Chap Mei knock-offs at Macy's.

This year they doubled in price, the large sets were $39.99 last year and are $79.99 this year! 😳

Wow, almost double. Being a collector is getting to be an expensive hobby.

Later Chap Mei knock-offs found at $.99 Dreams.

2 of these molds did not get US releases before TRU went under so it was amazing to finally see them in person!

At $8.99, they are a bit more expensive than I care for, but I had to grab the 2 I have never seen before (Dilophosaurus and Ceratosaurus).

"Animal Planet"/Chap Mei knock-offs at Burlington!

There were 4 different sets at the Burlington I was at, but there may be 2 more based on the dinosaurs shown on the back of the box (image in next post.). These look to be pretty high quality knock-offs and 3 of the 4 sets had harder to find playset pieces in them, including the highly sought after wooden trap!

These sets are $24.99 + tax each.
