My first go with one of these "bendy" action figures.

My takeaway is that I really like this Phantom of the Opera design and wish someone would make a proper action figure out of it. 'cause while this bendy figure is a neat concept, it's not really working as well as a proper figure would.

We used to have a Dinosaur toy thread, but it doesn’t seem to have been revived with the big reset.

Creative Beasts is FINALLY shipping (at least part) of my backer order of Cyberzoic! Given space and cost, I’ve been hesitant to buy into these sorts of big big Kickstarters, but Creative Beasts garnered a solid rep, and as a complete Dino-Rider mark? I backed it grabbing the Allosaurus set and the Archillobater set, but the big one for me was the Kickstarter exclusive Sabretooth tiger with Helena set. Not only is the beast and armor painted to evoke Dino-Riders, but Helena is clearly inspired by Serena (or the Ursus figure). Last I saw, the packaging was also going to be very evocative of Dino-Riders as well.

If any are interested, they are offering discounted prices on the initial preorders on their site, albeit without the Kickstarter exclusives

As an old Dino Riders junkie, that also appeals to me. I do like the transforming armor that is something when not attached to the dinos. That's a cool idea.

Nonnef has been teasing armor and riders for Jurassic Park dinosaur toys for a while now, too:

As an old fan of the Dinorider toyline and show, I like those Nonnef ones better. I need to make sure the wife doesn't throw away my kids old dino toys, and see if I can get some of those for them.

Nice! I'd like to get a good Alphonse some day, and maybe even Ota's unit 02. Unfortunately, most of the figures out there are from the movies, and I'd rather have the TV series versions. Although, it looks like yours is the TV deco, so I am definitely jealous!
