Exploration is ill-advised.
Dinosaucers was a loving ridiculous show even among Transformers/TMNT knockoffs of the late 80s/early 90s, and so much about it makes sense if you assume all the aliens are actually just LARPers

Though still not as deranged as The Mighty Ducks cartoon, which has nothing to do with the movies but is about alien ducks and reptiles from another universe in a race war over a planet where the entire culture is based around hockey.

They said "Dinosaucers", which was the cartoon where different groups of space dinosaurs came to earth to fight it out with the help of some teens. It didn't catch on because there wasn't a good distinction between what dinos were sorted to which side

Dino-Riders were legit awesome. Probably one of favorite toys as a kid. Those and the Playskool dinosaurs were the best dinosaur toys.

It's kinda got a weird thing going on where every character has a counterpart on the other side; the evil leader is a T-Rex, the good guy leader is an allosaurus, there's an archeopteryx whose rival is the pterosaur, the ichtyosaur and the plesiosaur, the triceratops and the styracosaurus (extra ironic given iirc it turns out styracosaurus is probably just a full-grown triceratops, or something) and so on. Also the episodes are even weirder. I think there's one where the bird lady gets turned into a human and has a love interest plot becoming an actor or something. And one where they become wrestlers.

The toys they put out for this show were ridiculously detailed and much cooler than the plain designs from the show. I had the figure of the triceratops as a kid. It weighed like 2 loving pounds and could seriously hurt someone if it got thrown. Which it did in my house, a lot.

yeah, i barely actually watched the show itself. but i did have the pteranodon and the stegosaurus - including war paint version. :black101:



(it came with war paint and i got it stuck in the crevices of the toy and was never able to wash it out)

“Torosaurus” is potentially the same as triceratops. Styracosaurus is real (as far as we know)

My google skills are failing me (truthfully, Google has just gotten worse) but I remember an early 90s cartoon, and I am thinking it was an episode of Reading Rainbow, where a modern human boy wakes up as a pet for a dinosaur child.

Street Sharks toys were pretty rad, and due to being mostly rubber very chewable.

My wife asked for it to be disappeared for now. The thread still exists, so we'll see.
