Dinosaurs Attack by Topps
>>151623874So better?
believe ti or not dinosaurs as R rated horror monsters are rare, only 3 or 4 films, not many books or comics
i love the colors in this cards, dunno how they achieve it. Paint rather than ink?
>>151623884Why did Topps make sure Mars Attacks never killed children but they had no qualms about dinosaurs killing all the kids?
shame hat the movie project never materialized
>>151623874In other words the zombie virus episode of Primal.
>>151623893i dont like crossed too much but its admirable how much money it made, 150+ fucking issues when you count all series>>151623970mars attack came in the 60s when they could arrest you for printing indecent art
>>151623874
not a big fan of the time travel thing, I prefer when they don't explain the origin of the monsters. Romero didn't explain shit about zombies. Neither did Lovecraft with his gods.

>WE are the walking dinosaurs!
>>151623914The T-rex looks utterly confused as to why everyone else around him, known herbivores, are eating dead people.
>>151624660herbivores do eat meat if they are starving
>there is no help. There is no hope. There is no escape. There are only the dinosaurs
>>151624618>slow orchestral cover of "walk the dinosaur" plays in the background
>later that day in a press conference, a representative of the dinosaurs apologized for stamping that hecking dogerino. When a female reporter asked why the apology for a single dog and not the thousands of dead and inured, the theropod gave her two middle fingers and then chopped her head off
>>151624461The time travel is important for the plot.>Lovecraft never explained shitHe did, quite extensively. Like how Cthulhu is ultimately just an alien priest. The entire point is humanity is worthless and every other alien civilization mogs it.
>>151624681Teacher got a spear?
>>151624887fair point i guess i didn't pay enough attention when i read the call of chuthulu >>151624908>Teacher got a spear?is like a pointer thing, 20th century tech
I always liked this more than Mars Attacks. Shame the movie never happened.
>the tower of Pisa, whateva happened there
>>151625007same here
>>151624991>>151625096Vaguely sexual?
>>151623914So it well known we’ll never get an adaptation of something like this, right?Pure dinosaur horror survival in a movie or tv show?Not spectacle and family friendly like the Jurassic franchise, but pure horror porn.
>>151625384There are attempts. Like Carnosaur.Or that movie that came out this year with dinos in Vietnam.
>>151625340you think?>>151625384it is not impossible. Right now there a couple of dozen small youtubers trying to do something close to this. A playlist:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLtyQyH854ha3pZ4CeXlHg8Q3T6MB8v1Q5&si=8iXbtJ2Em7jyfes2
>>151625432Like it's a vietnamese movie about dinosaurs or is it dinosaurs during 'Nam?
>>151625452Some soldiers in Nam fighting dinosaurs in a jungle.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_War
>>151625443Yeah I think you can definitely read something sexual going on here >>151624991like that guy on the floor getting crushed?>>151625096and here you look at the dinosaur on the right? See how it's holding that guy, near it's crotch?
>>151625443Even the kids aren’t safe
anyone read dinosaurs for hire? is it good? what about cadillacs and dinosaurs?
>>151623970Martians might have been real and they didn't want to piss off the Ayys.
>>151625523maybe in card 09 not sure about the other
>>151625773You don't find the leaning tower of Pisa erotic? But it's our most tumescent tower.
>>151625617Dinosaurs For Hire is pretty funny at times
>>151623970Like >>151624093 said Mars Attacks was in the 60s and released mass-market (grocery stores, drugs stores, etc) so they would've gotten into even more trouble. Dinosaurs Attack IIRC was released when there was a specialty market for cards in the 80s (there were trading card shops and comic shops that could sell it and have little pushback), but the problem this time was that people were way more interested in licensed movie/tv/cartoon cards than this.Tim Burton wanted to do a Dinosaurs Attack movie, but then Jurassic Park got released and he scrapped it because he realized it wouldn't look as good
f
my favorite
>>151626513You couldn't see both Elizabeth Tower and Tower Bridge from that angle! This doesn't seem realistic!
