Item Description
See previous item #2564. Lot of 16 blueprint/schematics w/designs related to the "Dino-Riders" toyline. Sizes range from 17x22" to 22x34". Four sheets feature printed designs for armor/weapons accessories. The other 12 sheets feature printed designs of proposed dinosaur toys that were never produced. These include seven sheets w/Parasaurolophus (including one evil Rulon design) printed image and hand-drawn pencil armor/weapons designs. The other five sheets feature same set-up w/designs for Iguanodon (all evil Rulon designs) toy. These toys were designed to be larger, motorized toys in the line, each coming w/two action figures. The Parasaurolophus was initially designed to be have a motorized, running feature and be remote-controlled via a wearable AMP (device the Valorian used to communicate w/their dinosaurs in the series) necklace. We assume the Iguanodon would have a similar feature as the toys' sizes are comparable. Sheets have been stamp dated 1987 and have been rolled. Scattered handling wear as these were production designs. Scattered aging. VF overall. Great designs, including designs for two dinosaurs that were never produced in the "Dino-Riders" toy line! From the personal collection of Lee Volpe, Tyco Toy’s Manager, Director, and VP of New Product Development (1982–1994) who was involved from the beginning of the development of Dino-Riders, Garfield telephones and several other Tyco toys.
