I'm hot for a new dinomania! Growing up with Jurassic Park and everything in its wake, it is the best thing to happen... since Jurassic Park. And I want toys! I want them even bigger than the Thrasher and Bull T-Rex figures!
These are sadly not mine
I'd love to know what toy series these are all from, some of them look amazingly detailed. I see the PAPO one there but it's so tiny compared. I want a BIG T-Rex model to put in my media room somewhere.
Me too, definitely more like the second picture.Yep, doesn't look like I remember it.
It was something like this:
but I don't remember the skin looking so cheap - quality wise I remember it more like this one in another pose:
Maybe nostalgia-goggles.. It's been quite a while

Oh man, I am incredibly jealous of that collection. All I have is the juvenile t-rex. Been tempted to try and find the others on ebay. Aside from that, the best I have are the Lego Dino sets, which allowed me to do this:
look at this suave ass motherfucker
that looks cute as fuck, I want to pet him :O

I'd really love to write a dinosaur novel.
Of course, the whole humans + dinosaurs thing means we need a huge explanation why and to not make it completely ridiculous. You need a GOOD FUCKING REASON to make the two species come together and anything less than PERFECT will get your laughed at.
If we could just shut our brains off, i think we'd had a ton of awesome dinosaur stuff out there.
I'm still going to write one one day. I even outlined it in a JP thread once. It will happen if Spielberg doesn't beat me to i.

I would love to have the Thrasher T-Rex! If you want one in good condition, you'll have to pay quite a bit. I checked ebay a few hours ago, and there is a used one from France for 15. Go for it!
Only had the one to the left as a kid, but to celebrate the day, I ordered this:
Running T-Rex from Papo. Looks so nice.

JP1 and TLW had excellent toys. JP3 didn't even have good toys to go with the movies.

Right, I took a pic of a few of my toy JP Tyrannosaurs:
I have quite a few more, but I didn't want to dig em out.

I'm following up with my post of pokemon.
Their evolutions got revealed.

I finally saw the ending years after it ended and I'm glad I didn't see it when it originally aired. I wouldn't have liked it at all and I'm still not sure that isn't the case now. I'm still surprise they ended it that way. They didn't have to do that.

Papo 2014 lineup: Archaeopteryx, Baby Triceratops, and Dilophosaurus!
Bonus- the Baby Triceratops is a more scientifically accurate version of the cut JP1 baby Trike:

how dare you get my hopes up
I thought this thread was about the show too. The fact that it's not is both good and bad.

Dont call it a comeback. They've been here for years.
