The Identification thread

mine are soft plastic, not exactly rubber or anything, about the consistency of the average safari toob figure

I know what you mean, but I don't know what it is, maybe a generic protoceratops?

[sauroid]

Is it hard plastic or soft plastic?

it isn't hollow if that's what you meant. solid plastic at 5 cm long

No I ment hard (like transformer plastic) or soft (like the red carnotaurus form last year).

nothing in the set was labelled, so that would be my guess

I don't like when that happens.

[stargatedalek]

well it was just a dollar store no-name kit

Chinasaurs or not, if the designers went through the trouble of checking up on lesser known species for production I always get annoyed they don't bother to name them properly and educate the young target audience a bit. Even though they usually get names wrong anyway. Now us collectors are stuck with unidentified species ad infinitum, and kids will start coming up with the wrong names. Believe me, kids care about such things too.

Still nobody knows nothing about no 'Iguadonon'?

Lol, the name reminds me of Blablanadon, for some reason.

Anyone know the sculptor behind these two hidden models at the Saint Louis Zoo?

[Libraraptor]

I don´t, but I love the hadrosaur and it´s pose!

[stargatedalek]

the giganotosaurus(?) looks familiar, I think I may have seen others by the same sculptor in books
sorry I don't have anything more than that

Hello! I have a mystery dinosaur I'd like identified. This guy use to have a label on him, but it has been rubbed off and I can just barely make out the word "rex" at the end, so I am guessing he is suppose to be a Tyrannosaurus. I mostly want to know what brand he is. He is part of my collection that I had as a kid, which is mostly made up of Safari figures. Could he be a Safari dinosaur? Thanks!

[stargatedalek]

I'm fairly certain it isn't a safari, but thats all I can tell you

[Roselaar]

I can safely say it isn't Safari, but I don't recognize it otherwise.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

might be AAA or Playvision..?

[Ikessauro]

Got some figures I need IDying:


The green Iguanodon is labeled 'Iguadonon', but nothing else. It's deliciously retro and fairly detailed. The paint texture of its claws reminds me of old Carnegiesaurs.

Iguanodon is from Planeta De Agostini as far as I know. By the way, if you ever decide to sell it, let me know, I would love to have it.

Is it hollow?  If hollow, it could be Toy Major. If solid, could be AAA.
