RE: Models + Dinosaur Society

["Rafert, John" <JRAFERT@xray.indyrad.iupui.edu>]

There are some great models out there. The Japanese company Kaiyodo has a 
beautiful line of 1/20th scale dinos. I usually buy through Monstrosities @ 
1-516-378-1338. There is about a dozen or so in that scale and are made of 
vinyl.  They are either as kits or built-ups and range in price from $35 to 
$160. The Dinosaur Society had some of them in last catalogue. I recall a 
post that mentioned a new catalogue to be released soon, but I haven't seen 
it. Tamiya of Japan has a nice series of 1/35th dinos as kits and can be 
ordered from most quality hobby shops. I saw them last week at the National 
Museum of Natural History. Please stay tuned to the list. I am trying to 
produce a WWW page on Dinosaur Art and Modeling. I'll try to include 
resources for dino models as they are revealed. I did notice a newsletter 
mentioned in the current issue of Earth Magazine. I didn't buy the issue 
then and now I can't find it. If anyone has a copy, I would appreciate the 
name and address of the people to contact. It was in the back commercial 
advertising section of the magazine. Thanks for the help on that.

I have been trying to find some decent dinosaur models that look good and
that are scientifically accurate[I don't mean actual size]but,I haven't had
any luck.
Could you help?

Also,Does the Dinosaur Society have a web page?Is the society still there?I
mailed a letter[not e-mailed]to them and I have been waiting since January.

Thanks,
Matthew Garman.
