    These things are great Dino-Riders reborn

    I added some paint on mine and got 2 that were missing parts.

    I mentioned them in the Diaclone KO thread. I feel the same way. The Dianauts are perfectly scaled riders i believe but i haven't seen them dinos next to a Mega Construx figure yet.

    No codes that I've been able to find. The T-Rex is noticeably heavier though. I've managed to get 9 of the 13 but now I'm pulling a ton of dupes trying to get those last 4.

    I haven't found codes either I want the Plesiosaurs it seems like it should be heavy too.

    The only duplicate I have got is the skeleton Triceratops.

    The Plesiosaur is actually pretty light and made a lot more rattling sounds when I shook the ball (caused by the small fins)

    These look pretty cool, but the fixed poses for the head and tail will keep me from picking one or two up to check them out.

    My wallet is relieved. :lol

    I think that would probably be an easy fix. The heads and tails are usually on ball joints but the ball has a plastic ridge that corresponds to the socket shape (so kids can put them in right?). If you trim that ridge off of the ball with an exacto knife it will free up the full range of the joint

    I had the Stegosaurus for five minutes before shooting myself directly in the eye. Seriously. Lol.

    I was positioning his cannons and my thumb hit the trigger, and it got me pointblank in the eye. Well, I'm sold on them! These are much nicer than I was expecting, will definitely be picking up more!

    Would it be a good idea to start up trading dupes in this thread?

    I wish I need those Plesiosaurs

    They still haven't answered me about my missing parts though.

    If I had the spare dough I totally would taken them off your hands.

    I guess the Skeleton Spinosaurus is the only one with the cool skull missiles? I was hoping all the skeletons would have them.

    Yeah, it's crazy they all have unique gear, I figured they'd reuse missiles at least.
