Need help finding....

[Lanthanotus]

Hello community,

forum member UK recently posted images of some very nice (and presumably rare) Brumm metal figures (link to picture).

I was trying to lure out some of those figures from the depth of the internet and presumed there's a lot of metal figure collectors, but it seems there's just "Ü-Ei" collectors out there (those had a great variety of metal figures back in the days). So having searched the net for the obvious terms (Brumm, metal, tin, figure, vintage, etc. in all varying combinations) the best I came up with were some Brumm automobiles (from more recent years than those dinosaurs date) and those links were dead ends unfortunately.

So, if anyone has a link or advice whom to contact (person, community, club) or terms to search more properly.... or if you got something to offer (as I found no info I as of yet got no clues of prices/values), please shoot

Thanks in advance.

Demarxo sold many Brumm in the past months.
Now there is one in an auction:

Thanks Robin, that really helps. Though I rarely buy from the US cause of the insane shippings prices (and possibles taxes) I'll keep an eye out at demarxo. Had heard this name here and there on the forum, but never checked out the store.

Anyone any advice for a German or European site? It seems weird to have non traceable in Germany, but maybe it's the same as with some of those Technofix sets, that are "easiyl" available in the US, but very rarely in Europe....

I no longer own my Brumms but still have the flats in my thread. I had the complete set but let them go to a dedicated collector. I attach an image of a complete brumm set and also the associated and very rare poster. I still have some spares which we could trade may be. The image is of a folded version but mine are rolled.

Your well placed to,find the pewter flats as most came from Germany.

Good luck.

That was a really unique and nice collection. When were these figures produced? When you get them you will write a review about them?

Hi and thanks for the links, Robin , I'll sure keep an eye out on those, and may it just be to get an estimate on the price. With combined shipping it would also be an option. I heard alot of demarxo but never really searched him up... however, I still seem not to be able to get behind the logic of ebay search. I frequently search for several kind of brands or species, on national and worldwide ebay, however, for example starlux figures (or at least the bigger bunch of them) are only shown up if I visit ebay.fr, despite them being labelled correctly and me typing correctly... same for other things.

Try zinnfiguren dinosaurier or brumm dinosaurier on your native eBay.de.

I think this is a problem on eBay's end. Even if sellers make their listings available in other countries, I sometimes only see them if I search on the countries they're listed in. At various times when I've been looking for things I've gone to ebay.au, ebay.fr, ebay.fr, ebay.de, and ebay.co.uk. It can be pretty annoying.
