Why do we constantly feel the need to judge everything? I can see writing a review basing it on scientific accuracy, when it's in hand.  But are we just annoyed we can't see the whole thing in order to judge it, voice an opinion then move on?  If so I feel like we are missing something.

Exactly why I have not yet commented on what has partially been revealed. I am waiting for the full reveal of these figures. I do not think it is right to  nitpick just yet.

Also, has Daspletosaurus been confirmed? I was actually thinking it could be Albertosaurus due to the fact that Carnegie had one, and Safari has been remaking some of the Carnegie line.

I don't know, I'm starting to think that the Baryonyx looks exactly like the Favorite one...  ;)

While I was joking I wouldn't mind that. Though hopefully not as shrink wrapped.

I can't say why exactly, but the shot from the Baryonyx looks quite Dougish. I guess its the Softtissue in the Moutharea. So maybe we get a fine one.

He's the sculptor of most of Favorite's dinosaur figures. You'll recognize his work if you've ever seen a dinosaur toy that looks like it's starving to death.

Haha, I think my only Araki Modesl are the Favorite Concavenator and Pelicanimimus, as well as the Gakken T.rex skeleton.
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

Today I asked safari of they had more to reveal then what is lined up on their website. They send the two eyes icon and a pinnochio emoji. So I think that is a yes hahaha. I also asked them. And also will The dino Dana Safari ltd figures be Amazon exclusive? Or Will they be at stores too? To which they replied Stores are able to buy the figures as well.. So... hooraaaaay :P
Onwards to adventure!

Or you can just pull a Papo and only make it look mostly like the character and call it a slightly different name to avoid copyright issues...

To be fair, a lot of Disney's characters are based on public domain....but yeah, that is pretty close. Actually surprised that Papo does not have a red-headed, green-tailed mermaid.

Well, that's encouraging!
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

I'm wondering what we will see first; the 2021 reveals or the election results...

If they really do have more in store, then that makes their current marketing strategy all the more perplexing. Hopefully we'll find out soon.
