                                Kaiyodo etal          updated 072004

Kaiyodo is well known for high quality models of Dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals the release of the UHA premium series has made the company much more accessible for the collector.  Araki Kazunari  is the best known paleoartist associated with Kaiyodo and seems to have been responsible for most if not all the figure from these releases.  These are expensive running from $40 to several hundred per figure.  They are not toy figures and are not normally included in my the toy collectable category but I do have a few in the dioramas.  They are very good.  Many of  these models can come assembled and painted for a few extra dollars.  

Kaiyodo Resin

These are the among the first Kaiyodo models sold in the US and were not that highly regarded because of their low quality control.  They were cast in solid resin.  The following list only represents the figures I have collected not the full range.

Brontosaurus

Kentrosaurus  See this figure in the Tendaguru diorama

Kaiyodo Dino Land 1/35 scale vinyl

These are high quality Vinyl models that can be obtained either preassemble or can be assembled.  The following list only represents the figures I have collected not the full range.  For more information try Link & Pin Hobbies.

DINOWORLD  by Kabaya the famous paleontologist and author Dr. Bob Bakker is said to have been a consultant on this series.  The exact identities for the figures of this series are problematic since I yet to find a consistent English source.  The figure come in pieces like the UHA but are less brittle and less detailed.
