In addition, the Tyrannosaurus with prey (Struthiomimus) model is having a base fitted. This will make the original T. rex with prey model that was launched last year a rare collectible in years to come. Those clever people at Collecta have fitted a base to this model that allows it to fit with the bases that can be found on the Williamsonia and the Monathesia and Cycadeoidae tree models.

It looks like 2013 is going to be another exciting year for Collecta.
Collecta figures this year are interesting beyond excellent, the only downside I see these replicas are delayed and arrive to lag behind the date “in theory” arrival of these animals probably best with the Safari brand as for authenticity.
Another drawback I see some figures that are not marketed in Europe and fully in this regard in Belgium, Spain, I mean trees and Monanthesia Williamsonia and Cycadeoidea and families and Hysilophodon Koreaceratops dinosaur, which is a shame because the collectors can not have these products in our respective nations.
Moreover, I have observed throughout my life and I am no longer a child precisely that dinosaur replicas are slow release and marketed much more than wild animals, which means for me to have a great deal of patience. But anyway it seems a little sadistic to be left on all the best figures for the end of the year.
Anyway though this year is not like any other in terms of the number of production figures, I have improved a lot compared to the previous year was a real success in the perfection of his figures, and rivaling in its own right podium with other companies of dinosaurs, and besides this is the first Undertaker

Anyway though this year is not like any other in terms of the number of production figures, I have improved a lot compared to the previous year was a real success in the perfection of his figures, and rivaling in its own right podium with other companies of dinosaurs, and otherwise it is the first company that has made avant-garde figures as I said, not only in terms of models and previously never made it as far as the poses of the dinosaurs, as in this Daspletosaurus case. Furthermore the Deinotherium, luxury is a figure, in their perfection. I hope next year is better in terms of the number of figures of Collecta, why in terms of quality, there is no objection.
