Multi-colored dinosaurs, currently available from Tootsietoy. These are made from Ajax molds.

White Tyrannosaurus

Tootsietoy's T-Rex in white. Found on Ebay (he came in the same lot as the yellow one, also pictured here).

White Moschops

Purchased by me at a local dime store in the early 1980s--probably 1980, actually. This was one of my first prehistoric toy figures.

White Dimetrodon

Tootsietoy's Dimetrodon in white.

Red Stegosaurus

Tootsietoy's Stegosaurus in atomic red. This was the first dinosaur toy I ever owned. I have had him since I was six.

Purple Stegosaurus

Tootsietoy Stegosaurus in bright purple. I have no idea why they gave this Stegosaurus such a huge, carnivorous looking head.

Red Moschops

Wed, 31 Jan 2007 13:16:07 PST

Found on Ebay, recently. It's interesting that Tootsietoy chose to do a Moschops figure, but I suspect that it's because Marx and MPC did. It's not a very commonly found...

Lime Green Triceratops

Wed, 31 Jan 2007 13:14:18 PST

Found on Ebay. I think this may be a later one. As far as I know, these dinosaurs are still in production, though I have yet to run across them in brick-and-mortar...

Green Triceratops

This one was purchased by me in the early 1980s, at a local dime store.

Powder Blue Tyrannosaurus

Wed, 31 Jan 2007 13:11:04 PST

Found on Ebay. This is one of the earlier figures, I think. The earlier figures produced seem to be made of slightly cheaper, and less opaque plastic. I could be wrong...

Blue Dimetrodon

Wed, 31 Jan 2007 13:09:10 PST

Tootsietoy Blue Dimetrodon. I purchased this in the early 1980s at a dime store. The end of the tail is broken off. These figures tails/spikes/plates/teeth snapped off...

White Brontosaurus

Brontosaurus (Apartosaurus). Again, a very 'old school' style, obviously. This figure looks almost identical to the dinosaur on the Sinclair logo, and these are sometimes...

Yellow Tyrannosaurus

A more "old school" rendering of T-Rex, in a hunkered-over pose.
