Haven't been on a proper forum since Neopets

[allimancer]

Hey all! I'm not sure if I'm doing this right, as I haven't really been on a proper forum since Reddit kind of took over the space, but I'm glad to see one still kicking!

I've been a lurker on the blog (enjoying the posts but never got around to commenting) since around 2018 and have a small, but growing, collection of PNSO, Safari, BOTM, and a few Papos (my gateway figure to collecting again as an adult was a Papo Dimetrodon I found at American Science and Surplus for 4 dollars). They live in my china cabinet along with a bunch of cool rocks and fossils I've found (mostly crinoids, corals, byrozoans, and brachiopods).

I've loved dinosaurs since I was a little kid with my sets of vintage rubber dinos in the 90s (I wish I still had them, but they were also likely full of lead paint...). I think discovering the YDAW series and this blog helped spark some of the passion again. I might not post a ton, but you might see me pop in for a comment or post here or there. Thanks!

Yes, good for you on taking the plunge. It took me about four years before I finally did so.

Welcome aboard! I'm guessing from your handle that you are a Brandon Sanderson fan, yes?

Welcome to the forum! I have a few brachiopods and crinoid pieces myself. Big fan of Paleozoic invertebrates!
