I admit, I was introduced to this through a webcomic based on toy nerdery, but that doesn't make the Skelelfex line any less badass. When I was a kid, the best we had was balsa wood cut outs that slid together and were held in place precariously through weak friction and pressure. If you were able to get one together without breaking a part or eight, you couldn't do more that put it on a shelf and dust it occasionally.
The Skeleflex dinos, on the other hand, are plastic and are not only flexible and sturdy enough to pose, and the big old T-Rex skeleton plugs into a remote control doohicky that lets you control it's movements. That, my friends, is damn cool.
Minor Nerd Footnote: the official Skelelfex website actually uploaded video to YouTube and uses the embedded YT clip as the official website video. I don;t know why, but that struck me as pretty forward thinking, not to mention practical.

Thanks for the review!
Glad you like Skeleflex
Minor nerd answer: Hey, let them pay for the bandwidth :) Plus, it's much easier to share and embed on other sites that way...
Cheers,
