WEM Dinosaur Adventure Report

[Thorondor 33]

I decided to create a thread on the awesome WEM Dinosaur Adventure! So, as of last time I was there, July 6th, here is what I saw:

Carnegie- Stock was rather low compared to previous times. There was an abundance of Velociraptors, Albertosaurs, Carnotaurus, and other smaller dinos. The big ones, like the Kronosaurs and Brachs, were in very low stock. I got an Albertosaurus.

Schleich- Also a low stock compared to previous times. I had a tough time finding doubles of one toy. Even the prehistoric mammals were low.

Resaurus- Not a low stock. There was at least 4 of every dino in the series. The usually cost $17.99 CDN, but this time they were down to $14.99. Perhaps these Dinos aren't selling well? When I was there, the guy right ahead of me bought the Triceratops, I got a Velociraptor.

Other- They have some JP/// Bootlegs, they are electronic toys. The bootlegs were of the Dilo and Alpha Raptor. They also had a cool snow globe, with dinos in it, and it said Dinosaur Adventure- Edmonton, Alberta which was cool. There was some books and big, vynil dinos.

Now you made me feel jealous

According to the linkandpinhobbies site the Resaurus line has been cancelled. And on Dinofarm there has appeared a new line of dinos, which is essentially the Resaurus line but without articulation and in a smaller scale. I really wish now I got the velociraptor, and ordered the protoceratops.

I'm surprised Carnegie/Safari stock is low, they usually don't have that problem. Did you see any of the feathered horrors like the microraptor?

From what I've seen of Schleich they only send 2-4 of one dinosaur model per outlet, so that's maybe why they were low.

Of all the dinosaurs to make bootlegs of, they chose the JP3 reakatak line Why doesn't somebody do a bootleg of the Thrasher rex?

Haha, no feathered dinosaurs to be seen!

I just figured out that my local Tractor Supply Co. carries Schliech dinos. I might have to pick up some.

Yesterday there was a low-stock at the Dino Adventure. No more than 5 different Safari Dinos, Schleich had a few more to choose from. The Resaurus stuff was low too, not much left but really the carnivores. The Dinos were happy to see me.

*Again wishes I could go to Edmonton* My dinos are insisting I take them on a field trip to see their cousins*
