Earlier than we start the evaluation, I wish to thank the beneficiant people over at ToyMonster for reaching out and sending me a big collection of Captivz figures. Your generosity is far appreciated!
At present we’re one other extremely anticipated new sculpt from the ToyMonster Captivz line, the Monolophosaurus, a part of the Dino-Trackers collection. This set differs from others in that every determine has a coloration palette that matches their assigned biome. On this case, the Monolophosaurus comes from the jungle biome. Even the slime is coloration coordinated on this set and on this case, it’s labeled jungle moss slime. These figures additionally include a token, versus the cardboard we’ve seen in another units.
The Monolophosaurus stands 1.75” (4.44 cm) tall to the highest of the pinnacle and measures 4.25” (10.79 cm) lengthy, together with the bend within the tail. The tail has a downward bend that’s most likely there as a stability security measure however mine stands completely tremendous on simply its toes. The precise Monolophosaurus, recognized from solely a single specimen, is estimated to have measured 16.4’ (5 meters) which places the toy at about 1/45 in scale.
Scale acutely aware collectors ought to just like the small measurement of the determine, however accuracy pedants ought to as properly since there’s little to complain about on that entrance. It’s decently proportioned with inward going through palms and the pinnacle is unmistakably Monolophosaurus. Take into account that all we now have of the genus is the cranium, parts of the spine, and hips. The tail is a bit quick and spindly however the design is attempting to remain devoted to that utilized in Camp Cretaceous.
Nice particulars embrace meticulously sculpted tooth of various size and a barely elevated tongue undulating inside the mouth. Small scales cowl a lot of the determine and a row of scutes, most notable on the nape, runs down the midline of the again and stops simply handed the bottom of the tail. Sagging pores and skin folds are obvious alongside the decrease torso and wrinkling may be seen alongside the neck and limb joints. Clusters of huge scales are sculpted on the again of the neck and the crest has vertical grooves etched into it.
The determine is inexperienced alongside the again and funky blue elsewhere, with a darkish wash over the perimeters that highlights the size element. The eyes are yellow with black pupils, the tooth are white, and the tongue and inside the mouth are pink. The paint utility is great on this diminutive determine and the general coloration scheme properly conveys the forest biome we’re informed this dinosaur lives in. The nails will not be painted however that’s alright, I’d have appreciated it if there was a splash of coloration on the crest although.
The Captivz Monolophosaurus is a particular spotlight of the Dino-Trackers wave that ought to have broad enchantment amongst collectors of each Jurassic World toys and dinosaur figures typically. I’m a sucker for small crested theropods and new Monolophosaurus figures are at all times thrilling.
