That Allosaurus looks familiar!

[RetroArt]

I came across this on the M&J Variety wholesale items sight, a 70's era Hong Kong cheapo carded plastic dinosaurs set with a very familiar looking Allosaurus on the header card.

I got one of these when I ordered a bunch of stuff a few years back- the toy dinosaurs are recast knockoffs of Marx and other pre-existing brands. There's no copyright anywhere but the carding quality and text hint to mid to late 70's.

I posted it here as a PREHISTORIC SCENES oddity.

Here's the link to the item's page:

Very interesting.
Think I might order one just to have it.

That was possibly a second issue of the carded/bagged set, with the Sabre-tooth Tiger removed from the artwork!

I keep meaning to mention.
Anyone interested in this, don't bother trying to order.
They don't actually have it.
OUT OF STOCK is what they told me after a couple weeks of processing my order.
