I've acquired the Haolonggood Wuerhosaurus too and I like it!  I wouldn't have thought it and the Haolonggood Wuerhosaurus could represent different species until avatar_Flaffy @Flaffy suggested it!  PNSO has a natural talent for stegosaurians, I hope there will be more from them in the future!

S @SidB, I know you like having your figures in roughly the same scale, so I was wondering if you've considered getting some of Safari's toob figures?  There are some small species among them that are very good and which are not made by anyone else in small scale.

To be honest, avatar_Sim @Sim, I really hadn't even considered that, though not for any particular reason. It just wasn't on my radar screen. Is there a particulr toob or two that you'd recommend?

S @SidB I recommend the following: Feathered dinos toob, Prehistoric crocodiles toob, Prehistoric sharks toob and Prehistoric sea life toob.  They all contain species which are around 1:35 scale and go well with larger figures, although you may want to get some repainted.

Awesome, thanks for this tip, avatar_Sim @Sim.

I finally received my HLG Brachiosaurus, but as you can see, it's a little different version...







Comparaison with before:



I'm so happy with it.
Lips were successfully added dinosaur_models_artworks, thanks a lot to him.
Eyes were also repainted as the pupils were too big.

I could have asked a new paint job, but I actually like the original red colors, as it reminds me our actual giraffes, those are the giraffes from their own time, and it looks more striking next to my blue Argentinosaurus.
A brown one true to JP 1 Brachiosaurus colors could have been cool, but I alwready had a brown Brontosaurus.

I was pleasantly surprised to get that little guy with my favorite variant color although I did not pre-order:

I like that lipped look.

ceratopsian

A very successful modification, avatar_SenSx @SenSx.

Elengassen

A huge improvement IMO – wish the original looked like this!
One day we will know the truth about Spinosaurus... but not today.

Carnoking

You know I'm one of those who didn't actually mind the exposed teeth but dang if that isn't an undeniable improvement!

Birthday haul

Shrek 4 is an underrated masterpiece

Libraraptor


AcroSauroTaurus

Got the Eofauna Ankylosaurus. Not sure if it's just mine, but the paint on the underside of the tail doesn't go all the way... The paint is off on the feature scales(on the thighs) and the hands have too many claws, but hopefully that's just mine.

Some armored (Haolong)goodies of my own arrived today, courtesy of AliExpress (with a stray Vitae thrown in for good measure):



There's a little warping on some of the spikes, but otherwise they're all lovely - but MAN, these Haolonggood boxes are getting tight! I nearly tore off a couple of flaps just trying to open them.


Flaffy

I still stand by that the Vitae ankylosaurs are some of the best on the market. The Zhejiangosaurus is very elegant.

Vitae was a flame that burned brightly for a brief but memorable while. Too bad that circumstances prevented their continuation.

Mellow Stego



Feels like forever, but finally got my Al
Keep calm and love dinosaurs

Another Vitae arrival to join the armor bros from yesterday:


SidB

Nice acquisition, avatar_Fembrogon @Fembrogon . Vitae's Jinyunpelta is one of my favorite ankylosaurids. Good to get one while the getting's still good.

Faelrin

Guess who came? As I mentioned before in one of the relevant threads, I read that this one was not going to be restocked, and is nearly sold out everywhere now. Luckily Everything Dinosaur had it. And here it is:

I guess I'd better hop on that train very soon too, then; this was one of my most anticipated from the line but I wasn't in a spot where I could afford the preorder...
