Hi everyone!
Not exactly new to the forum (i've been reading you for quite some time) I feel now the envy to introduce myself and contribute more to the forum and it's great atmosphere (I'll eventually post pictures of my personal collection...).

Like most of you, my fascination for dinosaurs started as a kid and has been with me ever since (I am now 35) but I really started collecting them 4 / 5 years ago after a visit to the shop of a local dinosaur museum. At first toys (Papo, Safari, Collecta, Kinto Favorite) & books, later some statues (Sideshow) and then as it was starting to feel like I was running out of supply, I came across this forum (the previous version of it)!

Thanks to you all, I've learnt about older figures (Invicta, Battat...), some more exotic ones (Kaiyodo, Colorata...) that I had never heard of before by following with envy some of your collections, and after dreaming for months in front of the dinosaur art section, my collection is about to take a new turn as I have ordered my first Shane Foulkes resin models!!!

My collecting style is simple, I only get the figures that appeal to me, not following a line in particular, I am as well not too obsess about accuracy.
But as mentioned above I'll tend in the future to move away from "toys" to go more towards resin models.

Anyway, that's it! I am really looking forward to getting more involved in this forum!
Along the way, please pardon any English mistakes I might do, as it is not my mother tong...  :)
