Not my Box Turtle. Just posted the pic since it clearly shows a red eyed reptile. And those are some really stunning red eyes, aren't they?
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

Nonetheless, I find that red diabolic eyes look strange in case of a large plant eater.

I received the two figures and, as already mentioned, the paintjob is rather bad, e.g. in case of the Gryposaurus the gray of the claws is also painted on the toes. And btw. if you would add some horns to the skull and some wings, the Gryposaurus would be a nice dragon.

My little dove has red eyes. This isnt him, but it's the same species:

That looks like an albino. Red eyes are normal here.

Here is a Black Swan:

There are black feathers and the bill is black. That is probably not an albino pigeon.

MOAR red eyes







But seriously, if the red eyes are such a bother, just repaint them. It's not hard :)

It is a eurasian collared dove. Their eyes are always red :)

Care to explain? Does not look draconic to me at all.

I bet he meant the Diabloceratops.

I just got in the last of the new 2013 Collecta figures from ED. I don't think we had pics of these yet?:



Deluxe Parasaurolophus. Good figure, but nothing remarkable. Paint job is a bit bland.



Pachycephalosaurus. Smaller than I expected. Pretty good.





Fits in well enough with the existing diorama figures from Collecta.



Daspletosaurus wasn't wholly new I believe, but here's another one to make sure. Fairly decent figure, but legs really feel too short.

Any more shots of the Para ? I was going to skip it but from this angle it looks nice.just needs better paint as you said.

The Pachy looks good, I had already planned to get him eventually.

The Daspleto..I don't know really..they sort of look okay to me..maybe it the position..he should have had his legs out forward more and resting on his bum.

Takama

Great figures.   I will admit. The paras head looks a little to small.  The pachys feet seem to tiny
And the desplato is disproportiond

The only other shot of the Para I made is the little hazy group shot in the Acquisitions thread. I could make more, but there's little more to it than this. It does look better from the angle above, that's true.

Yeah I saw that one, that's fine. The original promotional pic just looked so bland..I was a bit surprised it looked so good now..big difference an angle can make I guess.. lol
