Review: Tyrannosaurus rex (Juvenile by CollectA)

Genus: Tyrannosaurus Brand: CollectA Classification: Theropod, Tyrannosaur Age: Cretaceous Type: Figurine

4.9 (54 votes)

Weaving nimbly through the trees, the princess pursues her furry prey. With a final burst of speed, she pounces on the small mammal and crushes its squirming body with her razor-sharp teeth. As she trots back to her nest and her parents, her prey gripped tightly in her jaws, this former fledgling is unaware that she has taken a crucial step toward becoming the undisputed ruler of her world.

Review: Tyrannosaurus rex (King Rex by Rebor)

Genus: Tyrannosaurus Brand: Rebor Classification: Theropod, Tyrannosaur Age: Cretaceous Type: Desktop Model

4 (37 votes)

More than any recent figure, Rebor’s sizeable King Rex seems to embody both the best and worst of the current dinosaur collectible scene. On the one hand, it’s hugely encouraging to see a company produce offerings that bridge the vast gap between the toy and ‘monstro Sideshow wallet-buster’ ends of the market, and produce a line of undeniably high-quality figures to boot.

Review: Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus (Sega Dinosaur King, 2014 Reissues)

I sometimes wonder if there should be an international ban on the production of new models of Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops (sure, an international ban on cutting down rainforests would be more constructive and more noble, but here I’m trying to use a ridiculous opening sentence to engage the reader’s interest.

Another Dakin review! I know you’ve all been salivating for my next review on the Dakin “Jurassic Park” toys and I didn’t want to keep ya’ll waiting too long. Do I still need to give a back story about these things?

Back in 2010 our own Libraraptor reviewed a little Apatosaurus, part of Bullyland’s Micro Tiere Collection released in 2005. Having found the same little figure in an eBay lot I was very curious about this small but seemly high quality figure.

Review: Tyrannosaurus Collection (Kaiyodo Capsule Q Museum)

Genus: Tyrannosaurus, Yutyrannus Brand: Kaiyodo Classification: Theropod, Tyrannosaur Age: Cretaceous Type: Figurine, Set, Skeletal

4.4 (9 votes)

A few years back the Japanese manufacturer of kits and figurines known as Kaiyodo announced the release of their “Capsule Q Museum” series. The various collections that have been released cover everything from anime characters, animals, food and, thankfully, dinosaurs. This was great news because with the discontinuation of their Dinotales line we were all sorely missing the exquisitely made and highly accurate little dinosaurs and prehistoric animals necessary to own for any collector of prehistoric toys, kits and figurines.

Review and photos by Raptoress, edited by Plesiosauria. Versions of this figure available on Amazon.com here.
2014 has brought us many interesting and downright awesome models, including CollectA’s beautiful Carcharodontosaurus and Papo’s somewhat inaccurate, but stunning and incredibly detailed Dilophosaurus.

Review: Tyrant King Skeleton/’T-Rex Skeleton’ (Geoworld/B.C.Bones)

Review and photos by Takama, edited by Amargasaurus and Plesiosauria.
Before I begin I want to state the obvious. Yes, Geoworld does make some terrible figures, but when it comes to their many fossil and skeleton replicas, we can see that Geoworld has potential.

All this buzz over the next instalment of the Jurassic Park franchise, officially now in production under the title of ‘Jurassic World’ and set for a 2015 summer release, has spurred me to take a look back at some of the toys from previous films.

Review: Tyrannosaurus rex (2014) (Carnegie Collection by Safari Ltd.)

Just as the Carnegie collection’s 10 year milestone was celebrated with the release of an updated Tyrannosaurus sculpt, so this year’s 25th anniversary sees the release of an all-new T. rex figure, one better suited to the line’s current aesthetic.

Review: Tyrannosaurus rex – Feathered & Unfeathered (Soft Model Series 2 by Favorite)

Genus: Tyrannosaurus Brand: Favorite Co. Ltd. Classification: Theropod, Tyrannosaur Age: Cretaceous Type: Figurine

4 (7 votes)

Favorite’s ‘soft models’ have had a complete revamp this year, with an all-new series of sculpts by the renowned Kazunari Araki. With the exception of Pachycephalosaurus and Deinonychus (replaced by Velociraptor), every animal in the original series has an Araki counterpart, and the differences are quite striking and very interesting.

Review and photos by Patrick Bate (Pixelboy), edited by Plesiosauria.
Ah, Japan. A culture that seems to be equal parts tradition and progress. Fortuitously, when it comes to dinosaurs, progress seems to be their strong suit. If you’re looking for accurate, up-to-date dinosaur figures, Japanese companies like Kaiyodo, Kabaya, TakaraTomy, and Kinto/Favorite are often your best bet; and this Tyrannosaurus maquette from the 2012 Tokyo Dinosaur Kingdom Expo is no exception.
