Wow, I see these crazy colored dinos for the first time too :) Congratulations, they are very charming  

Thanks Andreas and Susanne! 

I find them crazy colored  too, Ana.  They're not really that realistic. Hahahaha...

Well, we don`t know, do we ?
I wonder what somebody would make out of fossiles of for instance a zebra, giraffe, Prevost`s squirrel, paradise bird etc.... not to mention many tropical fish !

I love colourful models of prehistoric critters

You're right Susanne, but according to the new book of Gregory S. Paul, although I have not read the book entirely, the colors on some dinosaurs can be determined.

That is amazing and great

I must start googling some...look, I already found this guy :

I think nobody expected a dino to look like this, 20 years ago

Thanks for sharing Susanne!  I am really learning a lot here.

I really loved your Sega collection, that is truly impressive!!!    The only Sega I have is their rare Kentrosaurus, which is this fella:

It came with that Torosaurus as a Two pack, I gave the Torosaurus to Tyrantqueen some time ago as a gift   

Very cool dinos! That Invicta tail-dragging Rex is somehow an immensely graceful figurine. The Sega models seem ever so awesome - I like both Ceratopsians and bright-coloured dino renditions especially, and that Torosaurus makes me droool...

Thanks Andreas!  

Ok Susane! Here are some of the things I know about Hayakawa. They are a toy company in Japan, probably a small one and their dinosaur toys are listed in Dinosauriana (I mean as a company making or releasing dinosaurs).

This is the second time I've seen a batch of them, so most probably, they are only sold in Japan. They measure around 1-2 inches in length and probably made in 2010, according to this:

Thanks Ana! :)

Hi Tylo! In fact, when I saw your Kentro, I immediately wanted to have one. So, I was ecstatic when I saw one at our Toy Convention here!  

Wow! Thanks for the info regarding that 2-pack. I never knew it was a 2 pack. Saw them loose, bought the Torosaurus and left behind the Kentro, which was lacking one leg.  

Thanks koniminiatures! I can't resist Invicta's charm specially when they a priced right. I like my Happinets more than the Segas. I have plans of completing the Happinet line. 

My catches for today:

Great catches:-)

Thanks again, Andreas! You seem to be always the first to see my new acquisitions. :) :) 

Dammit, now I want the Ankylosaurus too.  Congrats on your new finds!

Thanks Sumo! I've read somewhere that you teach these things at school. Would love to learn a few things (maybe a lot) from you.

What books would you recommend? TIA! :)

I enjoy how simple is this ankylo...

Schleich Brachiosaurus - 2002

I maybe wrong, but I believe this is a Kaiyodo Dinoland 1/100 scale Allosaurus. It is made of resin and only labeled Allosaurus under the base.

TFL!
