A Review of the 1:18 Scale Rebor “Raptor” Called “Gunn” by JurassicCollectables
Those talented people at JurassicCollectables have produced another Rebor “Raptor” review. Following on from their very informative video review of the female Velociraptor “Rose”, JurassicCollectables has focused their attention on Rose’s partner, the formidable “Gunn”, a 1:18 scale replica representing a male in the Velociraptor pairing.

Wonderful Painting and Amazing Detail
The narrator comments that the Rebor Velociraptor models, especially “Gunn” are very reminiscent of the Velociraptors depicted in the Jurassic Park III film, which came out in 2001. The pose reminded the video presenter of the pouncing Velociraptor scene in which a pack of these dinosaurs try to grab a person who is hanging from a tree branch. In the video, the beautiful paint scheme is discussed, and the narrator comments on the multiple washes and subtle tones that have been used to colour this replica. Whilst the Rebor “Gunn” is being reviewed, viewers are given the chance to see “Gunn” and “Rose” together and what an attractive pair they make.
The JurassicCollectables presenter states that these two Velociraptors “compliment each other really well”. He states that they are “gorgeous looking Raptors”.

Red Feet – Is that Blood?
During this most informative and helpful video review, the narrator demonstrates that the underside of the feet of “Gunn” are coloured a reddish hue. Rebor certainly make top quality replicas and the attention to detail is amazing. When the model is turned upside down the underside of the feet with their intriguing colouration and fine texture are revealed. The commentator implies that the colouration could have come about as the dinosaur has been standing in the blood and gore from a recent pack kill. At Everything Dinosaur, we are unable to offer an explanation ourselves, but it does give us the opportunity to show the underside of the model revealing the exquisite detail.

Rebor Replicas and Jurassic Park III
The JurassicCollectables video review lasts a little over twelve minutes and it is great to see both Rebor “Gunn” and “Rose” shown together. In addition, the video also compares the earlier Rebor “Winston” with their latest figure “Gunn”. The narrator makes an excellent point about these Rebor figures working well with the classic “Jurassic Park” models.

Great for Dinosaur Dioramas
Rebor has produced several Velociraptor models over the last eighteen months or so. The video review shows both “Gunn” and “Rose” compared to “off colour Alan”, as well as highlighting the hatching Velociraptor blind box series made by Rebor. The narrator explains that these models with their different, contrasting poses would be great for use in dinosaur dioramas. Fortunately, the JurassicCollectables YouTube channel includes video reviews of all the Rebor “Raptors”, so viewers can see the full range of these Rebor figures.
