 Re: mold a rama run
most of the molds are f'ing old, up to 50 years old, the guy that runs replication devices tools new molds to order, as mentioned earlier rotofugi has a new mold in the works, most molds are "open" pieces i.e. you can get a T-rex at many different locales the only difference is some are blank on the base others are marked with where they are from, a handful only operate out of one specific locale i.e. I am almost positive gatorland has the only gator wrestler and the henry ford has the only henry ford statue and rosa parks bus (my favorite, such a nice limey green)

 Re: mold a rama run
the field museum has a limited run of an orange camel to coincide with their genghis kahn special exhibit. it's the same bright orange that is used for the stegosaurus that's usually in its spot.
anyone want one?

 Re: mold a rama run
I was just at the Knoxville Zoo yesterday and was really surprised to see that they had these machines there. At a buck a pop, you can guarantee I got all of them.
Camel Baby Elephant Giraffe and baby Gorilla Black Bear River Otter Panther Tiger
There was also another machine listed on the zoo map that wasn't there. I asked about it. It's a Chimpanzee, but the machine is being repaired. For completion sake, I'm definitely going to have to go back. Really cool machines. I wish there were more of these things around.

 Re: mold a rama run
Next time anyone goes anywhere I would like a couple of anything if you can swing it. We don't have anything like this in Australia and my daughter would be fascinated by these. She is already right into toy production and tries to soak it all up, they have a similar machine at her school which makes keyrings etc where you can inject the hot vinyl by hand by sticking plastic pellets in and pulling a lever after it's melted (I think they have these in "shop classes" everywhere all over the world.) Now I think about it it's the same thing except it's not an electric machine and the moulds they have are very basic e.g. flat-circular, flat-square, oval etc and kids can use it to burn their hands off.

 Re: mold a rama run
Saw this on the Modville fb page. These are at the Lowry Park Zoo in Tampa FL. All 5 are amazing.

 Re: mold a rama run
WO! Are they supposed to relate to anything at the zoo, they are pretty random. All about 3-4" I suppose?

 Re: mold a rama run
I'm at Lowry Park today. Anyone want me to grab something? I'll try to update with what they have.
Looks like they have animal molds right now. I've seen an orange tiger so far.
