Funny! If you're gonna bootleg anything, bootleg good figures. Now people can hardly tell the difference between the real deal and the fakes...

I get it though, Schleich sells well so they're an easy target for copycats. If that keeps people from bootlegging Collecta or Papo, I'm all for it.

Seems like a waste of effort, to bootleg such terrible figures :X

Interesting find though....

[Libraraptor]

Interesting, very interesting! Maybe I gotta get some of these, never heard of them before! Okay, it´s all a matter of taste, I know.

Interestingly, I just came across a set that had a bunch of Safari Ltd bootlegs, including their Utahraptor and the "Sue" Open mouth T.rex and Torosaurus. There was also a familiar-looking T.rex but I couldn't place it.

Terrible overall quality though.

Are they hollow vinyl?  Are they stamped with names?

They appeared hollow, but were in a window box, so I don't know for sure. I am not necessarily picky, but seeing as I have the originals, I have no intention of buying a bootleg.

The window box itself is something I am curious about Sbell, was it even remotely similar to the original Safari release for the Torosaurus and Sue /Anato/ Sue sets? Or was it also glaringly different?

I would cannibalize them for customizations.

[Ikessauro]

Oh, I've seen those around here, but in individual packages. There were all of them, but the price was ridiculous since they are very small and of poor quality. I didn't get most schleichs by now because they are not that good, so I skiped the bootlegs too.

Completely different--it was a bunch of awful dino figures in a box, some of which were Safari bootlegs.

[Takama]

I just got a box of these exact figures today. 

[docronnie]

Congrats Takama! 

This topic answered my query as to the existence of Safari Ltd bootlegs.  Now I know. 

[Jetoar]

Good boot legs of Schleich figures  .

Random Close ups


Spinosaurus


Stegosaurus


Brachiosaurus


Parasaurolophus (the best one in the bunch)


Triceratops


Velociraptor(which looks more like the original Bullyland figure)


Ankylosaurus (or Saichania as it was originally called)


and the B-Movie T-Rex

[Horridus]

I think it might be time to resurrect the 'Ugly Ugly Dinosaurs' thread...love the humanoid legs on that Velociraptor-thing.

Where can I get these and how much?

Go nuts. Not sure why you'd want them though, they're pieces of junk.
