For anyone interested in dino hunting Poundland are selling dinosaur skeletons ideal for 25/28mm. In my local store they've got the T-rex, Velociraptor, Stegosaurus and Triceratops. Funnily enough they are a £1 each!

No Poundland near me.

Do they look as if they could be easily broken apart for "loose" bones?

I would say yes. I'll get a pic up for you when I'm home later.

There ya go. The pic isn't far off actual size, I reckon the model stands about 15-20cm in height but like you I'm going to break it up:

Thats a good effective way of getting dino skeletons or getting them embeded in the earth. Cheap too.

I saw these in our Poundland the other day and considedred getting a couple. But then I got horribly confused by the instruction on the box to "Be Like Fossil!" and all I could think of was:

It was all too much and I had to leave the store.

I got you and Malamute a T-rex when I saw them but I'll venture back into the beastie infested wilderness and get you the Triceratops.

I did this with pretty much one of these kits. Im not sure if its the same, as I got it off Dewbakuk.

It was very easy to seperate the bones with a saw.

An excellent find, thanks for the heads up and thanks for buying me one

The 'instrooctions' inside are rather amusing too.

Curtis, they sell that skeleton too so I'm thinking it's from the same collection.

Malamute, usual commission rules apply.
