Beasts of the Mesozoic, Jurassic World, & other Dinosaurs thread!
Guys,
Didn't find a thread for this, but with the first series these articulated dinosaurs, the Raptor Series, now shipping to folks, I figured it's something all kaiju fans here are interested in. I want to know everyone's thoughts on the various ones they picked up!
Here's my review of the one I Kickstarted: https://youtu.be/s8OUA7G8fAc

I wonder if they would do a retro series for featherless models

The whole focus of BOTM is to provide scientifically accurate dinosaur figures in a market saturated in immovable retrosaurs, so I doubt that'll ever be a thing.master_of_monsters wrote:I wonder if they would do a retro series for featherless models

I always wondered when theses beauties were gonna see the light of day. Glad to know they're coming. Though I thought he might've postponed them or released them earlier since Mattel is sending out their products in spring and resulting them to compete in terms of sales. I dunno.

Don't really care about the Raptor line but definitely looking forward to the Ceratopsian one.

Re: Beasts of the Mesozoic thread!
About time a thread was made. I hope they do an Allosaurus or Carnotaurus. It’s good we finally are getting good/accurate(well from as far as we know) dinosaur figures. I really want to make a stop motion project with these once he releases enough... I’m prettt sure it’s just one guy behind it right?
This is the beginning of the end.

Re: Beasts of the Mesozoic thread!
On a related note, Mattel's new Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom stuff totally rocks! They've definitely brought their A-Game to this line. Big improvement over Hasbro's half-assed attempt that was called Jurassic World. The quality of Mattel's dino sculpts is superb. Worth checking out, if you haven't already...

Re: Beasts of the Mesozoic, Jurassic World, & other Dinosaurs thread!
Good move, Salzilla. I was thinking about it myself. All dinos welcome here!!!
I picked up the Roarin' Super Colossal T-Rex w/ Battle Damage at my Wal-Mart. They had placed it on an overhead shelf, as there was not a designated spot for it. Box was in nice, minty shape. Once you attach the tail, it must be 4-5 feet long!!! $49 not so bad, for such a HUGE beastie! Impressive. VERY impressive...

Hear, hear! One of my "holy grails" is that someone will make a super poseable T-Rex. I really like the Revoltech JP Rex but I want something much larger.master_of_monsters wrote:the world needs more poseable dinos (also dragons but that's not for this topic)

Re: Beasts of the Mesozoic, Jurassic World, & other Dinosaurs thread!
I'm probably going to order one of the BOTM raptors (leaning toward Saurornitholestes) soon from BBTS. Never ordered from them before; are they generally reliable? Also, does anybody know if the ceratopsian line is confirmed to be happening, or is that still up in the air?
