you guys ever see the big rubber foam filled dinosaurs at toysrus? Pretty big, and pretty cheap. I would love to see some kaiju made in the same style... |

Not sure where the idea for the first one came from but the second one looks like one of the D&D critters from the fiend folio. |

 these are from the same line up . i think making these into vinyls would be a great idea and i doubt anybody holds the rights to these characters . |

The red guy on top looks like he's auditioning for a Broadway musical. Pretty cool figure. |

The green and brown guy on the middle left side looks to be the inspiration for the AD&D Bulette  I had all these dudes and loved the lite blue guy as well as the D&D monsters |

I had these, too, when I was a kid. And yes, these were the inspiration for those D&D monsters -- told to me by someone "in the D&D know" years ago, when I asked him about these. Vinyls of those would be cool! |

I think the yellow one in the front with the brown was the Rust Monster if I am not mistaken. |

Here's two more from the set. Sorry for the lousy photo.   These guys came bagged w/ header card, army man style. I'm fairly certain they were packaged along with actual prehistoric monsters, like Triceratops and Stegasaurus. The blurry green guy was my favorite. Vinyl sounds cool, but why not just reissue the set? I wonder what the licensing situation would look like in either case. Those illustrations blew my mind. I always knew there was more to these toys than just being cool and inexpensive. |
