Nodosaurid (“Furkan”)
Out of the depths of my cabinets I dug out this odd Nodosaurid for you. And it´s kind of strange for a review that I do neither know the exact species nor the origin of the figure. I bought it from...

Stegosaurus (Sideshow)
Sideshow’s rendition of the mighty Stegosaurus was released in summer of 2012. At 16″ high and 26″ long, the term “mighty” becomes quite appropriate. While previous models like the Apatosaurus may have...

Stegosaurus (Soft Model Series 2 by Favorite Co. Ltd.)

Minmi (CollectA)
Review and photos by Rob Oakes I have never been much of a CollectA fan but I ran across this little guy and was intrigued. It looked a lot better than some of the others CollectA nodosaurs and...

Dacentrurus (Terra Series by Battat)
As I started writing this review I realized that I am an anomaly. During the 90’s when I was buying my first Carnegie dinosaurs, I never heard of or saw Battat dinosaurs. Throughout the mid 2000’s I...

Euplocephalus (Galileo Hernandez)

Ankylosaurus (Tyco)
Time now to jump into the WABAC Machine and take a trip to 1988. It was a good time to be a kid or a collector. GI Joe and Transformers were still going strong, Barbie and Lego were around as always,...
