A few pics of my moving my models boxes around:
Still have a few left to get up on the shelf like the Woolly Mammoth, another Three Horned, another 1st series Neanderthal version w/Allosaurus head in image art and 5 or 6 othersLast edited by wyldpny; Dec 5, '09, 11:50 PM.Capt.

I am still so amazed at just how much bigger the T-Rex model is over the rest of the Aurora dino models:

How? Why? How can anyone keep the boxes of their toys? I don't get it, but that's so awesome!! Very cool collection you have.Those who look outside dream. Those who look within awake.
Samples of my work are found here: Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness
To do list:
1:6 boots for Mathilda, 1:1 Romulan Commander outfit, Ursus helmet; Cornelius appliance

Really nice. I loved the Tiger and the Tar Pit. Moebius models makes reissues of the Aurora Monster Scenes models with retro box art. Maybe they will do the PS as well someday.Comment

A couple of years ago Moebius was going to start making repro Prehistoric Scenes kits. There was a preorder available on most modeling websites, but apparently there wasn't enough interest in the first kit (Jungle Swamp) and it got cancelled.
As most know, Revell now sells a few of these kits, but not in repro boxes. They can be found in most model kit stores.

WOW !!!
What an amazing collection ! I had a few of these as a kid, but most of them bit the dust in battles against Megos and GI joe adventure Team guys.
Do you own the miniature set of these the issued about 10 or so years ago ? In one small box they had Allosaurus, Dimetrodon, Pteranodon, Triceratops, and I think, the Styracosaurus as well, They were prepainted, and around 2" tall when assembled.
Plus they had all the same moving parts as the originals, it's like they actually shrunk the original kits.Chris
Keepin' it Mego-ey !Comment

Actually, it was 16 years ago that those came out.
1994.
Aurora Prehistoric Scenes Models - Mini Dinosaurs
Luckily around 2001 I found someone who had a local TRU that still had them hanging on the pegs. And he got a set of them for me.
Because these go for stupid money when they turn up on ebay.
$12-25 each usually.
Which is more than what you can find the full sized reissues for.Comment

Sadly I have not yet been able to obtain the mini dino versions. But as we all know the hunt is at least half the fun

Darned, I missed them :(

...no reason to be down about it so here are a few close ups of some of my loose painted models:

I really like your color schemes on the trike and the rex.
Nice clean jobs with color selections not used a ton by others.
They both work very well.Comment

Your paint jobs on these are really outstanding and it truly brings them to life. I also love the fact that Aurora still kind of gave them a "monster-ish" look rather than the generic politically correct Smithsonian dino appearance that most of all models and toys have nowadaysDarned, I missed them :(
