FigureFocus 313 Dinowaurs Series 1 Aucasaurus

Back again with a short one…because I won’t have much to say about it. This is the second time I am looking at a figure from the Dinowaurs Survival series. If you took a quick glance, you might think it’s the same figure as that Monolophosaurus…maybe just a darker photograph? No, this time it’s Aucasaurus,Continue reading “FigureFocus 313 Dinowaurs Series 1 Aucasaurus”

FigureFocus 312 Safari Incredible Creatures Koi Fish (Yamabuki Ogon)

Just in time for summer and pond season (where I am anyway) today is the Safari Incredible Creatures Koi Fish, item 266329.

FigureFocus 311 Yowies Lost Kingdom Imperial Ammonite

FigureFocus 310 Bullyland Gomphotherium

So here’s a fun figure from a line I haven’t talked about enough. Another figure from the Bullyland Naturkundemuseum Stuttgart Prehistoric Mammal line. As I’ve said, this was a wonderful series with a relatively broad (especially for the late 90s) diversity of Cenozoic prehistoric animals (admittedly, all but one were mammals). This figure, the GomphotheriumContinue reading “FigureFocus 310 Bullyland Gomphotherium”

FigureFocus 309 Shapeways 3D Printed Diplocaulus

Well, let’s go back to a prehistoric animal, and a 3D-printed one no less. This is another Shapeways model, from creator mmfrankford. The specific model is their take on Diplocaulus, the famous and popular boomerang-head ‘amphibian’ from the late Palaeozoic. As I’m sure I mentioned before, I used to grab a bunch of Shapeways figuresContinue reading “FigureFocus 309 Shapeways 3D Printed Diplocaulus”
