Apatosaurus Maquette

[Kinggink]

Got mine at Sideshowtoy.com too. Did pay 60 € taxes, that's as spectacular as the dino's box.

Hello, Robban! The problem is that this site is in the U.S. and expensive shipment to Romania. I thought that the site is in Europe

I think it will be difficult to obtain this item without having to pay lots of money for shipping. The box is very large and it is quite heavy as well. IIRC I payed some 90$ for shipping. Expensive, but I think it is still worth it.
I don't know where to order one in Europe, I'm afraid! Good luck!

More pics of the Apatosaurus Maquette. I've added a 1/24 scale car for size comparison. The maquette is probably in the same or similar scale as well. It was a huge animal!

Robban Hello! There is no problem with this dinosaur appears in Europe in early September and transport is 35 euros. I have no patience, but for a few days can expect to get Apatosaurus
PS: Glad to see your pictures are beautiful! Can someone make a movie, a few minutes)?

I always felt the Dinosauria line was closer to 1/12 scale, but I'm sure other members may know better than myself.

I think they are all in different scales.

 

[dansdinosaurs]

Yes, they are in different scales. For example, the Tyrannosaurus and Apatosaurus are about 1:20 (nice pairing choice for photos, although they obviously never lived together) while the Protoceratops vs. Velociraptor is closer to 1:5.

 

[Kinggink]

About scales I did some maths and found :
Apatosaurus : 1/19
T. Rex = 1/23
Styracosaurus = 1/14
Tupuxuara = ??

I'll post soon in the "show your shelves" category, but I can't resist to show you my set up (which has evolved already) :

Hope you enjoy it

 

[Dyscrasia]

Wow, I love those comparison pics with the T.rex maquette~

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Putting the two of them side by side reminds me of the Land Before Time and Littlefoot's mom battling the Sharptooth. ;D

 

[Agent0028]

Aww, I loved that movie growing up...

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Same here ! ;D

Been waiting for a nice collectible piece from that film as well..Disney does tons of merchandise..but you don't see much from Bluth's films. The LBT though is the most popular now I think..you would figure one statue maybe of all the main cast would be do-able. :/

I wish I had the puppets Pizza Hut did many, many years ago.

Mine arrived with the box all beat up but nothing was damaged.

I remember those. Nothing beats sticking your hand up the rear of a baby dinosaur.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I wish I had the puppets Pizza Hut did many, many years ago.

I have the whole set somewhere.. I also got the poster and and enlarged animation cels they used to for advertising. Pretty sweet ! ;D

Just a reminder, Dinosaur Revolution starts tomorrow ( Sept 4th ) on Discovery Channel !

[Agent0028]

I'll have to add that to my DVR to start recording. Hopefully they'll replay last nights episode sometime.

Hello everyone! If you have time, put as many pics with Apatosaurus I liked very much, pictures of nature with Apatosaurus.
PS: I can not understand why it takes so long to reach Europe. I'm thinking more seriously, to buy, Sideshow's Dinosauria Diorama model vs Protoceratops. Velociraptor. What is your opinion ,worth?

 

[Agent0028]

I think it's a pretty good dio, but not as good as the Deinosuchus or Allosaurus dios. Over all I'm glad I have it.

 

[tupuxuara]

Thanks for the reply! About Deinosuchus , I saw and read, not too great thing about this statue: (
