Wholesale Dinosaur Toys in Bulk

MOQ is 300–500 pcs per design, not per order. A normal first order is roughly 100 designs at 300 pcs each — about one 20GP container. Party supplies and very small items start at 1,000 pcs per design because of setup economics. Custom moulded designs run 300–500 depending on complexity. One thing worth saying plainly: dinosaur toys are bulky for their price, so a 20GP holds noticeably fewer units than the same container of small toys. If you need a specific quantity that does not fit these numbers, tell us the design and quantity and we will tell you honestly whether it is workable.

The range is wide because the category spans very different products, so it is more useful to price by type: soft vinyl and small plastic figures sit at the lower end, realistic articulated figures in the 8″–16″ band sit in the middle, and RC, robot and ride-on lines sit at the upper end. Exact figures move with plastic prices, order quantity and function, so treat any single number as unreliable and ask for a quotation against specific designs. What matters more than the unit price is how many units fit in the container — that is what determines your landed cost. Our commission is 5–8% of order value, shown as a line on the quotation so you can compare our FOB number directly against a factory’s own.

Four levels. Custom colour and packaging — re-moulding in your colour or printing your own box, no tooling cost, the right first move for testing the category. Custom retail packaging — box, hangtag, polybag, or blind-bag format; blind-box packaging is worth a look even for standard figures because it changes the retail presentation completely. Function changes — light-up bases, different sounds, different articulation or accessory counts, which lifts you out of direct price comparison without tooling. Fully custom mould from your own drawings, with a mould charge of roughly USD 800–3,000 per design, MOQ from 300–500 pcs, and 20–30 days of development across usually three sample rounds. In a category where the same product is generally available from four factories within a hundred kilometres, the custom mould is the only durable advantage available.

Yes. We supply against EN71-1/-2/-3 and CE for the European Union, ASTM F963 and CPC for the United States, and UKCA for the United Kingdom. Two details matter specifically for this category. First, articulated limbs and removable accessories trigger under-three testing that is not optional, and a failure at customs is a total loss on that line rather than a delay — so testing is planned at sample approval rather than after production. Second, every new colour and every new material needs its own testing, which is worth knowing before you add a second colour to a range. RC and electronic lines additionally need battery and EMC documentation. Certificates are issued per factory and material combination, so repeat orders from the same factory carry no new cost. See our Amazon CPC guide and the full ASTM / EN71 / CE reference.

They can be, but they behave differently from hard plastic and you should plan for it. The retail price point is higher, and so is the transit failure rate, because the failure modes are motors, batteries and gearboxes rather than moulds. That means your effective margin needs to survive a few percent of returns, and your packaging has to be specified for the electronics rather than for the toy. They also bring extra compliance work — battery and EMC documentation on top of the toy testing. Buyers who plan for all three do well with the category. Buyers who treat an RC dinosaur like a plastic figure discover the problem at the retail review stage, which is far more expensive than finding out at the quotation stage.

Three ways. First, planning by cube rather than by piece count — this is the biggest one, because dinosaur toys are bulky relative to price and container space is charged by volume. We will tell you how many units of a given design actually fit in a 20GP before you commit. Second, consolidation: designs from several factories come into our warehouse and ship as one consignment, which spreads customs and documentation cost across more units. Third, the right mode — ocean FCL for volume, air express for small or deadline-driven orders, DDP if you want landed cost fixed. For ride-on and large-figure lines, freight is often the deciding factor, so ask for the numbers before committing rather than after. We quote by cube for exactly this reason.

Catalogue items sample in 5–7 days; a custom mould takes 20–30 days of development across usually three sample rounds, then 7–20 days of production after approval. Ocean transit is roughly 25–40 days to Europe and the US East Coast; air express is about 7 working days. Easter, Halloween and Christmas lines need 4–5 months of total planning — a later order means paying a premium or buying another customer’s leftover stock with no design control. We ship DDP to FBA fulfilment centres in the US, EU and Australia, and handle the SKU barcoding, carton labels, suffocation-warning bags and the compliance documentation Amazon requires before stock is released, which is where most toy shipments actually get held up.

It depends on the channel more than the product. Realistic articulated figures have the broadest appeal — children, gift buyers and adult collectors all buy them, and they work in gift retail as well as a toy aisle. Party and birthday supplies are the highest-turnover item in the range and the cheapest way to enter the category, because the purchase is impulsive by default. Puzzles, excavation kits and STEM sets carry the highest relative margin because they compete on educational justification rather than price, and they move out of impulse. Soft vinyl figures sit on the adult collector side where the same shelf space earns three to four times the price. Dinosaur plush sells to younger children and gift buyers at a higher achievable retail price. If you tell us your channel and target retail price, we will tell you which of these is worth your container.
