I see many ask "which figure is better, ____ or ____ ?"
In response, I've decided to turn that very thing into a series.
For our first episode, I will go over several Deinocherius figures, and review the up and downsides of each. Which one is best? You decide!
1. SAFARI LTD DEINOCHERIUS
Pros:
The color scheme is very unique and well done.
Tons of detail packed in
Dynamic and calm pose
Well-proportioned
Not shrink-wrapped at all, properly chunky.
Cons:
VERY small compared to other models, around the size of the Schleich Utahraptor.
Incredibly shaggy, maybe a bit too much feathering.
Tail fan is too small
2. COLLECTA DEINOCHERIUS
Pros:
HUGE, around 1:35 scale
Interesting colors
Decent amount of detail
Good proportions reflect modern studies
Cons:
Feathering may be a little too sparse
Attached to base
Not chunky enough for the animal, possibly even a little too thin.
Very awkward pose
3. PNSO DEINOCHERIUS
Pros:
Incredible detail, best of anything on this list
The colors are exciting and well-done
Many well-blended patterns.
Accurate proportions, no shrinkwrapping, and reflects modern studies.
Cons:
The detail goes down heavily on the neck
Paint chips off very easily. The slightest topple and tons of paint comes off
Extremely expensive, the priciest out of anything on this list
Patterns stand out less in the final product.
In conclusion, which one do you find the best?
