Hello friends, I started collecting about three years ago after realizing that "hey, I'm an adult and still like dinosaurs." Finding this forum really catalyzed it for me and introduced me to companies that make paleo-accurate models. I'm still tickled that there's enough demand for our niche hobby to support such a vibrant community.





Other than dinosaurs, I like houseplants and gardening, cooking, and video games.



I thought I would post, because I just got the HLG Argentinosaurus in yesterday and I need to tell someone. Wow! Geez it's bigger than I thought it would be. (BTW, if anyone has a spare Huayangosaurus I would appreciate it. I missed the preorder window because I was indecisive about what color I wanted  :*D ).

Very impressive start to your collection. When you're delighted with what you collect, yes, you just have to share that with other people.

Welcome to the forum, or at least posting, judging from your title. Wonderful collection and mix of brands going on.

If that's the Argentinosaurus, that must be a truly massive shelf!

Welcome! Fantastic collection. Funny, it looks like we have similar tastes regarding Haolonggood figures, we've mostly picked the same color variants!

It's actually a built-in for a CRT TV. Obviously it's being re-purposed for a better pursuit.
