I get it is pretty late for this topic, being mid May now, but better late then never, especially with the new PNSO Acrocanthosaurus, Safari Ltd reveals, etc.

Things I have pre-ordered, and paid for, sorted by oldest paid, to most recent paid:
-BotM Guanlong, Tyrannosaurus (1/35 WWD version), Yutyrannus (paid for last year)
-Mattel Creations Jurassic World Chaos Theory Dr. Ian Malcolm (paid for in May)
-Mesozoic Life Spinosaurus (paid for in early June)
-Mattel Jurassic World Hammond Collection Tyrannosaurus (paid for on BBTS in July, sitting in my pile of loot currently)

Pre-ordered, but not currently paid for yet:
-Eikoh figures (Archelon, Arsinoitherium, Giant Moa, Megaloceros, Meiolania, Platybelodon, Synthetoceras, & Titanis) I ordered with avatar_brettnj @brettnj a bit back
-Favorite soft model Dilophosaurus and Therizinosaurus (also ordered through avatar_brettnj @brettnj )
-Kaiyodo Dakotaraptor, Ornithomimus, Platybelodon, Stellar's Sea Cow, Thylacosmilus, (again also ordered through avatar_brettnj @brettnj )
-Rebor Triceratops Trident (broken horn) on BBTS
-Rebor Tyrannosaurus Kiss on BBTS
-Rebor diorama base 2 pack on BBTS
-The Life Game Kickstarter miniatures made by O @Oammararak (just owe shipping on; I also unfortunately forgot to add this earlier)

Other stuff on my wishlist currently, in order of priority I guess, even if I doubt I'll get to all of this within this year, and of course the short shelf life of Mattel's stuff makes me prioritize them first, especially if its something I really want:
Spoiler
-Mattel Jurassic World Legacy Collection Kitchen pack
-Mattel Jurassic World Legacy Collection Stegosaurus pack
-Mattel Jurassic World Hammond Collection dinosaurs (Ceratosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Triceratops, maybe Gallimimus and Velociraptor)

-Mattel Jurassic World Dominion Therizinosaurus
-Mattel Jurassic World Dominion Dreadnoughtus
-Mattel Jurassic World Hammond Collection humans (Grant, Malcolm, & Sattler)
-Mattel Jurassic World Dominion Liopleurodon, maybe Iguanodon, and Megaraptor
-Mattel Jurassic World Dominion baby Nasutoceratops, Einiosaurus, & Moros
-Mattel Jurassic World Extreme Damage Atrociraptor
-BotM 1/18 scale Dromaeosaurus, Protoceratops, Psittacosaurus, & Velociraptor
-PNSO Acrocanthosaurus, Lingwulong, etc
-Safari Ltd Albertosaurus, Zuul, etc
-CollectA Edaphosaurus, invertebrates, etc
-Eofauna Diplodocus
-Anything else goes
[close]
As far as acquisitions go through the year so far, from oldest to newest, I got the:
Spoiler
-Mattel 2021 Jurassic World Dino Escape Kentrosaurus, and Ouranosaurus, and Pentaceratops (late January/early February I think)
-NECA American Werewolf in London werewolf (early February; not prehistoric, but still one of my most memorable and favorite acquisitions this year)

-BotM ceratopsians (Centrosaurus, Diabloceratops, KS Monoclonius/juvenile Centrosaurus, Pachyrhinosaurus, Pentaceratops, 1/6 Protoceratops, 1/6 Psittacosaurus, Regaliceratops, Styracosaurus, juvenile Triceratops, adult Triceratops, Zuniceratops; mid March)

Pachyrhinosaurus

#1
On my list for this year are:

Safari Patagotitan
Safari Nanotyrannus
Safari Zuul
Safari Albertosaurus
Safari Stygimoloch
Jurassic World Legacy Sarah Harding and Stegosaurus
Hammond Collection Alan Grant
Hammond Collection Ellie Sattler
Hammond Collection Gallimimus
Hammond Collection Triceratops
Hammond Collection Ceratosaurus
Hammond Collection Baryonyx
Hammond Collection Tyrannosaurus rex

