More breakout videos from this creator.
So my wife and I recently went to the Field Museum in Chicago, Illinois. Amazing place, by the way. But while we were there, we found out this existed. It's called the Mold-A-Rama, Automatic Miniature Plastic Factory. Make your own exclusive product, $5, molded in colorful plastic in seconds. And it creates a little mold for you, of a creature for you. T-Rex first, and we just, we had to make that. And then we found out there were others, just like it, across the museum. So we made that day to find as many as we could. And these are ones that we managed to find. Now, except for the Argentinosaurus, that's Haolonggood. Uh, now we might have missed some prehistoric creatures, and if, truly unfortunate, but I'm pretty happy with the ones that we find. Of course, the T-Rex is what started it all. Vintage take on T-Rex, like, really outdated by, by today's standards, with a kangaroo stance, dragging its tail on the ground, arms really strange looking. Head, it's incredibly vintage and I absolutely love vintage dinosaur reconstructions. The same goes for the Apatosaurus. Of course, the proportions don't really match up to what we know about Apatosaurus today. The head shape, for example, is Apatosaurus and Diplodocids in general typically had a longer, uh, like a thin, uh, elongated snout to this really reduced thing that you see right here. It's also dragging its tail around, that Apatosaurus did not do. And it's got more of a stance, which, of course, is not too correct either. There was also an Ankylosaurus, and it too is a little bit more outdated. Uh, it's got, like, it seems of a, you know, dragging tail, a lot of the proportions don't really match up. The head shape seems to be pretty good. Uh, but it's solid piece of armor that all kinda interlocks together. Ankylosaurus did have armor known as osteoderms, as quite look like this rather. It would have just across the body, unless that's exactly right here and to tell because of the singular. Either way, it's very cool. Now, this is, that's actually pretty dang accurate. Uh, this is Quetzalcoatlus, of course. It's, it, the machine was right next to this giant Quetzalcoatlus statue, so quite fitting. And it seems to be pretty, it's probably not perfect, but it certainly looks a lot like a Quetzalcoatlus with that beak shape, the way that that crest looks. It seems to have small, uh, like little feathers. It seems to match up to. Love it. And there's also this fellow right here, Archaeopteryx. It's a good of these too, because there is the Chicago specimen at, uh, at, uh, the Field Museum, which is an amazing specimen, by the way. Uh, this too seems to be a little bit more on the accurate side. It, of course, has feathers. Seems to be alright and the whole body seems good. Uh, so yeah, those are all the molds that we managed to find at the. Was a fun little, little challenge, I suppose, to just run around and look for as many as we could. I highly recommend you guys are.
