Commissioned my friend to paint this for me. Safari Concavenator with Carnegie colors! The perfect Concavenator IMHO

Drat, I didn't check this thread for a while and Facebook has changed the image URL so I can't see it.


@SenSx those are cool. Options are definitely limited for animals like that in 1:35. Congrats!

I've acquired:

1. Haolonggood grey Saichania.  It's sculpted so well!  The colouration too is high-quality.  It makes me happy to hold and look at it!

2. PNSO Nanotyrannus.  I wanted to see this figure in person as I was unsure if I wanted it.  It's quite high-quality, but I've been able to see it's not for me.  I'll be putting it for sale.

@Sim Dibs on the Nano! (Depending on the price... Car stuff is due)

It's available now for £15.  If that's too much for you I might lower its price, if no-one else wants it at that price.

My latest batch from Everything Dinosaur, arrived very fast and very well protected, thanks to them !




Very happy to finally get this guy after a long wait for Europe, I really like its small size.

A lovely PNSO baby rex




Will use this small Gigantoraptor as a baby one, when someone finally decides to make one as a figure 






Finally got the Rebor Gorrila for a nice duo with the Nanmu V-Rex.
A very nice figure for its price, a great deal, glad I picked this before it is unavailable.

I've largely stopped buying things as of a few months ago, but when I saw this on the shelf I couldn't resist. A lil treat for wrapping up the sale of our old house this week... That will in turn free up more time to do some reviews I've long had planned. But this Baja - the individually articulated neck spines make for fantastic playability with this toy. If they hadn't made an Ichthyovenator this would probably be my favorite dino the "Jurassic" franchise has ever made.

@Halichoeres Here is the Concavenator!

Thanks for re-posting! Glad I got to see ir before FB changes the URL again. It looks great!

@BlueKrono I didn't realize they're articulated. Do they rotate?

@Halichoeres

@BlueKrono I didn't realize they're articulated. Do they rotate?

No, they're on two-way hinges on a track, so they all move in unison. As the neck goes down the spines flare up. A neat effect. The tail also swishes back and forth via a button.

[Prehistory Resurrection]

50% off on all CollectA dinosaur and prehistoric animal figures at one of my local toy stores. Here's my haul;

It was a very good opportunity to expand my collection.

Also something I got quite recently from there:

[Carnoking]

The July Acquisitions featuring the likes of HAOLONGGOOD, EoFauna, Safari Ltd, and even a little something from Forgotten Bloodlines!



It was quite the odyssey but after several delays and more than one attempt, I finally got my big blue boi from HAOLONGOOD, the Mamenchisaurus!



Certainly worth the wait!







Speaking of HLG, I've been falling behind on their recent releases but I couldn't hold out when it came to their beautiful new Stegosaurus and Maiasaura. Unfortunately, both my Stego and Maiasaura calf have some pretty horrendous eye paint, but it's hard to be too upset given how much you get for the price with these HLG figures.





And after much delay, Sue finally made it home! I gotta say, I am absolutely delighted by this figure!



As far as the Safari haul goes, I finally managed to get my hands on their retired Inostrancevia for a price I could swallow. When I think back to all the times I saw this in museum gift shops and passed it up in favor of another dinosaur, I die a little inside.







What's important is that I have one now, and my group of Permian Pals continues to grow!



Speaking of Safari, I took advantage of their recent sales to scratch a growing megafauna itch.





Also picked up a few soon-to-be-retired offerings and figures that I had at some point but parted with for this, that, or the other reason.





But maybe the most exciting addition here is the new Stegouros. First new Safari figure I've gotten in a while!



Maybe someday I'll have all their 2023(?) releases.







Also, almost totally forgot I was getting this 3D print after supporting the Forgotten Bloodlines Kickstarter. I have to say, I'm quite impressed with the quality of the print but unfortunately mine arrived with damaged ears. Oh well, if these guys were as rough and tumble as I'm led to believe, I can't imagine their ears would be too pristine. If I ever decide to paint it up, those would make nice injuries to give the figure a little character.

The dinosaur place in Montville, Connecticut USA still has a TON of Inostrancevia for future reference! IDK how many of you are nearby but I just thought I'd let you know. I can also see if I can hook you up (though it's an hour trek for me)

I'd load up on them the next time I was there if I were you! Certainly wouldn't mind a second as mine came used and has some areas of paint wear.

I was going through some old photos on my phone and saw a picture from a gift shop in 2017(?) where there were about a half dozen of them for 7.95. Oh, what a fool I was!

I can confirm this! Primeval12 has helped me find some now discontinued safari dinosaurs there.

I don't like the idea of stockpiling rare toys. I am willing to help others get some though

Well, in popped my latest HLG gem, the Saichania. I'm including it alongside other ankylosaurids for comparison:

They are all so beautiful S @SidB . I wish I could show them to my sister.
