D is for Dinosaurs Again

I still have a bunch of Dinosaur posts in their section of the queue (year 2028 in Picasa!), and since trying to clear them back at the start of the year have added several more posts, this among them, I even shot some capsule dino's yesterday which I will try to get out before the end of RTM, which started well but has slowed . . . too much real life and two days without Internet (BT claim it's nothing to do with them but the fact that the 'signal' was off from midnight Friday to midnight last night suggests something deliberate and scheduled!), anyway, these are still in The Works;

Dinosaur Adventures; a bit pricey at three-quid really, but, well . . . "Cost of living crisis" and all that, and they seem to be re-moulds from ancient, 1970's, 'gape mouth', chinasaur tools, and it's the second current set of such we've looked at recently - Third image down - so clearly demand for cheap dino's from little people is driving a search through the old tool-banks in the old colony's older makers!

Of course my favorite is the Dimetrodon, while the kerthunkersaurus is the weakest by a country-mile! Any or all previous markings have been removed from the tool with a grinder, and a new, neat 'China' has been added to the resulting smooth patch.

That's them, six cheapo' chinasaurs, in a stable PVC-replacement polymer, for three of your Earth pounds, that's fifty-pee each and a free bag! Out there now - The Works!
