Could the seller have possibly used a more 'migraine-inducing' background!?!? ;)

Looks like a few different toylines in the last pic.

Many of them do look like they're Ninja Mites. Also includes some dinosaurs that are constantly knocked off from old Marx-style dinos, and weird ninjas/warriors I don't recognize.

There are several Ninja Mites in there but much to the dismay of many of the collectors here looking for them he will not ship internationally.

Those Dinos are Timee or MPC...not Marx and not even Marx knock offs or re-issues. Just thought I would add this in case anyone here collects or starts collecting Marx Dinos. :p

Well, I did say Marx-style, not Marx copy or recast or anything like that, because I've had too much trouble attempting to keep straight what company made which style of figures, and then you have all the recast and bootleg nonsense to go along with it. Not an unfair assumption when some of these dinosaurs got packaged alongside other dinosaur styles either.

Since you brought it up, I looked it up and confirmed exactly which ones they are: 1970s style Timmee. Posted Image

But when I said that, I was only thinking of the yellow Tyrannosaurus and Trachodon. The blue Dimetrodon actually looks exactly like the Marx style, but the colors definitely point to being a recast. The body shape and curvature do not match the MPC Dimetrodon upon closer inspection, but the biggest clue was the rear legs - the MPC has puny ones that are bent backwards, not forwards. It's definitely not a smooth Timmee like the other two, I can tell you that from having owned and loved those little guys over the course of 20+ years, and the other (hideous) Timmee Dimetrodons are almost nothing like it.

those caveman figs are the tops. i especially love the boulder thrower on top of the hill.
