2015 was a great year for this company with some wonderful releases such as Ceratosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus, and Utahraptor, etc...
Rebor has said they are planning on releasing a living male Triceratops (King Trident - part of their "Revenge" diorama), a species of Allosaurus (Ravage), and a Brachiosaurus! They are also planning on releasing juvenile dinosaurs and their adult counterparts too! The mere thought of all this has me excited! But here are the latest pics and teases the company has revealed in the past couple of months.....
We already seen these which are due later this month....
Guess we'd better to reveal something from next year: REBOR 1:35 Scout Series wave 01, coming in Spring 2016. We will keep this series going, for each existing REBOR adult dinosaur there will be a juvenile for you, the sculpting and paint of these little fellows will be as beautiful as the adult version, and if you spot a new species, that means mummy or daddy is coming! Of course we won't forget the diorama bases, the environments will match the bases of their adult version, it's all about mix and match to create the unique diorama of your own, so ladies and gentlemen, have fun!
Also: Act One: The Hero (Hercules the Acrocanthosaurus); Act Two: The Reward (2/3 Ceryneian Hind the Tenontosaurus); Act Three: The Challenge (???)

We are lucky you're posting REBOR news here. The company used to do it but due to the non dino oriented nature of most of our community, they probably moved away because of the lack of feedback. That's comprehensive but not fair once we created a section to the brand on forum and we also created a dedicated page on Toy Animal Wiki. Anytime I see anything new from this company, I get always impressed. I don't use to like very much pterosaur figures, they look all fantasy to me, I know these creatures were surely very strange looking but I think that this dimimorphodon rendition is very organic and convincing. The level of detail seems superb as usual and it also shows some modularity. It is also evident that they want to expand their range what I think is a fantastic news to collectors of prehistoric figures. Thanks for keeping us updated about that fabulous company!

You are welcome Roger! I love this company! I will try and message them in hopes they will eventually return to this forum. They were treated very politely and with respect here. If we can get enough enthusiasm going in these threads, maybe that will encourage them to do so?!
Speaking of new products, I almost forgot about this....
We are planning a entirely new line called “REBOR Oddities”, it will be the gathering of collectibles that related to fossils, specimens, fetus and other unusual elements; real glass, brass, wood and even liquid will be used to decorate these extraordinary models to create vintage feelings, then a little touch of modern technology will be applied such as LED lights or even USB cables!
This product line is still at the planning stage and we have no idea of what we can actually create, although the first product could related to this 1:50 Tylosaurus proriger fossil replica (yes, the one on the poster is a 1:50 prototype sculpture), which is inspired by one of the most famous and complete Mosasaur specimen. Anyway, we will show you something amazing, in time.
We will offer the most crazy ideas, most exquisite concept arts, most unique designs and most bizarre products to fans and collectors. Welcome to REBOR Carnival and it’s time for the FREAKSHOW!
There hasn't been any new word on this line for a while now. Sounds interesting and unique. I just hope they didn't scrap the idea which has been rumored.
Thank you for posting the news here, it is great to hear about Rebor again They surprised me last year with amazing and detailed models and quickly became my favourite dinosaur brand. I can´t wait for this new Dimorphodon and Triceratops bull, they are definitely on my wishlist! I hope they will make Velociraptor and Stegosaurus too ...

You are welcome Saien. I'm happy to pass on the info.
Time will tell for a Velociraptor, however with the teaser image of a Stegosaurus juvenile recently, Rebor themselves said all babies will have an adult counterpart. I'm hoping that maybe they'll be released together as a set? I know a Rebor style Stegosaur is going to look amazing!!!

That's very kind from you, I don't believe our community will ever turn very dino oriented, DTF is an excellent forum for dino collectors and they almost absorbed all dinofans. We here talk about all kind of animals what may be somewhat distracting for those more concentrated in that popular hobby of collecting prehistoric figures. Though, we are as much interested in dinos as in any other kind of animals so it is always good to be informed. These fossils seem to be very good ideas, I believe most would love more dinosaur traditional figures but I think these may represent a good alternative around the same collecting area.

Rebor just hinted on their Facebook page that someone is coming this Easter season. I wonder if they are also hinting on more than one item? Stay tuned.....
I recall in the past Rebor saying they will be releasing at least 5 new animal replicas each year. I wonder if Easter time will be their full reveal for 2016?
REBOR also informed me about the same, 5 new figures each year and I believe they will keep the tradition of releasing hunters, so your wish is almost a certainty. :) Eh, what's that! It is a very organic thing, do you think it serves as a meal?
I hope you're not only sharing these news for me, I believe that although I am the only posting, I believe there are more watching. I want to thank you again for sharing all these great news with us. These hatchlings are really great!

You are welcome Roger!
I'm going to try and keep up with ol' Rebor for everyone. I'll be posting future walk-around of their hatchings, egg nests, etc; in the future.
I broke my leg recently at work and its hard for me to get around too much at the moment.
It appears the new 1/6 Velociraptor hatchings (9 variations in all) will come in "blind" packs! Meaning you won't know what you're getting until after you open it! "Blind" packs are often popular with younger children and similar items can be found in your local department stores pertaining to things like, "Poke'Mon", "Minecraft," "My Little Pony"; etc. Again, fun and surprise for the child but frustrating for the completionist.

You are welcome Roger. My recovery has been slow but progressing. You don't realize how important your health is until something like this happens. Right now, my right leg feels like I'm dragging a heavy club! Thank you for asking.

Oops. Almost forgot. Here is the first review of the upcoming Rebor Dimorphodons 'Punch and Judy' set available in a few weeks. (I'm excited!)
I've just comment your video on the REBOR 1:6 Dimorphodon, 1:35 Acrocanthosaurus, Dead Triceratops, Nests, and Baby Raptors topic.
Would you mind if I merge the two topics, I think it would be less confusing.

Arrrhw ! What a nuissance, - I HATE "Blind" packs A very wrong strategy from Rebor. I am sure that relatively few children collect them, because of the price
Sorry to hear about your broken leg, dear Wayne I hope you will soon be well, and recover completely !!!
I am glad Susanne and Christophe posted here too. I was sure they were also watching the topic. Yes, sometimes we forget to treasure the fact of being healthy and we only remember how good it is when we are not. I wish all luck to your recovery. :) Thanks for videos about dimorphodons, I love especially Mr. Punch, such detailed and great looking figure, lizard with the lady is an interesting extra. I haven't understood it on video, do you know if the lizard intends to represent a particular species that lived allong dimorphodons? About the blind boxes, I agree with Susanne, it may be a wrong strategy to a company that works in a relatively high-leveled range of prices.

Thank you Susanne and Roger for your kind words. I had a visit with my surgeon today and so far, things are healing on schedule. However, it will still be a while before I'll be able to put weight on it.
As for Rebor, they announced today that the blind boxes can be purchased as a full set! That was a relief for me to hear. No prices have been announced yet and we can expect to see them in March.
