That is a Horrible recast of my original Velociraptor sculpt fro the late 90's , it was also copied by the Chinese/Japanese company .

Very nice looking skull on Ebay, though obviously mislabelled. What is it? Or is it an actual skull model?
My guess would be some form of raptor...

Ahh yikes I found you proudly holding that piece.
Feel bad now...  :-\

I'm still trying to clarify the origins of this guy:

Has anybody seen it before?

I have not. But I just won this guy on E-bay. I am guessing from the same seller? I base that on the similarities in the sculpt and the simple fact he stands on the same granite table as yours...

Thanks for sharing that! It does lend a little further credence to my hypothesis that Takashi Oda sculpted mine as well.

I have compared these with Takashi Oda's work and it indeed looks like there is a resemblance.
If the seller is honest in stating that the artist painted mine, that would mean I have a cast made AND painted by Takashi Oda. Now that would be great :-)
I have not seen either of our figures anywhere else so far...

Isn't yours the 2010 desktop model that Takashi Oda sculpted for Favorite?

Help! What is this? Who's it by?
I may not like feathered dinosaurs and stumpy legged Spinosaurs, but I will keep those opinions to myself, I will not start a debate over it, I promise. 😇

Old Schleich Spinosaurus in the middle, on the left Papo Velociraptor. Schleich was very progressive with a quadruped Spino in a time when others either did not make one or made it a biped  ;D ;D

It's really just based on the old quadruped image of Spinosaurs.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Just getting it out of the way, the bird is not mine.

Hynerpeton

Anyone know who makes these? Well only one is posted. But I got two.

Walking With Monsers:
[about Lystrosaurus] Astonishingly, their vast herds make up more than half of all life on Earth. Never again will a single species do so well.

Walking With Monsters: (Hynerpeton) To avoid injury the males demonstrate their strength  in a strange  push up contest.

is this the bird figure? it is made by Nayab, but the exact species isnt labelled. (im not sure if they were trying to represent a racquet tail parrot or whatever but the color doesnt match any bird)

"you know you have a lot of prehistoric figures if you have at least twenty items per page of the prehistoric/dinosaur section on ebay." - anon.

A.Garcia

Regarding that bird-- based on the shape of the trailing feathers, as well as the colors, I would say the closest match is a racket-tailed roller, though the head and wings seem a bit parrot-y. With a model like this, you could make it what you want. You could even customize it into a scissor-tailed flycatcher, though it could be a stretch. I've been looking for these Nayab birds off and on for a while.

Hynerpeton

I could call it a Dino if i wanted. Lol
