CollectA Brontosaurus corpse review (review in German).


Shonisaurus

That brontosaurus corpse is great, is there a comparison photo on the Internet where it can be compared with other dinosaur corpses from other brands such as the Rebor tyrannosaurus? I want to have such a figure.

That brontosaurus corpse looks like a polichinella abused and cruelly broken by children. I feel compassion for that figure.

When will the Xiphactinus be available at Mini Zoo and/or avatar_Everything_Dinosaur @Everything_Dinosaur again? I know it was mentioned here before, but I've forgotten.

When we at Everything Dinosaur announced the Xiphactinus in collaboration with CollectA back in November 2020 we stated that this model was scheduled to be in stock with us around mid 2021.  We have not received a precise delivery schedule but we would expect the Xiphactinus to be available late second quarter or early third quarter of this year - around late June/July time.  If we get updates (and we are constantly in touch with factories and manufacturers over all sorts of issues), we will publish updates on our social media pages including Facebook and our YouTube channel.

In the end it was not guns or bombs that defeated the aliens, but that humblest of all God's creatures... the Tyrannosaurus rex.

Oh great. Then it is not long, until the german Onlineshops will have it. Thanks. I really want that Elasmosaurus.

I wonder if the Pravitoceras and the Xiphactinus will also be released soon, or if it won't be till August. I shall inquire of Minizoo.

They're still slated for July, but they'll probably be staggered like the previous releases have been this year.

Good to know.

Hey, Minizoo has the prices listed for the remaining to be released figures.

https://www.minizoo.com.au/collecta/collecta-2021/

The Dilophosaurus is cheaper than I expected. Can't wait for July.

I'm a little surprised by the price of the Pravitoceras, but I suppose it's a pretty complicated mold. And honestly $10 is still a pretty good bargain.

Heads up to anyone using the search feature: the listing for Xiphactinus is misspelled "Xiphactinu"

All thinking consider, still a good price, aren't they big size figures? I can't wait!

Halichoeres

I think they're all "popular" size, but I could be mistaken.

Just got an email from Minizoo, due to a problem with shipping, the rest of the 2021 releases will be delayed until August. Don't know if this affects other retailers but it's not too long to wait in any case.

Frankly I'm relieved - due to new COVID rules about mandatory checking in to every place you go I finally gave in and got a damn smart phone (never wanted one) so with that and paying some hefty bills I've got s#@* for cash at the moment. So a little break is fine by me.
