Sorry, this is the best I can manage.

"Mama?"

 

[Jeremy K9]

That's good enough for me. Just enough to wet the appetite.

Did the colors and detailing match the proto this time around ?

A few notes:

-The Sideshow Spinosaurus is more than twice the size of the Papo Spinosaurus.
-The unpacking of this statue was particularly messy (at least for me) with styrofoam bits going everywhere. I recommend opening it outside, even though the styrofoam litter may result in two-headed toads growing in your local ecosystem five years from now.
-The base is amazing! There are two additional sets of trackways, and even a broken stem where the Spino's foot recently stomped.
-The base is, presumably for space-saving purposes, hidden within a styrofoam compartment that must be removed. It will make you feel like Indiana Jones, or an impoverished James Bond.
-This is the longest piece yet to appear in the Dinosauria line, so make sure you can accommodate! I look forward to your Rex vs. Spino fantasy face-off photos.

I'm a bit nervous about being able to fit this bad boy on my book shelf.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I wish it was Monday!

I wish it were mid-Nov !

..no..wait then I would miss Halloween. OK..after Sunday I wish it were mid Nov..then I'd have the haunt stuff packed up, be paid and ordering this big girl !

yeah..that works. ;D

 

[Agent0028]

I'm all for mid-November, I can't wait for the holiday season.

 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I can wait for THAT ! lol

..shame I can't some rich relative to get it for me on my B-Day on the 12th.. lol ..but I tick off too many of them..

I should have received mine today along with the asian dinosaur dio (if it wasn't that damn hurricane)

But it'll be less than 10 days for them to arrive here

 

[Fremen]

Sorry for the cruddy pics. I can't take pics of these Dinos.
This guy is huge.

[dansdinosaurs]

I wouldn't call those "cruddy shots" at all. Nice collection there.

 

[Agent0028]

I really like the colors on his. I know others want to see more vibrancy in the dinos, but I really like the browns and greens with the subtle darker colors added in.

 

[LOTRFan]

It's a bigg'un; but I managed to get mine on the shelf -- just barely.

 

[Reinhardt]

Awesome pics! Can you take some pics next to the other dinos?

 

[Fremen]

I have all of the EXs of the dino line but they're all packed away due to lack of room. Someone else is going to have to take some shots with the others. I just packed this one away as well.
I need a bigger house.

 

[Jeremy K9]

Thanks for the shots Fremen. It looks like the colors match the prototype pretty well. Am I right?

Btw, congrats on getting Mr. Jack Sparrow aswell. Mine should arrive sometime in November.
