Ecosystem

6914 Prehistoric Hunters — The last Creator dinosaur set of this size, 6914 Prehistoric Hunters, despite being just 4 years old, looks very crude in comparison.

6914 Prehistoric Hunters — This set is significantly superior. Despite 6914 being only 4 years old (2012), it looks very crude in comparison. Major improvements include better leg design, neck articulation, and overall proportions.

31024 Roaring Power — Comment in thread by legodad1 asks for comparison, noting 31024 had design similarities and was considered very good, but no direct comparison made by reviewer.

31032 Red Creatures — Comment by Binnekamp notes similarity (sans wings) and suggests 31058 is a replacement set. 31032 was highly regarded in collection.

Key Pros

✓All three models are superb and worthy of being 'A' models in their own right

Key Cons

✕T-Rex arms with 2-clawed hands are the weakest part of the design, though still an improvement over previous attempts
✕T-Rex leg design with fixed 90-degree knee looks great but hinders poseability somewhat
