2013 Figures

[CityRaptor]

Maybe. Glad I got mine last year.

I think it was:
Carnegie: Old Brachiosaurus aka Giraffatitan.
WS: Suchomimus, Kentrosaurus

I tought the ambelodon was retiring too this year, and could someone please explain what a Griaffatitan is?

I think it was retired earlier, but they still had stock to burn off.

And Griaffatitan is the genus that the African braqhiosaurs now belong in--some people refer the name to figures whether it was originally ascribed to them or not (since the figure predates the genus split).

I wanted to play safe and make clear which Version. Interestingly enough, when I was in Berlin last Summer, it was stil labeled Brachiosaurus and not updated yet.

I was at Toy Fair.  GeoWorld is doing a Prehistoric mammal release for 2013 big range.  Why are we seeing so many new prehistoric mammals this year?  is there a new movie or documentary coming out?

Well there is a animated movie called the Croods

Croods? That sounds like something one could have a really bad case of...
But yeah, that increase of mammals is odd. When Tyco did that to Dino Riders, the line ended. Maybe the Mammal-Chauvinists, how Bakker calls them, are taking over the Prehistoric Market!

Im thinking it was a poor seller, which is a shame.

The Kentro was quite similar to CollectAs and vice versa. Perhaps it will be re-issued in different colors or the Carnegie line will get one.

I do like how they retire pieces though it certainly feels more like a collector-friendly deal.

The funny thing is that the FameMaster Kentrosaurus puzzle is pretty much the same size as well, but more colourful than either the CollectA or the Safari. The 3 together make a good group.

I still don't have the CollectA one myself..but I think I've seen them together somewhere in a pic.

I saw the trailer for "The Croods" and yeah, it is about "cavemen" but all the animals look to be imaginary, I don't think it has any part in the inspiration for toy mammals.

[CityRaptor]

In that case it makes little sense.

Since I'm fairly new to collecting Safari: How far is it Collector-Friendly?

I would think far enough. For me at any rate.

very supportive and Collector-Friendly.  visit the face book site.   

[Takama]

Ok for those of you who were wondering, Safari brought back there original Wild Safari Brachiosaur due to popular Demand.

Apparently people like outdated reconstructions

[Primeval12]

Weren't the new Jurassic Park toys supposed to come out today?

Not precisely, they are supposedly coming out somewhere in March according to Hasbro. TRU just had the release date as March 1st. Have patience a while longer.

I know, that's where I got it from, since I'm a JP Toys mod.

So here is the first look:





I like the Pachyrhinosaurus a lot! The Allosaurus...eh.

Still can't wait to buy em.

[suspsy]

The packaging is fantastic. Possibly the most attractive of any JP line.

That Pachyrhinosaurus looks like an entirely new species of ceratopsid with that ridiculous neck. But I will buy it nonetheless.

I like how the human figures appear to be reaching out, as though someone told them they're just visiting a petting zoo. Silly humans.
