Thank you for your feedback! Sorry I am replying so late, but it's really appreciated!

Thank you for your comment! I am trying to improve still, plenty to work on! For example in this video you can see that I could have used much better lighting. Actually I was thinking I might redo some of these old Sideshow ones in future, maybe next year! Thank you for your support!

Thanks Zachi! It's great to get feedback like yours as it helps me to improve all the time! Triceratops is fascinating and it's a very exciting time for dinosaur lovers these last few years. Plenty of new discoveries and study techniques that reveal detail we never imagined we ever would from fossils. Even colour!

Thanks! It really is! A very nice heft to it, you really believe in the weight of this animal when you have it right in front of you!

I can imagine

Hmmm I didn't realise that. But no definitely this wasn't broken.

+Mark spino78 (megatron8910) It's incredible. These few years have actually been very good for ceratopsian discoveries and I have no doubt new sculpts will be coming out from different lines.

Awesome! I am sure you have a very impressive iconic display with those two! I didn't quite like the sculpt of that T Rex, something about the posture, but I've seen pictures of them together, and am having second thoughts!

Because a full grown T-rex like SUE (see her new posture) was very bulky with a thick neck...even more than this sideshow Tyrant king...but it comes close. For me it´s a good living exemple of a SUE (without some feather parts...whatever)...the body looks very lively! Then the leg position, walking pose looks very good and the overall proportions are right. Head to body to tail... arm size. Even more the Sideshow Triceratops. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triceratops#/media/File:LA-Triceratops_mount-2.jpg The skeletons show you enormous massive front legs and shoulders... most toys and sculptures have a far too weak front section of Triceratops. I mean this animal has the most massive head of all land living animals...there must be a neck and front limbs to hold and use that...it´s logic! So look at the skeletons frontlegs and shoulder and look at this sculpture... the only sculpt that is a 1to1 build around with flesh! The only right sculpted body so far... That´s an overall problem it seems...90% of the paleo artists don´t deven use a skeleton or bone parts as template it seems. Then I look at the pictures and ask myself ... how could these real found bones or entire skeletons fit in this painted animal. Another good exemple: Patagotitan Maximo Field Museum skeleton build has a nearly straight back and big but not super huge neck bones... Then look at these pictures... most skeleton scale pictues have nothing to do with the skeleton builds in museums. The look like their neck is 50% of the body. Sureley with air sacks and esophagus etc... the overall neck was very massive, but this looks wired! www.deviantart.com/randomdinos/art/Patagotitan-mayorum-skeletal-reconstruction-762150985

Congratulations! You won't regret it. And you being the States means no shipping so it's fantastic. If you mean that you have the newest T Rex from SS, you are in for an amazing experience. That's also 1:15 scale I believe, so they are wonderful to display together!

Yes, I have the newest SS T-Rex. I bought it a year ago. No extra money to buy the Triceratops back then. I was surprised to see it still being available, not to mention the 20% off. By the way, the T-Rex is on 20% off as well if anyone wants to pick it up. These two statues are designed to be side by side, they have the same scale, exact same color of base material and...their pose.

Great tip but 20% off? I don't see it.

DinosDragons It ended yesterday.

That is still an excellent figure! Were it not for the lack of space, I would get it too!

@@DinosDragons it has a good size but at the same time it is really lite

Thanks Joshua, it certainly gives me a new perspective, and appreciate your thoughts as a sculptor. You certainly have a point about structural integrity being maintained, yet allowing the landscape surface to be unlimited in possibility. It does add height though, so I have to get a new display cabinet made!

You could try ebay. Unfortunately, Sideshows are snapped up pretty fast and most who buy are serious collectors so you won't find a lot on the secondary market. I saw one on ebay though, maybe you can grab that one!

Oh why is that? I thought the stripes add a bit of character and interest to the usual drab colours you find. Actually wait... that's not too accurate. Checkout the ceratopsians from Collecta that come out each year!

I would say that if you compare to the prototype pictures, you'll definitely be disappointed. It's really quite sad that they have such an amazing sculpt and with better applications, there is so much more potential that could be extracted. However, paintjob is still better than many of the mass produced models, especially the old Carnegies. I think at this higher scale, you just have more room for subtlety to play with.

DinosDragons It seems like they stop making dinosaurs now...so sad. We have no chance to get the new one anymore.
