>>>Good News! Been talking with Chap Mei...Original DinosaurToyForum link here...
http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=9481.msg288032#new>>Chap Mei have said they are looking into the future possibility of producing more accurate Dinosaur and Prehistoric animal figures. >>to quote them: "I have talked with R&D department before and they are very interest about accurate dinosaur and sea animals"
and
"yea! Indeed ! We are thinking of it"
this would mean more accurate 1:18th animals in chap mei's iconic style, which would be fantastic.
>>>i have, as you may know, already been designing some animals for chap mei that they are working with currently, but this would mean in future i would be able to design more accurate versions of iconic animals we are used to seeing be made, (Tyrannosaurids, Sauropods, Dromaeosaurs) but with iconic colour schemes from things like the Walking With franchise... (who wouldn't want a big Al action figure with non pronated wrists and more accurate anatomy?? or a WWD Utahraptor with feathers and wings??)>>as well as animals we don't often see made into toys, let alone action figures (xenacanthus, ambulocetus, and secodontosaurus just to name a few...)>>this is all down to audience reaction though, you guys come in by simply commenting here with positive feedback to this idea that i can give back to them! the more the better, and feel free to share this around too!thanks ever so much!!
so does anyone think this is legit or real, cause I'd be do ow n if Chap mei was actually going to up their game and tackle something like this and I'm sure you lads wouldn't mind seeing this be a thing too kind of tired of Mattel Jurassic at this point and I'd love to see another company compete in that arena even though they are owned by Mattel it would be interesting to see something like BBC Walking with Dinosaur style figures for sure.