I have already picked up:

Jurassic World Legacy Kitchen Encounter Pack
Jurassic World Legacy Isla Sorna Capture Pack
Hammond Collection Ian Malcolm
Hammond Collection Parasaurolophus
Hammond Collection Velociraptor

My list is unusually Jurassic Park-heavy this year, as they're putting out a lot of figures that tie into the original trilogy right now.

Faelrin

That makes sense. And what better year to get into Jurassic Park collecting then with this one, with the new Hammond Collection line, as well as the first figure of Lex, and of course since it's TLW's 25th anniversary this year, we got Tembo and Sarah (& the baby Stegosaurus) finally joining the line. There's two more Legacy Collection reveals coming this way, plus a SDCC exclusive I'd bet, so I wonder what else could be on the way.

Last year was pretty good too with the Nedry set, the Explorer set, and the Apatosaurus, etc. And the Ray Arnold SDCC set too. I'm really glad they are keeping the package theming like they had last year.

So far this year I've picked up:

- PNSO Pachyrhinosaurus (2020)
- PNSO Spinosaurus (2020)
- PNSO Baby T. Rex Aaron (2020)
- PNSO Triceratops (2021)
- PNSO Zhuchengtyrannus (2022)
- PNSO Torosaurus (2022)

The Tsintaosaurus is still on my want list, but considering its price I just can't pull the trigger on that one. I still plan on purchasing the following figures:

- PNSO Acrocanthosaurus
- Rebor T. Rex Kiss
- Rebor T. Rex Tusk
- Safari Ltd Albertosaurus

With the Albertosaurus, I'll probably purchase some other Safari figures as well, like the Daspletosaurus, Einiosaurus, Regaliceratops and others.
But today, I'm just being father

Majungasaurus Schleich 2022

Mammoth Mojo 2022
Smilodon Mojo 2021
Patagotitan Safari 2022
Albertosaurus Safari 2022
Zuul Safari 2022
and Neovenator Safari 2022
Without prejudice to the fact that he buys PNSO or Rebor figures from Mike in everythingdinosaurus apart from some BoTM figure such as the kosmoceratops and the medusaceratops.

I have bought the tsintaosaurus from PNSO for now and I prefer to be prudent in waiting since the expenses that I have only for medical treatment are high.

Concavenator

As of right now, I would say these are the ones on my list for this year...

PNSO Allosaurus
Eofauna Diplodocus

I might still get another figure aside from those 2, but I have yet to decide which.

And this year I already bought:

PNSO Yutyrannus
Eofauna Dominant Triceratops
Eofauna Deinotherium

Plus the BotM Diabloceratops I ordered for Christmas hasn't arrived yet.

Bread

I am trying to slowly acquire things, followed by watching reviews before I really bite the bullet on figures.

-PNSO Machairoceratops (2021)
-PNSO Pachycephalosaurus (2021)
-Eofauna Atlasaurus (2019)
-Rebor Stegosaurus Adult and Juvi, Woodland variants (year?)
-GR Toys Orange Variant Carcharodontosaurus (2021)
-GR Toys Quetzalcoatlus

These are on my most wanted. No particular order. I should also note that I may acquire some of the Hammond Collection pieces.

Jose S.M.

I'm hoping to get some Safaris this year: Deinocheirus, Daspletosaurus, Albertosaurus and Zuul for now.

I'm saving to get one or two PNSOs for Christmas, probably Olorotitan and either Centrosaurus or Styracosaurus.

