"Must go faster" Jurassic park 1/20

New announcement from Iron Studios.

Unfortunately, I stopped trusting the quality of their products :/

Unfortunately, Iron Studios wasted such a good start. They gave us some really beautiful statues like sick triceratops.
Unfortunately their latest products are a joke, my last two are Velociraptor TLW and Nedry.

I'm switching completely to Prime1

Such a shame they are going 1/20 scale, so small. Pricing is just insane also, I bet this will cost almost the same as the 1/10 t-rex they released many years ago.

Absolutely thrilled they are doing this. The Gennaro Rex looks good so hopefully that and this will look good in person too.

But I did also think why not 1/10? Surely they can do a Rex and car in 1/10.

Does this also mean they do have the rights to do statues of the jeep? Is that a new thing or did they always have the choice?

They traced over one of the FK promotional renders for this doodle. I'm guessing (hoping) the final product one will not be 1:1 to this concept art.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

I’m not a fan of iron studios’ pieces past a certain point. I think their eyes exceed their capabilities and the sculpts just aren’t doing it for me. The nedry face is awful, the two raptors sculpts are awful, the Gennaro rex just looks out of place and not reminiscent enough of the scene. I could be in the minority, but they’re just not for me. I’m interested to see how this one turns out, but I’m not hopeful. I hope everyone who likes their pieces are happy with them.

This is still potentially another year out from preorder anyway. They teased the raptor hatchling scene a year ago and that just went up for preorder.

I?m happy with what I have - Triceratops, raptor vs Muldoon, attacking raptor, Malcolm? the earlier pieces are the best. The Nedry piece could be better but I?m getting it as it?s a statue I?ve always wanted and it looks good besides the likeness.
Rex vs Gennaro looks good as long as the production pieces hold up, but they seem to be getting more cartoony than realistic.

I?m sticking with them as I love dioramas. And at the rate they?re going there?s not that many scenes they can still do if they?re sticking with the human/dinosaur theme - Gallimimus stampede, Ellie and raptor in the maintenance shed, Grant and the kids with the Brachi in the tree? that?s all that come to mind now, unless they do Grant kicking the raptor in the air vent lol.
