This fish?

If so then correction: that fish is not in my inventory. I think I confused it with this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Kaiyodo-Choco-Egg-Furuta-Japanese-Ricefish-Oryzia-lovely-bird-/121398230282?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c43e5fd0a which is incidentally still available.


Oh, and my newest acquisitions. Didn't show up on the other post for some reason.

Collecta have done a great work this year  .

No, that's a ricefish. The archerfish is much different.

Who is that Dimetrodon made by? There is something odd about it--maybe the posture?

[stargatedalek]

I don't think its a dimetrodon (legs are way to long and skull to narrow)

[Roselaar]

Received these gems today:

Fabulous set! One of Kaiyodo's finest. Only thing that bugs me is the Kronosaurus skeleton: I can't get the head attacked to the neck properly. I dare not force the parts into place because they seem so fragile and my hands are so stupendously robust.

Sorry for the mis-prompt. Don't know my fish all that well. Will attempt to find.

[sauroid]

kinda looks like Bullyland's Arizonasaurus

I have the Arizonasaurus. It is not the Arizonasaurus. For one thing the pose is wrong. For another it predates the hinged jaw and legs of current Bully figures. Unless there's a new lesser version now.

[Takama]

Its a Dimetrodon made by Lontic

Great set, I need to order one myself. Don't force the skull, I did that once and snapped one of my kaiyodos. Himmapaan helped me with some others by gently slicing off some plastic with a knife until they fit, but then Himmapaan has an incredibly steady hand!

[stargatedalek]

I've gotten a few over the years that I had to crazy glue together

[Roselaar]

I'm surprised you haven;t ordered one of these beautilful sets yet, Dr. Admin! It seems to be right up your alley.

I take it you also appreciate the marine reptile I acquired today, if not the other creatures pictured:


The Mosasaurus is gorgeous. I even gave one to my mother who's a sucker for Mosasaurs, for family reasons. The Therizinosaurus is splendid too. The Theropods are okay, but it seems they are already gradually bending forward because of the soft material they are made of. Hopefully they won't end up as warped as my Collecta Pachycephalosaurus, who's head is almost touching ground by now.

The WWD figure I got a few weeks ago, but I hadn;t taken a picture of it yet.

[stargatedalek]

if I were in your position I'd hurry and add some extra support to them, I've heard nothing but bad things about them bending over very quickly
that being said they look amazing, especially the juv tyrannosaur
that mosasaur and therizinosaurus are really something else, but I can wait for them a while longer
I've never seen that packaging variant of the WWD Patchi, it seems to lack the electronics?

I got a lucky score on a Kaiyodo marine reptile set today
only $25

(huge thanks to Dr Admin for the link to this amazing lot)

[sauroid]

very cool hauls guys
mine:




Bandai

(Allo wont stand on its feet)

Some gifts of my birthday that I received yesterday  .





They are really cool  .

Yeah, they come in both regular and electronic variations, and the regular ones are packed like this. I get the feeling they were released later in the run, took a while for me (and people on these forums) to notice them.

It's not a juvenile T-Rex though, it's the Bistahieversor. Unless you mean the Saurophaganax. I hope to get the little Rex soon too though, he's adorable.

I've had no problem with any of mine.

And I'll admit-- I was accidentally sent the juvenile T.rex for my store, but I'm pretty pleased with it actually--it's a great, fuzzy little thing.

Going in for some surgery next week and received a few "get well" presents early: Carnegie Brachiosaurus (new one), Wild Safari Dracorex and Ceratasaurus, Battat Edmontonia and the Papo Carnotaurus. More dinos than I have acquired in almost two years.

**happy dance**

[Quen]

So both of my newest additions are Battats! They are also my first Battats!

I honestly did not intend to buy anything when I went to Target, but it didn't look like anyone had bought any of the dinosaurs yet, and I couldn't just leave them all there looking unloved and with me feeling guilty for not making a contribution to the awesomeness that is the return of the Battat dinosaur line, so I got one! I like how they both have the same wavy pattern on their tails!

[Photo lost to Photobucket Hell. It showed the original amarga with the nashi.]

[EmperorDinobot]

Good stuff y'all!

I've been wanting to get into those Playmobil dinos for a looong time, especially want the Brachiosaurus.