My attempt to find the best toy of every species

My trade/sale/wishlist thread

Sometimes I draw pictures

suspsy

-BotM DR Tyrannosaurus rex
-CollectA Triceratops
-Safari Albertosaurus
-Safari Zuul

Those are the only remaining 2022 toys I'm committed to. If Eofauna announces that their T. imperator is coming out this year, then I'll add that to the list as well. Along with any yet to be revealed Safari toys that tickle my fancy. As for LEGO, I haven't decided yet. Possibly the Quetzalcoatlus set.

Tsintaosaurus*

Gwangi

#11
This is all I know for certain and is subject to change. PNSO might release something of interest or there might be a sale I take advantage of. Who knows. I collect vintage stuff so I may find an good deal on eBay or in a shop somewhere.  But most of these I'm pretty certain about, and looking at it written out I may want to just keep to this list.

CollectA
Smok
Cooperoceras
Lisowicia
Pravitoceras

Safari
Albertosaurus
Zuul
Nanotyrannus Juvenile T. rex

Mattel
Dreadnoughtus
Megaraptor
Einiosaurus
Rajasaurus
Lioplurodon

Maisie Lockwood set (for the Lystrosaurus)

Bread

Quote from: Bread on May 18, 2022, 12:34:55 PMI am trying to slowly acquire things, followed by watching reviews before I really bite the bullet on figures.

-GR Toys Orange Variant Carcharodontosaurus (2021)
-GR Toys Quetzalcoatlus

These are on my most wanted. No particular order. I should also note that I may acquire some of the Hammond Collection pieces.
Updating list, crossed out a few that I am going to pass on. I am collecting few and must be in 1:30 to 1:40 scale. A little over 1:30 does not bother me especially if I love the figure, but nothing above 1:25.

-Rebor Stegosaurus Adult and Juvinile on the way.
-GR Toys Carcharodontosaurus (orange variant) on the way.
-GR Toys Quetzalcoatlus on the way.

-Eofauna's Atlasaurus, hopefully soon, Dan's Dinosaurs told me that they should receive a shipment of the Atlasaurus soon.

-Rebor's Kiss the Tyrannosaurus, preordered along with base. Most wanted at the moment.

For me, this year and my overall collecting or acquiring of figures is limited. Based on popularity and scale.

Quote from: SRF on May 18, 2022, 06:05:57 AMSo far this year I've picked up:

- PNSO Pachyrhinosaurus (2020)
- PNSO Spinosaurus (2020)
- PNSO Baby T. Rex Aaron (2020)
- PNSO Triceratops (2021)
- PNSO Zhuchengtyrannus (2022)
- PNSO Torosaurus (2022)

The Tsintaosaurus is still on my want list, but considering its price I just can't pull the trigger on that one. I still plan on purchasing the following figures:

- Rebor T. Rex Kiss
- Rebor T. Rex Tusk
- Safari Ltd Albertosaurus

With the Albertosaurus, I'll probably purchase some other Safari figures as well, like the Daspletosaurus, Einiosaurus, Regaliceratops and others.


I'll skip on the Acrocanthosaurus for now. I do consider to purchase the Olorotitan from PNSO instead. Also my wishlist of Safari figures will probably get a little bit longer than I initially thought. :)
But today, I'm just being father

I'd like to get at least one, if not both of the Soma Glow-in-the-dark 1987 dinosaurs that are still missing in my collection: Megalosaurus and Stegosaurus...

Theriz

I don't have a lot of money so I'm saving up for some bigger purchases.

Here are the ones I've already bought/being delivered

Ludodactylus

I think Safari's Zuul is the only figure that's really a must-get for me right now. I'm slowing down on theropods in general.

Grabbing some more of CollectA's Ceratopsians might be a good goal for the remainder of the year for me.
"The most popular exhibits in any natural history museum are, without doubt, the dinosaurs. These creatures' popularity grows each year, partly because of the recent resurgence of dinosaur movies, but also because a skeleton of a full-sized Tyrannosaurus rex still has the ability, even 65 million years after its death, to chill us to the bone." - Ray Harryhausen
