Helicoprion is up on TaoBao at 149RMB, same price as the Allosaurus. Shouldn't be long till it's available at the usual suppliers.

New dorsal view pic, a huge improvement over both versions of the Megalodon imo.

The Helicoprion is also available through Amazon now.

It's also available on AliExpress (My Online Toy Store). There it's actually a little cheaper than the Allosaurus.

Still may have to wait on this one. I was expecting it would be the same price as the Atopodentatus.

I just got it through Aliexpress for $32.09, that's minus the packaging and includes shipping. As usual it's a bit more than I would have liked to have paid but this is a must have for me.

Unless if it's a knock off (unlikely, it just came out), or that the wrong price was listed, then it's highly improbable that someone would be willing to sell it at such a low price.

Do you have a link to the listing?

Ugh. I was expecting $ 22.99 like for megalodon

Stuckasaurus (Dino Dad Reviews)

The price might just be due to its recent release. I've noticed Safari products on Amazon are often way overpriced for a few weeks when the product listings first show up.

With this high price for this figure, some may argue, a solution would be to wait. It is what I am doing as well. An example of how price changes often is PNSO's Pinacosaurus. On Aliexpress, Model Toy Center first listed the figure's price as about $28 back in January. Currently the price of the figure is about $20. Note that this is before any coupons or sales are added. A few months later, you may save $8, the choice is relatively yours. I may sit and wait on this one as I would like to see what else PNSO releases plus I don't think the price of this figure is worth it.

One problem we Europeans now have is that with the new taxes coming in at the 1st of July, it will probably be best to buy all the PNSO models of our wishlists before that date, if possible. For that reason, last week I decided to purchase the Allosaurus after all, even when it isn't my most anticipated figure.

For later releases it will pay off to wait a little longer though if the initial price is too high. But man I hope that at least the Carcharodontosaurus can make it here before July...

avatar_SRF @SRF forgot about that. I believe the Carcharodontosaurus was confirmed to be released early June, so hopefully that figure makes it way to Europe before taxes are initiated.
