5903 and 5904 both retail for $2.50 each.

Yahoo! I guess Chris' approximation of $6 was indeed too much, and (nothing
personal, man) I couldn't be happier! I guess we can stock on 'lil dino-
dragons for a lot less... Awright!

Aye, I saw my error and corrected it!  My second guess was $3, and $2.50 is
even better!

...And I got my Island Hopper and All-Terrain Trapper sets today!  They're
rather neat.  I took some pictures of the dinosaurs:

They're pretty cool--the trapper set even includes another baby tyrannosaur.
What's even better?  There's now a Femme Fatale character--an evil *female*
sidekick to the Baron!  I have a shot of her here:

She is, quite honestly, the coolest female minifig I've ever seen (AFOL mods

PS:  I have a related rant on the palaeontological accuracy of the
documentation, but I'll save that.

I took a look at your images and the sets look very good!  I do have one
question and it is in reference to the dino pics.  Are the dinos complete single
units or do they come apart (such as a tail, body and leg pieces)?
Any help will be appreciated.

thanks

ps - I agree with your evaluation of the female minifig.  I want her now!!

(...) The Triceratops has a detachable upper head (hinged like the crocodiles and dragons). The tail segment also comes out; they reused the crocodile/dragon tail for the Stegosaurus but the T-Rex and Triceratops use a new segment. The Stegosaurus (...)
