Scientifically Accurate Dinosaur Toys

If $5,000 are raised in 17 days, they'll be released.

They're made by the same person who designed the Dewback for the remastered version of A New Hope, and also worked on Pacific Rim and some Godzilla movies.

They're 1:6 scale, with 26 points of articulation and apparently sturdy enough for little kids to play with.

And I want one. Or ten.

He also made the near mythical "Jurassic Joe" dinosaurs, of which only the Allosaurus and Pachyrhinosaurus saw release. Easily among the best Jurassic Park figures and the best post JP/// without question.

Well that was a quick fund.

I really hope that Adasaurus' stretch goal gets reached (given how quick this has been, seems likely). Love me some ornate hawk eagles.

This is certainly very welcome news! In general I find there's an annoying lack of scientifically-accurate dinosaur toys that aren't just immobile figurines.

The crazy part was like the last time I viewed it, it needed around $5,000 or so to go. It's crazy how it zoomed up to over the goal :)

Even though they've surpassed their goal I'm still backing. The Saurornitholestes and Balaur concept arts are stunning so I'd love to see them made. Plus accurate dinosaur figures. I need.

Judging by the rate pledges are coming in, I'm betting they'll have the Saurornitholestes, Balaur, AND Adasaurus all backed by Friday.

I'd have pledged but the shipping prices internationally are killer. I'll definitely buy at least one though when they hit online stores.

This. If the model looks as cool as the concept art, I will DEFINITELY buy it.

I really can't wait until larger Theropods are made. I'll buy the heck out of a Tyranno or Carno

Well both Saurornitholestes and Balaur have been unlocked, seemingly in a single day.

Called it.

We'll have Adasaurus unlocked tomorrow, at the very latest.

So, four days later and we've gone well past Adasaurus and unlocked Dromaeosaurus, Acheroraptor AND Zhenyuanlong as well. And lemme tell you, the concept for the Dromaeosaurus look INCREDIBLE. Next up- Pyroraptor and Linheraptor!
