The dinosaur is a Tamiya kit and the rider is a G.I. from a Tamiya M-113..

Here's a few things from an earlier time, back in the late 70s - early 80s:

A Vampire fighter

The recon version, Pathfinder

They were influenced by Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, and Captain Scaarlet.

A salvage shuttlecraft

The main influence here was in the control chair in the middle of the cabin.  That came from an older show called Space Angel.

This is an Arrowhead fighter from "Stingray.  The bomber is in my list of soon to builds.

Anyone ever have one of those any colonies?  This science project has gotten just a little out on control.  To the point the ant's farm is getting ready to launch a rocket and monitor it from the observatory on the top.

Excellent kitbashing and scratching!  I love the Tyrannosaur, it reminds me of the dinosaur statues from the '39 World's Fair, I think it was.  Who makes that kit/figure?

Very nice modifications there- they look like they were meant to be the way you built them! Kudos!
