I'd recommend your looking into Victory Decision no matter what you want to play. A very versatile and easy, albeit encompassing, set of rules.

I must admit to buying plastic dinosars too :(

I am quite amazed at how well a simple paint-job can elevate them from rubbish looking to acceptable :D

Whilst we are making confessions, I admit that when this thread first began I went out to the chinese import shop to ook for dinosaurs, and ended up buying an elephant as it happens. It wasnt white but it might as well have been. Needless to say it has sat in the closet gathering dust ever since.

Great to see how these dino-riders have turned out. I particularly like the baggage brontosaurus. It has such an expressive face.

I blame you and this topic for this...

Here's some comparison:

I was quite surprised at how a simple paint job can transform these tacky little dinosaurs... and I got 12 for £1.00 :)

I had these dinosaurs in my hands too, today at the shop. But I resisted, for now....

I got mine from 'The Entertainer' toy shop. The bages were just hung up in strips with African animals and aquatic animals in between them. For £1.00, I couldn't go wrong (especially after seeing what has been created in this topic :D ).

Another one:



There is something therapeutic about slapping a few layers of paint on cheap and cheerful plastic toys :D

They are just simple re-paints (and I doubt the paint will stay on for long :) )... not at all as cool as some of the conversions on this thread  :-*.
