5yo DD wants a 'dinosaur set' for Christmas. Any recommendations?

[EweHaveGoatToBeKiddin]

She'll be turning 6 just 2 weeks after Christmas, so not looking for anything pre-schoolish. She wants a set of dinosaur figures. I've saw some tubs in Argos and even Poundland, but i think she's after slightly bigger/chunkier figures, maybe even posable ones or dinosaurs that do something. Her favourite 'breed' is the T-rex so one of those must be in the set.

Any ideas? She saw something dinosaurish advertised on the TV last night, it might have been Playmobil or Lego. But it looked great.

We're getting DD (aged 4) the playmobil dinosaurs. She's obsessed. The sets look good. DD will be impressed that there are baby dinosaurs.

If she is in to dinosaurs then these fossil sets on amazon are brilliant value for money - We got our daughter a set last year for the winter solstice (along with genuine mammoth hair!): www.amazon.co.uk/Advanced-Fossil-Collection-Predatorial-Triceratops/dp/B0065OYH4U/ref=sr_1_4?s=kids&ie=UTF8&qid=1383684563&sr=1-4&keywords=dinosaur+fossils

My DSs like the dinosaur sets in the dino valley range like these, we have a big helicopter with a net under it, the dinos can be 'caught' and put inside the helicopter.

We've bought DS the playmobil dinosaur volcano/t-Rex set. He saw it on display in a shop and it looked really good. I've seen it advertised on TV a lot, so quite possibly the one you've seen.

Playmobile is fantastic - ds had the dino set about that age and STILL plays with it aged nearly 10 - seriously good play value.

These ought to be pretty authentic www.nhmshop.co.uk/dinosaur-models/category.html?pageNo=1 and these are gorgeous www.nhmshop.co.uk/dino-soft-toys/category.html DS2 got the cuddly triceratops for Christmas last year!
