A long long LONG time ago… like half the rest of the world, I was crazy about virtual pets. My favorite? Rakuraku Dinokun (or Friendly Little Dino). My old blog from around 1996-2000, Penultimatum, was disappeared (and the domain name stolen, STOLEN, by someone else!), but the Internet Archive had bits and pieces… including some of my painstakingly hand-drawn and animated scenes from a Dinokun’s life. Some of these live on in other people’s pages… I made these on a Macintosh. I hadn’t yet used a PC…

Hey I was wondering if you know where I could get a Dinkie Dino.. and Original one too because I bought a fake off ebay and still really want to find the original.
Hi there, I’m also looking for an original Dinkie Dino, desperatly!
If anyone knows please email me at rockhardaccessories@yahoo.ca

yeah, i want my old one back. it was like aqua i think. i bought one off ebay, but it’s all cheap and crappy and it turned out to be a dog, not the dinosaur. $$$7.00 down the drain. i still want a real one, real bad. can you email me too please if you know where to get one?
Why has nobody posted the answer up, if there is someone who knows where you can find an origonal rakuraku dinokun please email me and tell me!!!!!! i’ll pay well!

i just found one! I GOT AN ORIGINAL.
hard, but yaa, i got the white one for $12 off of ebay. you have to make sure you get the EXACT one though. here’s a pic on the original (don’t buy anything else that looks KINDA’ like it, make sure it’s EXACT; this goes for packaging as well): http://www.bookmice.net/fleur/rakuraku/raku-5.jpg
sadly the seller only had one (he found it in his basement when he was cleaning it or something), so good luck finding one.
Congratulations on finding one! What wonderful news!
I need to dig out my two someday…
I found some authentic dinkie dinos for few bucks. The seller is a very good ebayer! Hope this helps out, cheers.
I wonder what it is about the Dinokuns that make them popular still, fifteen years later? Someday, I’ll dig my old ones out and see what it hatches into. Thanks for the eBay link!
