Even as far as robo-dinosaurs, they're definitely leagues below Dinamation's robosaurs.<br /><br />My reaction to that Pterosaur picture was the precise thought "Somewhere, Mark Witton is crying"David Prushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08104560902599373673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-31861370571807686402014-03-08T21:43:34.288-05:002014-03-08T21:43:34.288-05:00I took one look at this, crawled under my bed, and...I took one look at this, crawled under my bed, and started to cry....it really feels so upsetting to see something like this in the 21st Century...sigh....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00682119714054103398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-31902360328780516692014-03-06T19:44:29.730-05:002014-03-06T19:44:29.730-05:00My reaction to these models:

If you ever wanted to see those dreadful CG creations writ large and robotic, here's your chance. Certainly, there's a similar degree of scientific fidelity going on here."<br /><br />I've seen those "Robosaurs" b-4 & that's just what I thought then. Many thanks for the reminder to review said book on Amazon.<br /><br />-Hadiazraptor_044https://www.blogger.com/profile/10538231485096397412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-6942272073178348022014-03-04T12:30:21.811-05:002014-03-04T12:30:21.811-05:00This came to the California Bay area last year and...This came to the California Bay area last year and is suuuuper fun! and adults are cheaper then kids.

I'm also off to Rotterdam in a month or so, and if it's still there, will make a point of going over to point and laugh.Fionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14676089996920568096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107291904794625632.post-72634400733133836272014-03-04T04:50:32.689-05:002014-03-04T04:50:32.689-05:00"This is the sort of sight the likes of which..."This is the sort of sight the likes of which is liable to make pterosaur researches break down into gibbering, broken shells of human beings, before dousing their eyes with concentrated bleach and welcoming the searing pain and onset of blindness as a distraction from ever having witnessed such an abomination of utterly failed palaeo-reconstruction."<br />I have been wondering wether anyone external has access to me webcam. I guess that question's answered then. And you didn't even mention the Pteranodon that is shown on their website with its scaly hide and hands sprouting from the wing fingers (how does that even... what?).<br />Done giggling and bleaching, I also realized (or at least think I did) that this... thing looks to be the exact same frame as the "Microraptor".<br /><br />I'll be checking this show out when it comes near here.
