I had occasion to stop at one of the few independent convenience-stores/corner shops the other evening (Lower Bourne, Farnham/Aldershot hinterlands - dodgy part of the world!), with the intention of grabbing a fizzy drink, and I came away with two BJ's . . . ooh'err missus!
The ones on the left look like a larger set we saw a few years ago, as a generic, stiff polyethylene hollows, pegged together (pegging and BJ's; it gets worse!), while the others look like those kids comic ones, but will probably turn out to be from a more common two-colour (plastic and one paint, sprayed) mini's set. They don't have the dotted-in eyes of the comic ones, either.
The trio is actually on a smaller card, and having had this stuff rather trashed (for understandable reasons) in the comment the other day, I now feel slightly guilty posting them, but a blog needs copy, preferably new copy, and while these posts aren't my finest hour, they are what they are, and if you like/collect Dinosaurs, these are both out there now.
The shop also had an 'army-man' set, but it was one of those sets with a rigid 4" figure, two 54mm'ish Matchbox copies and some travesty of an over-scaled, inaccurate Jeep or something, I mentally rejected it before I'd fully noted the contents!
