Tetrapodomorph – Fauna Figures

FigureFrenzy 300 Allosaurus, Anteater, Pantylus, Penguin

Been a bit distracted lately, but catching right back up...once again, with a very random assortment. Very. Broad range of quality, style, and taxonomy. Jurassic World FK mini Allosaurus (Walmart) Revisiting an almost monochrome figure from the Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom minis. This time it's the Allosaurus. A very gaunt, skinny dino. It's about 1:85 scale, so the explorer is pretty close. So we'll start with another mini figure from the Walmart Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom multi-pack (a few others can…

There are quite a…

Vault tales 109 – Clades – “Stegocephalia”

We'll work the photos from furthest back in the fossil record. This is a 3D printed Tiktaalik from Shapeways--sadly no longer available. The file didn't print quite right (there are gaps on the underside). It's about 1:23 scale with the guy there. The rear limbs were not published when the model was made, so they are too weak. But I am still glad to have it. So we're back with another 'clades' post, and this one is a very unique…
