It's Basiclly a Dinosaur Tamagotchi, and nevermind, I did a LOT of digging, and found what i Need in 2 websites. An AOL members site and this person called tamenagerie, I found a visual of the stages in their site.
I am glad that you found what you needed. I only buy tamagotchi's now so I am out of the loop on other VPets. I did have a Nano Baby at one time and loved it but that was when they first came out and they were really big.
there's a small store here in hawaii that sells dinkies for $5... as well as those other tamacousins that came out around 97'-98' or so. it's like in the back in a super tiny dust covered corner. no one really knows about it so it's pretty cool.
although i prefer a tama over a dinkie, dinkie dinos are pretty cute.
i glad i heard some one likes thewm in my siggy it say i under virtual pets i own i have 2 of them but i am just waiting to them to turn up in the mail !
