Later Dinosaurs (Series 8)
Release Date: Unknown (probably 1993-95)
Colors: Painted (2 per sculpt)
Sculpts: 4
Location(s): UK and probably other parts of Europe
The later dinosaurs were discovered to be just like MIMP with point values and numbers. They were released as a 4 pack with a Dinosaur Hologram Watch. There were 4 figures released in 2 different colors.
Each of the figures has 2 variants and the colors are Yellow, Blue-green, and Brown. The paint applications add a few colors, but they are simple applications. Even simpler than the Series 6 figures.
These figures are very rare but are not sought after by collectors. Mainly because they are the strangest looking dinosaurs you will ever see. They are numbered 223-226, much later than the Aliens. But there point value is more like that of the Series 6 Dinosaurs. As such they are an oddity in MIMP and are not given a Series designation, though they are released with the same packaging as the Series 6 Dinosaurs.
Update: Thanks to Al Sharpe for linking me to a picture of these mint in package. This picture also included the names and bios of the dinos!
