Watching this after your review of the ITOY Carnotaurus, I competely understand your disappointment with the previous one. This shows how important a good paintjob is; a figure's material can be so noble, its details so intricate, if you don't manage to color it appropriately, all that will not be seen on the final result and thus wasted.

Exactly. I thought of doing a comparison with the ITOY at the end of this video, but decided it would be too vitriolic to do so. I think anyone who watched both videos can see for themselves. The amazing this is that when this Sideshow came out it was USD$180-200!! Absolutely astounding.

Great re-review! Glad you own this since you’re a big Carnotaurus fan. I hope looking at it eases the pain a bit from the last purchase.

It definitely did Michael! I had planned to do this after a few days break, but I had to exorcise that traumatic event as quickly as possible and I figure this would do it. It worked! It's astounding to me how relatively cheap these statues were... this one had I got it when it first appeared on the Sideshow preorder would have been USD$180!! Can you believe that?

I'm sorry to hear that Maddy. This is relatively small compared to most statues I've seen. Certainly in the Sideshow Dinosauria line. Everything after this became massive! This one is about 51cm (20in) long, and fits on one of my smaller shelves.

Excellent mate! I hope this video has helped erase the memory of the ITOY Carnotaurus I just put up, if you saw that! This is really a treasure and as my favourite dinosaur, if I ever sell off my collection, this will probably be the last one to go!

For me still the best sculpt of a carnotaurus ever. The pose and dynamics...perfect. Although the damtoys carno has even more detail this one is the better / more realistic artwork (in my opinion). Ps. Seeing now this 11 year old (or even more?) masterpiece after the damtoys fail ... just wow. I have 7 sideshow dinosauria statues now. Not the carno. Yesterday I said it's enough now...but this on .... ohhhh :)

Lol so you're one of the "serious collectors" I was referring to in the video! Yes the ITOY one was a horrible trainwreck. I'm not sure when you got into collecting Sideshows, but it's truly _astounding_ to me that when this Sideshow came up on preorder, it was USD$180! That is _unbelievable_ !

You're most welcome Rajitha! Carnotaurus is one of those dinosaurs I made an effort to learn a lot more about simply because it's my favourite dinosaur! The more I learnt the more interested I became and the more I liked it!😁

Great review! I'm lucky enough to own one myself. In my opinion, out of all the Sideshow dinosaur sculpts the Carnotaurus is the most detailed one. My favorite Sideshow Dinosauria is the Tyrannosaurus rex Maquette sculpted by David Krentz.
@DinosDragons3 жыл бұрын
I'm glad to hear that! The level of detail on this is indeed insane. Just look at the nails, the facial integument, the arms! Very very amazing sculpt. The David Krentz one you got is in my opinion the better of the two T Rexes they made. It's also super rare. Despite it's anatomical flaws by today's standards, if I could choose one, that would be the one to get. The other one had an amazingly drab paint job, and I didn't like the form as much.
@tidls3 жыл бұрын
I own the latter Sideshow T. rex release as well. I agree, the Krentz sculpt is the better of the two. It has a sort of presence none of the other dino-sculpts from Sideshow possess, well, perhaps apart from the Carnotaurus. :-) The latter and larger T. rex goes together beautifully with their Triceratops. And I display them next to each other. Keep up your excellent reviews, and I look forward to many more in the near future!

I missed one when it was released in 2011... luckily got one at double the price in ebay...few years later.. sculpt is great but details were less compared to the prototype pics advertised...I can 💯 tell that the second version of orange carno was the model over which jpkingdom carnorex was modelled....
@DinosDragons3 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately I don't know the jpkingdom. But you really got it. And I find it ironic that I say you got it 'cheap' because isn't it funny we can say of a statue we're "lucky" to get it at "_only_ double the price"! But indeed that is a very good price, considering this was around $200 when new...$250 in today's prices. That is a price you can never ever get anywhere close to today!
