Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

Good photograph. I see the true colors of this figures. Thanks for share  .

Hadn't noticed the red stripes on the Brachiosaur's neck before. Apparently there's more to its paint job than most people would think.
I came upon two of these at my local Papo store, but I didn't buy them because I know I can get them cheaper at my regular address. I'll wait a while longer.

My PC is down for repairs, so I won't be able to post more JP updates for a week or two. But at least I can finally finish sorting this giant new acquisition out. You won't get rid of me so easily, there's much many updates still to come, even though I can imagine most of you are sick of me hijacking this thread.

I never noticed the red either. It really is a beautiful model, just look at its head! Is the jaw articulated?

[Bokisaurus]

Some new additions to the collection
Jurassic Hunter by Geowords

T-rex, Carcharodontosaurus,Gigantosaurus, Baryonyx

Ornithomimus and Caudipteryx

Joining the flock

And Diplodocus


And from another set, the Dino Dan collection. They make a good companion sets Very similar in style and size

Cory, Brachio, and Stego

Carno, Veloci, and Trike

Both of these sets comes in packages:
Geoworld Jurassic Hunter in Bags

And Dino Dan came in Boxes

These figures are interesting and larger than your standard Safari or CollectA. Mixed bag for sure, but I like them. Some really cool ones in the set.

And last, but not the least, some mammals




Oh yes, and some fish

The jaw is a separate, glued on piece (I believe this model is comprised of 4 pieces), but it is not articulated. Even though it is not articulated and painted a grayish drab green and tan (which I like), it has a lively look to it - and powerful - and graceful too, in a way. I must confess it is my instant favorite Brachiosaurus model. It has character. (And at least it is not painted lime green and bright red  ) Sure, it is a toy Brachiosaurus model, and not so much a scientific model (in that respect, I like the Carnegie Brachiosaurus best, notwithstanding its color scheme), but it is arguably the best toy Brachiosaurus around. Anyway, apart from the inaccuracies and the things we do not yet know about these animals (like color), we could call this Papo model Giraffatitan brancai to separate it from the Carnegie Brachiosaurus altithorax

[Gwangi]

I see, thanks. I didn't think it would be articulated but it kind of looked like it was. It is a beautiful sculpt. I agree that despite anatomical flaws it is the best brachiosaur on the market.

What is that one meant to be?

[Libraraptor]

Hey, Boki! Cool new addition!! I love the Caudipteryx very much! Did I see a custom painted AAA Gallimimus on one of the pics?!

[Bokisaurus]

Thanks, the Caudipteryx is one of my favorite from the line.
Yes, that is indeed a repainted AAA galli The original one look so much like big bird with it's yellow paint

Warthog trying to be a babirusa? LOL! It's made by AAA I believe, it's a cool figure

[Bokisaurus]

Taking a break from toy figures, I got this life-size cast/replica of a saber tooth It's really cool and impressive!
Made out of resin/ceramic,so it's heavy and fragile (had to repair some areas).

With some of my saber tooth figures for size comparisons


Cheers!

Yesterday I bougth a WWD lot of figures: Torosaurus, Polacanthus, Iguanodon, all for 36 euros  and the family of my girlfriend have bougth in Ebay  the figure of Sentinel Prime leader class for me as Christmas gift  .

[tyrantqueen]

I picked up the Tamiya Brachiosaurus, although I admit I bought it more for the juvenile than anything else.

[Jetoar]

Good Acquisitions! I have only the T-Rex. I would like to finish my T-Rex some day.

[sauroid]

[Nebuloid]

Hi, seems this forum had moved. Needed to create a new account !?
Anyway look at this box that arrived today !





Love the little kosmoceratops , very nice little figure. Oh and my giganotosaurus says gigantosaurus on the bottom, is this normal ?

[DinoToyForum]

Yes, we started afresh here at V2 early in the year Checked my Giganotosaurus, it is labelled correctly, on my figure at least
