    I'm 50/50 between the two. Out of sight out of mind for the most part.

    Which ones are you all getting? I went for: saurornitholestes (both schemes), dromaeosaurus (both schemes), Adasaurus, and the Atrociraptor.

    Anyone else receive theirs?

    I think they’re awesome. I hope he expands the line past ceratopsians.

    I really wish I was able to back this when it was on Kickstarter. Does anyone know how many Kickstater exclusives there were? I thought I heard there would be a blue colored exclusive.

    There was a blue raptor, though curiously I haven’t seen much of it, only available during the Kickstarter. It’s a Velociraptor colored like a blue jay.

    Guys, how does this work? Can anyone educate me?

    i. How much must I commit to get the 27-inch Dino Riders (homage) T-Rex?

    I) If all you want is the Dino Riders homage T-rex, you'd pledge for Reward 7 at $210 (plus shipping).

    II) If you only pledge for that rex, you'll only get that one rex. You can add on to your original pledge when other tyrannosaurs are unlocked if you see something else you like.

    Also, whatever amount you pledge will be collected at the end of the Kickstarter, but you won't get the dinosaur(s) until sometime next year, as these funds are used to make the figures. After the Kickstarter, you'll still be able to pre-order additional tyrannosaurs (at a slightly higher price) through the Backerkit.

    Not sure what level to go in at. Looks like the standard colors are available at both 1/35 and 1/18 scale, while special addition has a different color scheme for either scale.

    Does the Add On price they list include shipping? 1/18 Special Edition is $210, but it's Add on price is $220.

    Yeah, the Add On prices include shipping, because you're adding on to a previous Reward which has its own shipping.

    Thanks! But will there be a situation where I pledge $210 for the green t-rex and it doesn’t unlock? If so will I get a refund?

    The green rex isn’t a stretch goal, it’s a separate pledge level. It’s happening unless the project somehow didn’t fund.
