Crash Bandicoot ReSaurus - A Collector's Guide to Series One (1998)

Hello Bandifans!
This is a video that's been in the works for years. I actually wrote this video a year ago, but I was determined to only use video and photographs from my own collection to demonstrate the figures and their variants, which meant I needed to collect a lot more stuff.
During the creation of this project, I also moved from Japan to the UK and back to Japan again, which delayed it even further.
I dedicate this video to the legendary ‪@luigimario1991‬ who made the earliest ReSaurus figure reviews. I watched them to death as a kid when I started collecting, and his stop motions inspired me to make my own all those years ago! I've reviewed these figures many times on the channel over the years, but I hope this is the final and definitive video!
This was also a huge project to edit and even tougher to research. I can't thank Kenneth Lilly, designer and lead at ReSaurus, enough for all of his immense help with my research.
Follow him on Instagram at @creatusmaximus to learn more about toy lines such as Crash Bandicoot, Sonic the Hedgehog, Gex, and many, many more!
Special thanks go to these guys:
@SathySlade - Leaning Cortex image
@resauruscrashbandicoot - French Tiny image
@itzaustincb2961 - Moe measurement (I shipped mine to Japan, forgetting to measure it)

He spoke in great detail about the first series of ReSaurus. My respect!🧡👍

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you very much, Series two coming soon!

[@bandicootcollector]

This video covers the toys and accessories, but if you want to learn about their DESIGN and HISTORY, Kenneth Lilly's Instagram page is a MUST SEE. He was instrumental in making this video, so show him some love: instagram.com/creatusmaximus

[@vlogzilly]

Well aren’t you clever? It was a great video.

[@bandicootcollector]

@@vlogzilly The Lord himself!

[@butterscotchedd]

I’m excited for this series you’re doing! Awesome video!

[@VDVorteX_YT]

🤯The definitive guide to the supreme toy series of Crash Bandicoot: Resaurus! Congratulations for the enormous amount of details and advice, it's the first episode and you managed to make these 20 minutes fly by! Congratulations also for the editing, the video is constructed really well! Who knows if many will start collecting them from here. Waiting for the video on series 2! 👏🏻

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you so much my friend! I hope collectors can use it for years to come!

[@happy15907]

Cool! I like it!

[@noamskplaying]

just saw your channel and really enjoyed the vid!

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you so much! There's lots more Crash merchandise to come, so be sure to stay subscribed 😆

[@Murcy888]

Amazing Video! Love IT!

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you!

[@BlueTrainProductions-ew8gg]

I’m actually really excited for these videos. It’s really hard to find videos of this quality with toys that are this rare keep making these videos, please

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you so much, I'll keep doing my absolute best! I'll get the S2 video done for next month!

[@luigimario1991]

What a fantastic video! You truly went above and beyond on this! This line is truly one of my favorite of all time and you did them justice! In this particular set, my favorite is the Tiny figure. Which I just learned had a different variant. I need to get that tan mouth one! I appreciate the dedication and kind words toward my channel. I'm truly honored you hold my old work in high regard, as I always felt the opposite way! Your content always meant so much to me! Keep up the amazing work, man! Looking forward to series 2 getting coverage! Let me know if you need any assistance with anything for it! I'd love to help out! And yes, I did use my old account just to write this comment instead of my new one, haha.

[@bandicootcollector]

Oh man, this comment means so much to me. It's all come full circle, and the fact you decided to comment on your original channel is just a cherry on top! I'm so glad you enjoyed the content! I'll try and complete S2 as soon as possible for your viewing pleasure!

[@Tombola1993]

To be fair, Kenneth’s early concepts for Coco’s figure makes her look more like an adult. And since Tiny and Joe have ball jointed heads, it’ll be funny to animate them bopping along to music and have them all raise their arms up and down during a rave.

[@bandicootcollector]

You know, I actually did a 'Harlem shake' Crash Bandicoot video back when that was a thing.

[@Tombola1993]

@@bandicootcollectorOh yeah, I think I remember actually. That was cool. God, I remember the Harlem Shake being a big trend back in 2012/2013.

[@keeferkifflom360]

3:22 I love that crash statue,looks cool asf!

[@bandicootcollector]

I wish we could find out what happened to it!

[@FlatCapWhovian1865]

Love this! 🤩

[@bandicootcollector]

Thank you so much for your support!

[@FlatCapWhovian1865]

@@bandicootcollector No worries, all the different variants are fascinated and seems like your the only one to have documented them.

[@bandicootcollector]

I think so! I've even discovered a few more ready for Series two!

[@rayvenkman2087]

Yet newer toylines can’t even give us a new Tiny Tiger.

[@bandicootcollector]

Not even newer games can do that 😅

[@banisauce4380]

I never noticed the swapped legs with those Crash figures. Unfortunately I own the jet pack figure with balance issues :D would be nice to have flat legs on him. These figures are so rare nowadays...wish I could afford buying one copy of every of these. Anyway hoping to see more of this new series! Especially the plushes!

[@bandicootcollector]

I'll happily trade! Haha!

[@mechagodzilla435]

Great informative video. Having just completed the run of 13 figs MOC it's great to learn a little more about them.

[@bandicootcollector]

Congratulations! Do you fancy getting the variants too?

[@mechagodzilla435]

@bandicootcollector I consider it a full set without the variants but if I'm able to get them at low prices I think I might.

[@bandicootcollector]

@@mechagodzilla435 did you get the moto set carded too?

[@mechagodzilla435]

@bandicootcollector surprisingly I actually have the carded one but not the loose one. That's the last loose one I need along with a few of the missing loose accessories.

[@bandicootcollector]

@mechagodzilla435 No way! Yeah, it would be good for you to get a loose set, too! Complete the loose and carded set. When did you get the moto set?

[@oliverpony]

I always wanted these as a kid, but they were nowhere to be found

[@bandicootcollector]

Where you in the US?

[@skywalker026]

What ever happened to your Moscow parody? “Crystals, crystals, doctor cortex something hahahaha”

[@fritzsmith7148]

More!

[@bandicootcollector]

I'll do my best! 😂

[@noamskplaying]

when will you upload again??

[@bandicootcollector]

Very soon! Part 2 is nearly done! I just moved house during editing

[@gummerhype5255]
