Monster in My Pocket series 6 Dinosaurs

The sixth series of this range from Matchbox was a total of x24 Dinosaur figures, numbered from #145 to #168. Moulded in hard plastic in a range of neon colours with splashes of painted bits here and there.
Again looking past the somewhat off- putting colours the sculpted detail is very good and they seem to be reasonably accurate depictions of the dinosaurs they represent.
I've had a number of these figures for some years so its about time I painted some up.

This is the collectors box containing x12 figures

Triceratops, Tyrannosaurus Rex, Ankylosaurus, Apotosaurus and Stegasuarus.

Below are my painted versions.

Monster Wrestlers in my pocket

A series of some 42 different figures made in the main by Matchbox in the UK. However nine of them were made by Vivid Imaginations and made available as cereal premiums with Kellogg's Frosties in 1995. Similar in size to a 54mm figure with a fairly crude factory paint application. Each figure has its own code and name. I really like the sculpts and so painted a few up.


     
   This is Gizzard the Lizard, Deadly Night Nurse and Steel Slammer  in their original form.

Monster in My Pocket

Monster in My Pocket (MIMP) was a series of rubber and plastic mini figures approx an inch and a half high released by Matchbox in1989. Initially based on monsters from mythology of various cultures, then expanding to other creatures such as dinosaurs, aliens and monster wrestlers.
Produced in solid single colours, initially when viewed the detail on them looks unimpressive, however once primed in matt black prior to painting, I found the detail then becomes more evident.
