    Nice find. I never noticed that the Jurassic Park style Spinosaurus looks so much like a Trogladon. That is kind of disenchanting now that I look at it. I kind of forgot that this old version of Spinosaurus existed at all, and looked at Trogladon as unique until right now. D:

    Lol, you should have known better about GW! Eventhough they are a company that would sue their own mothers over copyrights etc....they are not that original, and have at time just 1 on 1 copied historical creatures, units and uniforms.

    Yeah. I knew I've seen the style before, bipedal with sail. I just didn't place it or realize it was literally modeled off the yin to the T-Rex's yang as far as pop culture was concerned.
    For the past few years Spinosaurus has looked like this in my mind.

    AKA
    Quadruped
    Spends 95% of its life in the water
    Tiny legs
    It's sail is actually part of it's back

    It just didn't click that they were that uncreative. :(

    It's too bad that they are so big. Beside that, they are beautifull models.

    Yea, I was really hoping that they would be in scale with out stuff.
    I think the Triceratops might be close enough to fit on a 50x100mm base though.

    The full price difference between the Spinosaurus and the Troglodon is only $20. 20% off the Spinosaurus helps, but such a deal can be found for the Troglodon as well. The Troglodon also comes with the Skink Oracle and Oldblood.

    Price-wise I don't personally see the incentive, but of course someone may want to convert something a little bit more unique and individualized than a standard Troglodon kit.
