Title: Who are these MLP like dinosaurs?
Post by: The_Loner on June 14, 2016, 10:20:58 AM: I got these two dinosaurs in a big lot of ponies a while back but I have no idea who they are. I have tried searching the Internet without any result. Has anyone seen them before? I'm guessing they are both from the 90s. There was also a Darlin' Dino in the lot. The lot consisted of 80s and 90s toys.

The first one is a pink dinosaur with a big head and big buck teeth, heartshaped "spikes" down the back, painted toe nails and a lock of hair on the back of the head. The arms can turn. There are no stamps anhwhere.

Any idea of what it's worth? I may be putting it up for sale.

The other one is very MLP like. It's purple with yellow horns, spikes and toe nails and orange dots on the back and knees, a lock of hair on the head and a tail. It's stamped Made in China on the belly.

I don't have this one anymore but am still curious of who it might be.

I hope someone know something about these as they have had me puzzled since I got them :)

I am wondering if she could be a pink balla saurus! I know very little about this line, and I can't find any actual photos of the balla saurus toy, but they seem like they have a similar style and features!

As for the purple dragon... long necked ceratopsian ... critter... NOOOOO idea, but gosh I want it haha.

Wow, she really does look like a mix of the Aeroba Saurus and the Bala Saurus. Even though there isn't a picture of this exact one I think it's very possible she really is a Designo Dino. I'm thinking there could have been more characters than the ones shown in the link?
Now to figure out who the other one is.....
More input welcome :)
