>>6180360Am I the only one who are bummed at his refusal to make 1/12th scale, truly articulated dinosaur?
The Kenner JP T-rex came out in like 1993 and a whopping 24 years later it is still the undisputed king of big bad playable T-rex. Even then, the Red Rex is not really 1/12th, more like 1/15th scale (it is 1/18th technically, but T-rex in jurassic park are slightly oversized).
NECA were able to sell deluxe figures such as Queen Alien and the 1/4 scale figures at 100 bucks a piece no problem. If it's just the Big Bad ~2ft long T-rex I'm sure a lot of people would shell out the $100. At $45-60 pricepoint like the upcoming Ceraptosian line feels kind of like half measures. I hated when KS toys had to be a "wave" with many unlockable stretch goals and mold reuse. Why don't Kickstart it just item by item, and make it more popular with the general public like $100 a piece bigass T-rex, then $100 a piece bigass Triceratops for companion piece so potential backers aren't stretched thin between variants and subspecies of only real paleoenthusiast would know.
