I actually got these back in December and January, but I've been so busy, I haven't been able to post the pictures!
In case it wasn't obvious before, sauropods are my favorite!

Then get yourself new Bullyland Europasaurus and the "Tamba sauropod" if it should show up. Both are nice and accurate and two of my favourite ever sauropods.

The 'pods are cool but I'm even more jealous of your Don Glut encyclopedias >:D Haha nice stuff :)

Quendrega alright if I ask you a qustion :)

I see you have a Geoworld T-Rex Skeleton, Now Was this an assembly kit, or a pre made model?

That wouldn't be a bad skeletal model if it wasn't for the head. And the lack of gastralia...

It's an assembly kit that's supposed to just snap together, but the rib cage section on mine really doesn't want to stay together, and I had to use a bunch of rubber bands, which you can't see because they're in the back, to hold the thing together. I've looked at reviews of it online, and I found that I'm not the only one with these problems, as others have had to hold theirs together with wire or glue.

Yeah, the reviews are terrible for this model, though I feel sorry for everyone who bought it. Because I bought mine preassembled and it stays in one piece. I tried looking for the pre assembled model online for those who want the Skeleton without the troubles of the kit, but I cant find it(FYI I bought mine at a Museum)

Lucky!  :P I am not looking forward to the day I have to change out all those rubber bands!

Thanks! This might sound silly, but I've had that particular spot in my display reserved for the Battat Diplodocus since I first started collecting.

And thanks to stargatedalek for helping with the IDs!


stargatedalek

No problem, wonderful collection you've got.

I don't think that's silly, that diplodocus is a real holy grail.

Thanks! The Brachio must be the older version, then. Older sauropod models usually have a lot of charm, IMO. :)

Check out my new Spinosaurus figure: http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=5099.0

Yeah, if there's any figure that deserves a reserved seat, it's the Battat Diplodocus. Very nice setup.
