Until recently, I assumed these were original models crafed for the game, but given the game’s low budget nature, I was somewhat suspicious that such high quality sculpts would be made originally for this title. After some digging I was able to find some evidence that points to at least SOME of the dinosaurs possibly being modified versions of existing dinosaur toys and model kits from Japan. The allosaurus, for example appears to be based off of Kaiyodo’s unlicensed Gwangi model kit.
