I have on of these guys, plus a rust monster who sadly suffered a whisker injury in my youth. One of these days I'm gonna snag me some more Chinasaurs - would love to get one of the Chinasaur owlbears!
Thanks for the great scale pic Jarrett Perdue . I called the green one 'Jumper' as a kid. It's a bit like a Xenomorph though predates Alien. Found in brown as well.
Regarding the red one, which I called 'Pincher' (and is also found in white or brown), I asked Kask about it once on the Acaeum and he said it wasn't the umber hulk, but I'm skeptical due to the pinchers.
Demos Sachlas That's right, I was just reading Return to KOTB on the way to #ntrpgcon but forgot about that bulette. It patrols the flatlands around the Keep. Nice to have one in a Holmes-derived setting!
Nice find!
ReplyDeleteGood rescue!
ReplyDeleteExcellent rescue! I still have mine, but my rust monster wandered off.
ReplyDeleteOooo what are the odds of a picture with a dime in it for scale? I've never seen one in person.
ReplyDelete...the toy, not a dime.
He is handsome and misunderstood
ReplyDeleteHolmes had several of these. Here is a detail from the photo on the dust jacket flap of Tales of Peril. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-GYmMeCVhIgs/WbiqR6zBZiI/AAAAAAAAHSU/KIAiU8HsaHwu4B9e-UL3hLkPPGnvOZDlgCLcBGAs/s1600/Bulettes.png

Here's mine with two friends from the same set. I suspect old red there with his pinchers may be related to the umber hulk.https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/Qp8RmNoLgARdgM48n7l_Hwwv_RK9sNH7nCXc4HQeSSOuj2dSSNNPNGcXBNBbXoa2vLgMQPBBfc9loxfiwtHQr7JAbu7FHKKvsVA=s0

ReplyDeleteVery cool find - I recall that John Rateliff put a bulette in Return to the Keep on the Borderlands. I love that picture Sutherland drew, btw!
ReplyDeleteThat was a great encounter
