According to DHL Germany (talked to them this morning) the package has already left the country, so if it never shows up I can blame the American Post instead.

How long has it been now? Its a busy time of year hopefully it will still show up. Im overly paranoid about international post as about 95% of my dinosaurs have come from overseas, but every order has turned up eventually.

Ok,  I got the ColectA Eating T-Rex with base, curtosey of CollectA themselves .

Unfounrtanatly, it arrived with a broken tail.    

but no matter because they are kind enough to send a replacement this week


As a result, I messed with it to learn more about the cahnges

Fun facts about it.



The base is not made to be removeable. The Figure is Glued into it so it is possible to remove it, but not without some minor damage to the toes(in my case it did not matter, because the figure was damaged in the first place) Meraculusly, when you make the figure stand without the base, It stands!     

Right now its being used for painting practice by me

Exactly three weeks (I'm the sender). Phew, a month ago I received a Safari Ltd. Tokay Gecko which took six weeks. And I remember buying from a U.S. DTF member who sent me a parcel which arrived two months later. Of course I hope this one arrives faster!

Oh, by the way, Stefan, I've completely overlooked your post. Congrats on your decision and welcome to the support group for shapeways addicts!

I got a Waiphoon Liopleurodon (finally) and another William Stout book

[Jetoar]

Wiphoon liopleurodon  . Is he too expensieve?

[tyrantqueen]

No, it's not expensive, being a chinasaur, but it's a bit on the uncommon side

[0onarcissisto0]

Just got Shane Foulkes' 1/18th scale Ankylosaurus. Man, she is a beaut!

[postsaurischian]

Please show the brachi when you get a chance, that is one I want to see some "in home" pictures of!

Here you go .......

[Takama]

I hope it aint to much but,   Can you campare that to the Wild Safari one? please

[Gwangi]

Perhaps it is the angle but the neck looks too thin on that Brachiosaurus, particularly where it meets the body. It also looks a bit emaciated. Maybe I've been looking at the Papo Brachiosaurus too long.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I've seen different artists show Brachiosaurs with different neck girths..some more massive other thinner. Not sure which would accurate. Maybe it's a younger animal who has grown into all it's muscle yet ?

[Jetoar]

Thank you friend  .

Hi guys, here's some of my latest ones
Battat Ceratosaurus Version 2 (No tag, but mint condition for less than 40$, yay!)
WWD Ankylosaurus (Already had this one, but mine wasn't all that yellow, I guess the color faded so I bought another one).
Tamiya Chasmosaurus kit (I just assembled it and it's very easy as everyone told me on the Tamiya topic, just gotta find some paint and brushes now... )

[Takama]

I think the Chasmo is beiutiful the way it is

[Jetoar]

Good acquisitions friend. You have a rare lot of figures  .

Nice Battat Cerato score ^^ Its one Battat I have always liked for some reason, I know others who think its terrible but I think it has character.

[Ikessauro]

Thanks guys...
Since the first time I saw painted Invictas my favorite by far was the Apatosaurus. And now I've got it! My first painted invicta. Here's it, arrived a few minutes ago. By the way, thanks Steve!

Hi everyone,

just a quick snapshot to show my most recent acquisitions. It's all Carnegie and Safari lines, I LOVE most of these. The spino is HUGE, I had no idea it was that big. In that respect, the new Carnegie Brachio is too small for my taste, despite being a wonderful figure. I guess Papo's new brachio will stand proudly next to the old carnegie one...

Love the caudipteryx, despite the tripod stance. The kaprosuchus is awesome. So is the cryolophosaurus. The Safari rex is nice, but too "toyish" for my taste. The ramphorhynchus is safaris' best pterosaur (and one of the best pterosaur figure on the market). I guess the new dimorphodon will be in the same league.

[docronnie]

Congratulations guys on your recent and awesome acquisitions!
