The "dinosaurs" are roughly about 3 inches tall/long. Made of standard hard plastic with minimal paint apps. Seven in all, but I wonder if more may or may not exist. They have Hong Kong stamps on 'em. Very similar to the other easier to find Hong Kong dinosaur monsters of the 80s...you know, the ones the creator of Dungeons and Dragons ripped off?
Here are the very monster-like dinosaurs loose. I just LOVE these damn things...right up may alley. I think I may or may not have seen some of these before at random intervals of time, maybe mixed in lots on eBay or in other people's collections.
Very loosely based off of the usual dinosaur toy suspects.
The first grey guy is fairly tame looking...just an odd sculpt of a generic biped dinosaur of some kind. The green triceratops thing is awesome...has extra fins and horns, and just looks plain cool. The brown finned guy is easily based off of a dimetrodon, only the head is more dragon-like. The silver Godzilla-esque guy almost caught me as a giant sloth until I got this in hand...reminds me of a kaiju knock off, like the Super Dino Monsters...sweet! The other brown creature looks like a demonic cross between a triceratops and a bulldog. The green dragon looks like...uh...a dragon. Doesn't seem to be inspired by a known dinosaur, necessarily. Last is this freakish grey thing. Another biped dino-monster. Very humanoid and monsterish. Hard to pick a fave, but this guy is close. Just look and that creeper face, webbed claws, and armored hide. Pure beauty!
Glad to snag these. If anyone has any variations or similar looking beasties, be sure to share! I'd love to see 'em.
