I just found out about them as well thanks to Andys dinosaur review.
They seem to have more models then figures, but damn some look great. I'm hoping to pick up somthing from them here soon.

Looked up Postosuchus and Sauropelta on Wiki to see what they look like. Good choices by Mattel. I'll be buying both...

I got a notice from Amazon last week that my JW Amargasaurus order was delayed until Nov. I just checked my bank account and see my account was charged from Amazon, sure enough my Amargasaurus just shipped today and should be here Tuesday.

"Battle at Big Rock" is up on YT. It's directed by Colin Trevorrow! Appears to be a teaser for JW3...

BTW, the next Dual Attack assortment will contain: a repainted, GREY Triceratops, the first, GREEN Concavenator, and the repainted, formerly Roarivore, Pteranodon. I may pick up the new Trike, as I don't have one yet, and that grey color scheme is kinda cool...

Yawn. Never did like that Pteranodon, and I have other versions of the Trike and Concavenator. They may end up shelfwarming for a while here, too...

They look awesome! I thought the Edmontosaurus was going to be a rescuplted Parasaurolophus, but it looks way better. The new dinosaurs/other look fantastic!

It is mostly Spider-Man themed, but I'd love to talk cosplay, lightsaber commissions, and countless other topics.

They are clearly re-using the Parasaurolophus' front legs, but who cares - I want that Edmontosaurus! The Postosuchus is that blue croc-like Attack Pack, and I will be getting it. The SS Sauropelta is a must for me, and so is that Sarcosuchus - figures that it would be green and brown. I don't usually re-buy species, but that Command n' Conquer Carnotaurus is very much different from the 2018 one, and I may pick it up. More Trikes and Pteranodons =YAWN=

I agree on those. The "Callovosaurus" and "Segisaurus" also look pretty good too. Problem is, my shelf is running out of space and I don't even have the Brachiosaurus yet...

Also I really think the whole sculpt is new but I'm not trying to argue...

I think most of them look pretty crappy myself but that Tarbosaurus is actually pretty cool.

^ IMO, the Tarbosaurus looks kind of cartoony and I don't like it. Of course, the final product may vary...

^^ Shelf? SHELF?!? The Brachiosaurus is not meant for a shelf! It stands on a table, or over in that corner which is meant for a curio cabinet...

If you think that the Tarbosaurus looks cartoony, then the Cryolophosaurus must be a circus clown in your eyes.

I think they both look cartoony. :shrug:

I'll definitely be passing on some of these, but as of now I'm interested in the Edmontosaurus, Iguanodon, Saurapelta, Sarcosuchus, and Postosuchus. Maybe one or two I'm forgetting.

True, it is essentially a new house pet.

I'm tight on money ATM, however the next one is definitely something I'm donating towards. I've been wating for that for a LONG time. Hopefully it will come out semi-soon, and not 3 years from now. A 1/18th scale T rex is going to be HUGE

I ordered the Safari Woolly Rhino from Amazon a little while ago; it'll be here Saturday. Looks like a pretty great sculpt and paint job from the pictures and videos I've seen. It'll make both my first Safari figure and my first prehistoric mammal.

On a related note, it'd be cool as all heck if David Silva would do a Beasts of the Cenozoic line somewhere down the road. There are all flipping kinds of great extinct mammals, terror birds, and assorted other contemporary animals that deserve representation in accurate, super-articulated form.

Just did math, a 1/18 scale Rex would be 8 inches tall and 29.4 inches long

damn
