I think we're all slowing down a bit Boki.. nice haul !

[docronnie]

You're slowing a bit because you have plenty of figures already (Boki and Blade)?

I think we're all slowing down a bit Boki.. nice haul !

I know the feeling--I remember hunting down Dinotales and such--now I'm a little jealous when I see people that are actively hunting for these little gems that I got 10 years ago. Sometimes it's more about the hunt than the catch!

I am not, however, jealous of what some of them cost now...

And no, I have no plans to get rid of them and start over

[amargasaurus cazaui]

My newest acquisition, a very unique piece courtesy of Martin !! The pose and base are superb.

Is it the Carnegie Elasmo reposed and repainted?

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Looks like it to me..pretty cool ..same colors as Malcolm's Mureanasaurus too...

In my case, it has always been the hunt.  Hasbro Marvel collectibles here in my country are now distributed to collectors who line up for them.  The hunting at toy stores has diminished greatly! I miss those days ... the adrenaline rush and all the mind games rolled into it.

Very beautiful model, amarga! Congrats!

Wonderful custom  .

I received my 1/25 Cryolophosaurus from Shapeways today This model is by the talented Gorgonzola. The model for sale on Shapeways' site is in 1/40 scale, but I commissioned this in a 1/25 size so that it would fit in with my Carnegie Cryo.





I had a bit of a fiasco with this model, but I'm very happy to own it. I had to wait a long time for the printing process (about two weeks) and then I received an email from Shapeways telling me that the toe had been broken off. So I requested a reprint, and a few days later I received a new model.

If you're curious, here is a photo that Shapeways sent me of the broken rejected model

TQ, the Cryo is beautiful! What material did you order it in?

[tyrantqueen]

Thanks Postsaurischian and Sepp. It was ordered in White Strong and Flexible.

I think it was 22 euros or so. Not too bad.

[postsaurischian]

Cool! I wonder what Gorgonzola is doing to keep the prices low (the differences between his prices and others' are noticeable).
He should tell the trick to the other designers !

It goes very well with that carnegie crylo, are they going to be friends?

Yeah! They could be a mated pair. Like the Cryolophosaurus couple in Dinosaur Revolution
