Dino World LSV with caged Parasaurolophus

Before Chap Mei´s licensed partner Simba actually started to clone the whole box graphics from Chap Mei´s originals, during Dino Quest time, Simba came up with the name Dino World and this graphic design.

Other than that, the included goods were pretty much the same, exception made (sometimes) to the labels here and there.

The insert was also different, showing some jungle leafs and shadows.

Included items.

Accessories. Middle-sized net considering all 3 existent sizes.

"LSV". A green and military-type camouflage with an oversized .50 cal. For more details and views of the body, refer to "Police Force Patrol Vehicle Playset - LSV".

Figure: "Wildboar Max". Nice detail on the painting side and an overall "Gnawgahyde" look.

The trailer is pretty much the same used during the "starting years" of Police and Soldier Force lines.

The cage. In a nice metal gray color. Featuring a load of possible assembly modes, it´s a plus.

Dino: "Parasaurolophus". Amazing detail as always.

Soldier Force Military Men Play Set 2-packs

Going back to the very beginning, and filled with nostalgia, the line which started it all. Soldier Force (now we can call it series I).

2-packs from the "Snake Squad" team. There were 3 original banners/ team flags. Besides "Snake", there was "Thunder" and "Tiger" squads. However, I never saw these last 2 around before series 2 came up. Until further information, it appears that those 2 squads were a preview for upcoming sets.

Above, a comparison between the same molds with different paint schemes. Until Series III came up, these were the figures used with pretty much every set. Even the same color scheme sometimes had different paint quality (or colored plastic).

These, for instance, were mainly black with silver and gold detail. And again, "Snake Squad" markings on the card. Again, out of curiosity, and as seen in closer detail in the "Soldier Force Snake Squad" post, the Chap Mei logo/ brand (bottom left) "CM".

The back of card is pretty much what it still is today (Soldier Force VI, for example). They never put much effort (design investment) into these. Just like they do with their toy action figures articulation, actually.