>>151625909Suddenly, Gorgo.
>>151625617Only played the Capcom game.
>>151623874When I read this as a kid, it gave me flashbacks of the cards. Especially with the little girl fires a fucking Rocket launcher at a Dino.
theropods are amazing swimmers, you aint safe in the water
>>151625384In between The Land Before Time movie series and the Dragon Tales show, dinos have long gone from being terror lizards to being big goofy friends of children.
>>151626310TOO FUCKING FAR DINOS
if some of the dinos have semi functional opposing thumbs like raccoons, we are truly fucked
>>151623874>It's like CrossedWhere's the rape?
>>151626863heres a little bit
>>151624532>not doing the backsides tooI give this storytime a 7/10
>>151626703This is the only dino shown to be not eating people and causing unintentional harm
Not posting the card backs is lacking, they're even in the archive too
dinoepstein got btfo
>>151627283couldn't find them in a good quality
>>151627339It's a no-spinosaurus,
>>151623884wtf the dad is Quentin Tarantino
>>151623874I love how ridiculous this looks. Was this early enough to have some of the goofy theorized evolution details like hadrosaurs shooting fire?
>>151625617The Cadillacs and Dinosaurs comic (Xenozoic Tales) and cartoon are both amazing.>>151627691Here's a site with the whole thing in readable quality - it could be better but this is a common enough set that the scans are old. I could go back and upload better scans myself...https://www.tcdb.com/ViewSet.cfm/sid/85506/1988-Topps-Dinosaurs-Attack!
anons for whatever reason i cant post more pics, they just made me do twenty captchas in a row like bitch. So talk among yourselves, story time what you want or do whatever, good night y'all>>151629552no this was made in the 80s they should know better lol>>151629824thanks
Do the dinosaurs ever attack Japan and there’s a Godzilla joke
>>151629947yes actually
Holy shit dude. This is awful and awesome at the same time. Kids' stuff used to be hardcore.
>>151628583You could have said spinlessaurus
>>151623991I agree, but it would have never gotten past the ratings board, that or they would have to dumb down the violence and made it lame
>>151630144lots of questionable kids media was made in the 80s all thanks to the weed, coke and meth that run rampant in TV writers rooms, my favorite is this deranged cartoonhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5aPI9jYMCM
>>151630144That was the ethos at the time in the Topps New Product Development division - the cartoony stuff was supposed to be "naughty". Y'ever seen Garbage Pail Kids?
>>151630454Even the movie. I get random flashbacks every year. Thing is, that was satirical grossout humour over an obnoxious fad. This is some misery gorn. And not even at the 90s.
>>151626387>I AM JESUS
>>151625909Why does that shark have such a droopy snoot?
>>151626387FUCK DIGGERS!!1
>>151626862That dinosaur has disturbingly human hands.
Agent Mulder here, please report all dinosaurs to my office or to my coworker the hot little redhead chickhttps://youtu.be/4GIpf5GbtXM?si=CMj4ngc5vS56GUOb
>>151623874people always say silly things like "herbivores are not dangerous" come on, get a grip. My sister worked for a NGO in Africa and she saw herself how rhinos and buffaloes kill more people in a month that lions do in a year.
thanks for posting kino
>>151623874Thats such a brillian comparison lmao
>>151629943>no this was made in the 80s they knew betterShame. Still seems like a fun read.
>>151623874are gory horror cards still a thing? https://youtu.be/t4pJL1eAh00?si=7rUN0s63qndcZ-I1
>>151636156They're mostly on Kickstarter now, major companies don't release them at retail. If you search "Trading Cards" on KS you'll find some mixed in with the pinups and TCGs.
>>151636623i found one about fantasy dinos it is called EARTH SWORD
>>151624032I love that episode
>>151623949yeah these are painted and printed on good cardstockthey don't look like cheap stuff because they weren't
>>151623874What about Primal Rage? Someone should make that
