Check this out! Mattel’s Legacy Collection Reimagined Roarin’ Real Feel Carnotaurus (geez, that’s a long title) follows in the footsteps of the Tyrannosaurus rex Off-Road Tracker Pack by replicating the colour scheme of Kenner’s Jurassic Park Series 2 “Demon.”
Not only is it a more accurate representation of Carnotaurus, it also features electronic roaring.
Rebor has recently revealed their latest sculpt, “Cream,” based on the Vastatosaurus rex from the 2005 film King Kong. The Mountain version reflects the three that were shown on screen.
And the more sinister Skullwalker version appears to have been influenced by the Skullcrawlers from 2017’s Kong Skull Island (which was a much better and more fun film in my book).
Meet Maxim the Baryonyx walkeri, PNSO’s fifth reveal for this year. While there’s been no shortage of toys of humble plumber William Walker’s heavy claw over the years, Maxim might well be the best one yet, especially with that superbly sculpted dentition!
Have a peek at this pointy pair! It’s Saichania, the well-known ankylosaurid from the Nemegt Formation of Mongolia.
Saichania means “beautiful,” and whether in grey or red, it’s definitely living up to its name here. Well played once again, Haolonggood!
If David Silva of Creative Beast Studio could be summed up in a single word, I think that word would be “ambitious.” In addition to his ongoing Beasts of the Mesozoic and Cyberzoic series, he has made the following announcement:
Toy manufacturers don’t think that people are interested in scientific accuracy, but Eons and Creative Beast Studio know otherwise!
Deinonychus was perhaps the most noticeable omission from the Beasts of the Mesozoic Raptor Series, but it will soon be available in all its feathery glory! Check out these images of the 1/18 scale painted prototype.
The terrible claw never looked better. It is slated for release this coming October.
Creative Beast has released the catalog shots of the Cyberzoic Achillobator. Decked out in Fire Clan armour and ridden by a Fire Guard, it looks like one scary customer!
And don’t forget that the armour can be reconfigured into a relentless Razorhead robot!
Also recently released are these images of the painted prototype of the Beasts of the Mesozoic Dilophosaurus.
Here’s a pretty nifty new addition to the Jurassic Park ’93 Classic series: the Tyrannosaurus rex Off-Road Tracker Pack.
As you can plainly see, this latest tyrant lizard has a noticeably unique head sculpt. Between that and the colour scheme, it’s clearly a homage to the Jurassic Park Series 2 Young T.
For this year’s San Diego Comic Con, Mattel is offering up an exclusive set featuring the late music legend and philanthropist Jimmy Buffett, who had a very brief cameo in Jurassic World.
As you can see, the set consists of Buffett’s character, two margaritas, three miniature Dimorphodons with display rods, and a glass-shaped stand.
Haolongood’s dynamic Diabloceratops duo debuts!
As always, both colour schemes are very attractive. And as always, I’m partial to the blue one.
And here they are, Haolonggood’s Stegosaurus trio! And lest anyone point out that Stegosaurus toys are already aplenty, note that these are S. ungulatus, not the usual S. stenops. S. ungulatus was the larger of the two and had taller and narrower plates.
Images have surfaced of a new prehistoric playset from Schleich that will be coming out later this summer, Dino Temple Conquest.
It consists of the titular temple, a wood and rope bridge, a jail cell, plants, a human figure with equipment, a golden egg and theropod skull, and a repaint of the 2023 Monolophosaurus.
The Dinosaur Toy Forum Diorama Contest 2024 is now open! There are no prizes this year but the contest is always fun and that’s the main thing!
Rules, regulations, terms and conditions
Anyone can enter. All members of the Dinosaur Toy Forum, including staff, can participate. Non-members who wish to participate are invited to register an account on the Dinosaur Toy Forum (this is free).
Still another multipack by Mattel was recently revealed: the Camp Cretaceous Suchomimus Protector Set. This one consists of Ben with a case containing dinosaur eggs, a dark brown Gallimimus, and a new version of Suchomimus.
Behold Mateo the Tyrannotitan, the very first toy of that particular carcharodontosaurid!
Unlike the last big theropod that PNSO released, Mateo lacks lips, although his teeth still aren’t as exposed as the ones on earlier products.
