keep it. I love the 1992 aesthetic. That's when I began collecting dinosaurs. I used to have this motorized orange Velociraptor, but I lost it during a trip in 1994 and I've been uncertain about everything ever since. I haven't been able to track down a similar one.

Yeah, those that have genus names underneath seem to be small versions of the UKRD dinosaurs. Don't know why  I didn't Googled" "UKRD miniature dinosaurs" before...

Here is a larger picture of them I found on the web after you mentioned it, will see if I have them all (more of them look familiar):

Saw this on a 3D print website. What kind of dinosaur is this?

I'd say by the backspikes it a euoplochephalus, but not entirely accurate. Still a pretty cool model though. Will you paint it?

Any idea what this thing is? Obviously based on the Carnegie T. rex. My gut reaction is bootleg, but it looks like it could even have been the lid of a stamp or something...

The same seller previously had this weird blue Iguanodon variant (or bootleg?).

As far as I know safari or Carnigie never made these. So I'd lean on bootleg. But the Blie Iguanodon rings a bell for me...

I've had several of those Iguanodon, they are real.
