* ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' (and therefore, ''Franchise/PowerRangers'') is getting there. They kept the slightly dated looking PeopleInRubberSuits from 70's era Godzilla movies long into the mid-90's. However, as of late they're getting better and better. Though there ''were'' some pretty damn convincing rubber suits. And stuntwork in some of the old ranger fights looks more convincing.

* The special effects in ''Series/KamenRiderExAid'' are very well done, beautifully complementing its retro video gaming themes.

* The special effects in ''Series/KamenRiderExAid'' are very well done, beautifully complementing its retro video gaming themes. The ''Franchise/KamenRider'' series overall has seen some impressive effects work, with standout examples being ''Kabuto'' and ''Den-O'', plus heavy hitters like the Reiwa era series.

* Dinosaurs! from 1985 featured various sequences of stop-motion dinosaurs created by TippettStudios. Sure, they don't look so good compared to the CG dinosaurs of Jurassic Park (which Tippett went on to do), but for the time is was the greatest thing. Also helps that the documentary was hosted by Christopher Reeve.

* The BBC ''Walking With...'' documentary series (consisting of ''Series/WalkingWithDinosaurs'', ''Series/WalkingWithBeasts'', and others) were all about prehistoric animals. The shows used both CGI and animatronics to represent the animals. The CGI was good, but the animatronics were ''amazing''. You'd swear that the filmmakers brought an ''andrewsarchus'' back to life!

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/PrehistoricPlanet'' immediately caught significant attention from dinosaur fans the moment the first teaser dropped for the fact the effects that brought to life the prehistoric menagerie is absolutely stunning and flawlessly realistic on a level no other dinosaur portrayal had captured. Even in close-ups, the fine detailing of the integument, dust marks and tiny scuffs, loose bristles, faint scars, and even individual colour differences between animals of the same species are noticeable, making them all look genuinely alive. No big wonder when executive producer was Creator/JonFavreau, who had recently directed ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing2019'' and ''Film/TheJungleBook2016'', and the highly realistic animal CG for all three was done by Creator/MovingPictureCompany.
