Prehistoric scenes kits from Aurora/Atlantis
Was there a nameplate for the Triceratops? I have a chum who got the kit but no nameplate. Did it come with one and what did it say?
Thanks in advance,
Tim

Here you go, Tim.
Edit: This is a resin reproduction of the original that was recently on ebay UK. This is the correct format however, as there is a photo of a nameplate for the Aurora Styracosaurus online and it is in this same format.

Somehow, I knew Trevor would be involved. lol
Thanks a million Vlad, or 75 million in this case, that is most helpful.

Don't mention it, Tim - that's what The CH is for! BTW, check out my "Dinosaur Bashes" thread, as my kitbashed Alamosaurus is nearing completion ...Tim Fortuna wrote: ↑April 19th, 2024, 7:53 pm Somehow, I knew Trevor would be involved. lol

Yeah. Revell screwed up the nameplate in the 2007 reissue.

So, it's been blank ever since. Several people have produced reproduction nameplates pulled from any that were made before that.
