Jurassic Park Dakin Figures
Prior to the first Jurassic park movie, a company called Dakin released six small dinosaur figures in late 1992. They came in two versions, the loose ones (as shown on this page) and the slightly larger keychain ones.
Brachiosaurus
See this figure
Comments: More or less twice the size of the Brachiosaurus hatchling that came with the first JP line of Kenner, this figure has the same gray color, while its movie counter-part was closer to beige.
Dilophosaurus
See this figure
Comments: Many consider this figure to be the best of the entire line, because of its good sculpt and the detailed paint scheme.
Gallimimus
See this figure
Comments: This Gallimimus figure is actually more movie-accurate than the action-figure in the second JP line of Kenner, because it's clearly based of later artwork (brown with dark stripes).
Triceratops
See this figure
Comments: While Dakin didn't make hatchling figures (or labelled them as such, for that matter), this sculpt comes surprisingly close to the Baby Triceratops artwork as done by 'Crash' McCreery.
Tyrannosaurus
See this figure
Comments: While being the 'king' of the movie, unfortunately this figure doesn't look like the vicious predator it represents. The sculpt makes it look like slow or even docile.
Velociraptor
See this figure
Comments: Like the T-Rex, this figure also doesn't quite match its movie counter-part. It's too bulky.
