the left one has been repainted. I think that this model released in 1975, has been the model of the later Starlux second version (1985), here on the right side:

Great Collection Alain, the Invicta are really impressive and their realism was on top in the 70's.
The one I would love to catch is teh Dimetrodon but it's real pain to find one for a decent price.

Very interesting. The dreams of my childhood but there was no chancein the former GDR

Yes 40 euros on french ebay at this moment, and it is the smaller one!

Did you reconize your Itchyosaurus?

I discovered them in the Lyon Museum only in 1987 for they were only sold in the museums by these times in France and I had just bought the mammoth who fits so well with the Starlux 2nd version one! Later: in 1995 , I bought some for my sons in another museum but I repainted them because the painted versions were fare more expensive!.. :)

No

I like their simplified shapes and colours. With prehistoric animals, we often don't know the details about how they looked and what their colours were, so to see them in a more abstract form is rather nice. Were they made to scale?

Yes they were: 1/45 scale for terrestrial species. :)

You're right! I love the Diplo and the Brontosaurus (that I don't have)!
