JPToys - News

It's finally here. After much anticipation we finally put up photos and information from the latest JP series by Hasbro. It's not 100% finished as we plan to soon have loose photos of the 2-packs. Enjoy!

Breathe in, breathe out. We're not talking about the actual packaged figure but what forum moderator Stitch came across was pretty cool nonetheless. While browsing the picture frame isle he found a movie poster frame that just so happened to use TLW Utahraptor as a reference! He was even kind enough to snap a picture for us. Also today, we've got a new diorama gallery from izartist that includes a whopping 22 new dioramas!

In our continuing effort to keep you informed on the JP:D 2 line, site contributor Mr. Goodbytes received the following response from a Hasbro rep when inquiring about the "missing" 2 large dinos:

These are the ones we have listed:

#29469 Pteranodon
#29468 Tyrannosaurs
#29443 Dimetrodam w/Military Diver
#29442 Triceratops w/Dino Wrangler
#29440 Tyrannosaurus w/Dino Tracker

This does contradict other responses we've received from Hasbro (see 8/29 update) about the missing 2 so I guess we'll have to take a wait and see approach to this news. We'll let you know as soon as something more concrete comes along. In other news today, we have a new custom gallery from smyles that features a Carnage Triceratops repaint.

About 2 weeks ago JPToys.com was contacted by the folks at Promotopia, Inc. probably better known to you as the makers of the Dinomania line of miniature dinosaur collectibles. Originally released in Japan only, Promotopia will now distribute the line here in the US, Canada & Mexico. They asked us to review their product and of course, we were happy to oblige.

In other news, Armothe recently uploaded new shots of the unreleased Chaos Effect Night Hunter series from a newly acquired 1999 Toy Fair catalog. These are by far the best pictures we've seen of this line to date.
