Review and photos by ‘Resurrection of the dinosaurs,’ edited by Suspsy.As I wrote a review about a repainted figure in my last review for the DTB, I figured I would finish reviewing repainted figures instead of skipping to other ones. So here I am with the Schleich ‘Conquering the Earth’ 2018 repainted Therizinosaurus.
Review: Stegosaurus (Jurassic Park Series 1 by Kenner)
Review: Camarasaurus (Jurassic Hunters by Geoworld)
Review: Compstegnathus (Jurassic Park: Chaos Effect by Kenner)

Although the Jurassic Park: Chaos Effect was far from successful upon its release, it has since generated a cult following from some hardcore collectors. One of the most well known and easiest to find of the hybrids is the Compstegnathus.
Review: Velociraptor mongoliensis (Beasts of the Mesozoic: Raptor Series by Creative Beast Studio)

In 2016, a Kickstarter campaign was launched that would help to revolutionize the world of dinosaur toys and collectibles by bringing forth figures that were not only highly detailed and highly articulated, but also scientifically accurate for the most part.
Review: Liopleurodon (Dinotales Series 1, Versions A and B by Kaiyodo)
Although these figures might fall short of Dinotales’ best, they are still delightful and unique representations of the famous Jurassic pliosaur.
Dinotales (in Chocolosaurs) were something of a hidden gem for me; despite an extensive production series, the Japanese capsule toys haven’t ever been marketed much at all overseas, at least that I know of.
Review: Mononykus (Jurassic World: Dino Rivals Attack Pack By Mattel)
If there’s one group of dinosaurs that have never before graced a child’s toy box then it would almost certainly be the alvarezsaurids. Alvarezsaurids are small, maniraptoran dinosaurs whose fossils were found in North and South America, as well as Asia. These dinosaurs had long legs and necks, and were probably feathered, but the main characteristic that sets most of these particular dinosaurs apart, is their insanely tiny arms, which end in a single clawed digit.
Review: Eryon (Dinotales series 4 by Kaiyodo)
Review: Pteranodon Escape (Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom by LEGO Juniors)
Review: Kentrosaurus (DinoWaurs Survival)
Once more, we head to the DinoWaurs Survival line, this time investigating a member of the Stegosaurs added to the line, and the first figure of this line I bought: Kentrosaurus. From the Kimmeridgian of Tanzania, this Stegosaur is often thought of as primitive, but recent studies suggest it is more derived and closer related to Stegosaurus itself.
Review: Alpha Velociraptor (Jurassic Park: Chaos Effect by Kenner)

While Jurassic World popularized the idea of genetically modified dinosaur hybrids, Kenner beat them to the idea over 17 years prior with the Jurassic Park: Chaos Effect line, a mix of crazy hybrids and similarly crazy repaints of old figures.
