Thanks, Gus ...



It IS such a beautiful picture that I'll gladly accept that it's flying by itself 8}



I'm happy that you decided (like Sylvia) to believe in the magic ...  :klickygrin:

All the best,
Richard

Thank you Anne, Michael and Jimbo ...



Well said, Gus!   :yup:

I am not sure whether Gus said this in reference to the bi-plane photo or the pteranondon photo but his observation applies equally well to both.   :)




I keep enjoying this  8}

Thank you Richard




Thanks Richard,
This is really cool
8-)

Your photos are :wow: :wow: :wow:

Best regards,
Jimbo



As you can imagine, this "on location review" has taken a lot of time, but it's because of y'all that it has been well worth every minute!

Thanks to everyone,
Richard

DINOS ON LOCATION

The pteranodon (4173) seems to be a bit confused ...

He just broke out of his box and was expecting to be REVIEWED "on location" ...

Andi, don't worry about a little "O" ... It was your wonderful reviews of the Playmo-Dinos that made me tell my family that I wanted Playmobil Dinosaurs for my birthday last month! I loved :love: your review of the Pteranodon. Especially your animation showing his "snapping" jaws! (Click HERE.)

Thanks, Andi! This DINO REVIEW ON LOCATION is because of you!

All the best,
Richard

DINOS ON LOCATION


We heard some rumors that there might be some Pteranodon (4173) flying around our "uninhabited and unexplored" island. We were sort of excited until we saw what really looked like a squadron of pterodactyl ...  :o

Usha (our pilot-4174) quickly landed our bi-plane when she saw them and has refused to fly anywhere near the island. (I can't say that I blame her, as I was in the bi-plane with her when we spotted them.)

This afternoon, we took our AWD/AT Amphib (4175) over to the island to determine once and for all if this was really "Dino Island" ...

We had already seen a Triceratops (4170). But, we wanted to know if there were really more. And, were the rumors correct? Were there really Pterandon (4173) there as well?

We found a lot more than we had expected.

In the first photo we are carefully driving our AWD/AT Amphib (4175) over this very rocky, mountainous and hilly island.

The second photo shows some of the mountainous terrain we had to travel over.

DINOS ON LOCATION

Last night was very noisy. We heard loud cries in the jungle all night long.

None of us slept very well. Some of the sounds that kept waking us made our hair stand on end.

This morning we were determined to find the creatures that kept us awake.

In the first photo, you can see me after I had climbed up to one of the highest places on the island.

In the second photo ... I started looking around and quickly saw something move on my left. It was T-Rex (4171)!

And, this giant carnivore (Playmovore) was much too close..

DINOS ON LOCATION

Fortunately, it was not me that caught his interest. Above his head, a large saurus (lizard) had crawled out onto a fallen tree limb.

In the first photo, the T-Rex (4171) is about to grab himself a bit of breakfast.

In the second photo, something distracted the T-Rex (4171) and the lizard quickly slipped away.

DINOS ON LOCATION

It was a Spinosaurus (4174) ... A creature that lived during a totally different time period than the T-Rex (4171)! However, this was not the time to conduct a history lesson.

In the first photo, the two behemoths battle it out.

In the second photo, I make good my escape and feel safe and comfortable back in the AWD/AT Amphib (4175).

DINOS ON LOCATION

We didn't feel safe and comfortable for long!

In the first photo ... we saw something up  in the sky that was coming straight for us.
It was a Pteranodon (4173)!

That answered our question about the rumors. The rumors were true!

And in the second photo, it looks like this Pteranodon (4173) wants us for his breakfast ...

We've made a quick decision ... WE'RE LEAVING DINO ISLAND !
