Managed to find two of the items from the looking for list! Those being the Bullyland Batrachotomus and Starlux Cynognathus. Neither have arrived yet since they're being shipped from Europe but once they do I'll be sure to share. Two more sought after additions to my menagerie of Permo-Triassic weirdos!

Unfortunately I don't have any photos of them on hand at the moment but they're either custom made miniature epoxy sculpts or modified preexisting figure that are modified heavily to represent a different species or overall different look.
In terms of larger sculpts here's a Baptanodon/Ophthalmosaurus, and in terms of figure mods, a Tatenectes converted from a Schleich Plesiosaurus.

Really interesting! These are the spirit of a good dinosaur collection. Off topic, but I've made a few of my own dinosaurs that I'm progressively getting more proud of.

Hey everyone. I have an active search that I'm hoping someone could help with.
I'm looking for the Melbourne Museum Australian dinosaur set by Recur/science and nature. I have seen some of the models, such as the Leaellynasaura/Atlascopcosaurus sold individually on Minizoo (although they have since run out of stock) and ebay. I've checked ebay and the Melbourne Museum online shop to no avail. Can someone help me out or point me in the right direction? I'd really appreciate it!

I've seen this set being sold at the Brisbane Museum as well a few years ago.

In Germany the stock is also running low, but you can still get a few:

I have the Serendipaceratops if you find the others but not that one for some reason.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

I think I have all 5. Not in package, but with their bases and such. Shoot me a pm if you're interested and we can work something out

Hey everyone. I've been slowly amassing a collection of Micro Machines dinosaurs and I'm having trouble getting ahold of the mini Brachiosaurus for whatever reason. Does anyone have one they would be willing to trade/sell or know where I could look to find one? if so, that would be much appreciated!

Hey folks, I'm looking for another obscure sauropod figure again. Does anyone here know how I would be able to acquire the Takara Tomy Gacha Supersaurus? Not the ania supersaurus packaged with the baby and Quetzalcoatlus mind you, but the Arts Gacha THE Earth figure.

This figure.
I've asked a few people if they know and almost every time this set seems to be mysteriously missing from online sellers. Many sellers on Ebay and Aliexpress have other Arts Gacha sets for sale, but this one has consistently eluded me.

Here's an image of the set's promo poster. If anyone could help me with this, please DM me. I would very much appreciate it!

avatar_brettnj @brettnj Maybe you could be of some assistance?

On a related note, I was not aware that TOMY released a new Supersaurus sculpt! Though while neither are particularly good representations of the genus, I do feel that the original captures the excessively long neck better.

Interestingly, this was announced and released the same year as Tomy's other Supersaurus.
I do agree that the ania one is better. The proportions are pretty much spot on, aside from a shrinkwrapped face and stubbier legs than expected. I do own it already and I really like it, but the moveable limbs on this one are really piquing my interest.

Also, I greatly appreciate your reply but I did contact brettnj a few months ago and he said he couldn't find anything  :-\. I'm hoping another forum member might have some extra insight.


brettnj

Just seeing this. Did I send you search links or just tell you my source couldn't find it at the moment you asked?

I asked him again and will update.

I believe you just said that your source couldn't find anything. If you do have more info I'd be happy to listen.

brettnj

Hey CW...

I asked again and my source couldn't find the individual figure but did find one--and only one--set. The cost for him to buy it would be 6800 yen.

If interested, please PM.

Thanks.
Brett
