    Need help searching for some rack toys. (bagged dinosaurs0

    I'm not really a rack toy collector, so I don't really know the best places to look.
    I've tried searching ebay and google and keep coming up completely dry.
    So, I figured I would ask here, the best way to go about my search. Figure some of you might be able to point me to better spots to look, or maybe better search strings to use.

    What I am looking for, are a couple of bagged plastic dinosaur sets from Joy Toys.





    It's not really the contest that I want to find though.
    I want them for the packaging, as they use images from the Aurora Prehistoric Scenes box art.

    So, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Might be because you missed them. On eBay I did a search for "joy toy" under the toys category. In this case INCLUDE the quotes because it will search for exact term. It pulled up rack toy trucks, soldiers. However I then searched "completed auctions" and on page 2 of that it pulled up the bottom picture of the Dinos you are after. Perhaps contacting that seller (since it went unsold for only 9.99, that auction ended on May 23) might be an option

    the link below (fixed) is for that completed Auction:

      Thanks for that.
      I saw the one that sold back in April.

      I keep forgetting that ebay split up the 'completed' and 'sold' listings. (wish they would just leave things alone)
      I did send that seller a message. Waiting on a reply.

      I thought, when I only saw the one from 2 months ago, that these didn't turn up all that often. Or I was just looking in the wrong place.

        Well hope you get them. There was another that sold for 25$ (ending a little after that other one) but the dinos inside were a pink color.
