I’m trying to remember ,too. I got two sets on Christmas the year I was five, which kind of made me wonder what Santa Claus was thinking, but one was from my aunt. The molded dinosaurs had their names along their tails as well as the length. I think it may have been demetrodon.

When I was little, they had a robotic plastic injection molding machine at the Como Park Zoo in St. Paul. You put in a coin and the mechanism ran for a couple of minutes and made a plastic dinosaur for you while you watched.

How could these creatures have known, that millions of years in the future, juveniles of a species they could not imagine would be making plastic toy versions of them. Come to think of it, millions of years from now creatures we cannot imagine may be making toy models of us.
