Post The Gab's 360 World Review

Safari Ltd New 2010 Brachiosaurus World Review

Sincerly, i want to be honest, with all of you, with this review.
When we talk about Dinosaurus, there's several point of views.
Mine is of the father, enthuastically with toys, that finds how to educate his kids.
The Safari ltd new for 2010 Brachiosaurus, is the perfect size to play and avoid accidents, light and solid.The color is green, but it doesn't go into the category of exccess of liberty in colors or Brazilian Carnibal.It is very good taste green and others color.The details are incredibles, i love the wrinkles.For Exemple others great details are the theets.First category toy.
Accuracy from 1 to 10 =10
Paint work from 1to 10= 8.50 because personal taste
Details from 1 to 10=10
Size and scale 1 to 10= 9 because does not match in size with the retired one.
(I want mention that the size 1/40 make the toy price more accesible to everybody)
Final review i highly recomend this toy, for everybody, teenagers, adults, it is a perfect gift ,and work to perfection for an office room, a toy for a girl or a boy.

Thank you for the review Gabriel, you are a very good father indeed.

It gives me the idea to ask my 80 years old mother to buy me this animal .

I'm waiting for this one since the end of 2008 I think, because it was previously a missed 2009 model.

You are right to buy it for your children because it's a very fine and accurate model.
Look at those forelimb, the feet look perfectly fine. A lot of toy makers like this well known German company would take the lesson and made more research before modelling a dino replica.



I agree with you for the color, even if they are not my favourite they seems very finely painted and not too shiny.

Yes the scale is maybe the problem, because it is smaller than the 1/40, maybe 1/50 or 1/60, I need to have it to really know... But ok, the price is smaller too so... I don't want to think about how much we would have to spend for a real 1/40 brachiosaurus

Gabriël, i do like parents which try to learn their children something about nature, and for this buying them toys like this, good job there!

The dino on itsself is not my taste i must say, even when it had good deetails.
But maybe the colour is what is annoying me, because i am pretty sure this big guy wasn't green, and i have problems with his carnivore teeth too.
But ok, i am not in the dino'scene too much ,so who am i, haha.

Uuuuh Christophe, since i lost my parents already almost 10 years ago ,could you ask your mother if she has some extra funds for her new son in the Netherlands too please???

Carnivore teeth ? You have too much uglysaurus Willy .

The teeth on this brachiosaurus are accurate sauropod vegetarian teeth, they have no mammalian molars .

Look at the real ones...



Look at the teeth, not the girl behind...

Your very detailed comments about our new Wild Safari Brachio is very much welcomed and, of course, very much appreciated. We do lots of research prior to sculpting to ensure maximum accuracy We are an educational toy company so we must be more than just a toy that looks good, it must reflect authenticity Our Carnegie Dino collection is developed with the collaboration of the paleontologists of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Again we thank you and Happy Easter and finally Spring!
