Sure did! That is who I ordered the new Favorite models from too. He is selling them for the cheapest I've been able to find them. That pachy wasn't really a model I originally wanted but it actually isn't too bad, especially considering how small it is. I like it.

only downfall is that it has a tendency to lean forwards

Yup, the legs are too thin and weak to support the weight of the figure. I'm working on a review for it and am going to make sure I include that.

Takama

Here is mine


From the bag


from the Hair Dryer


from the shelf two days later


Gwangi

I think it is useless to try to fix it, it just cannot support itself. Good thing it has a base! Mine stood upright when I got it but after removing the cardboard between the legs it has gradually started to lean.

Wonderful acquisitiosn friend, where have you bought the mako shark?  ^-^.
[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?

Blade-of-the-Moon

Maybe the Pachy needs a cane ? lol  Some sort of prop might help.

amargasaurus cazaui

Seems simple enough, just get two and put em head to head right?
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

Colorata Allosaurus and Brachiosaurus

"you know you have a lot of prehistoric figures if you have at least twenty items per page of the prehistoric/dinosaur section on ebay." - anon.

Nice photos Sauroid. I remember having that same Nothosaurus as well as an orange plesiosaur from the same line. I think I got it when Dinosaurs Alive was here in Manila in the 90's... at Philcite. :D

Zelan

picked these up last week:



The kaprosuchus looked a lot better than I imagined.

Bokisaurus

Finally, the last of 2013 CollectA prehistoric figures have arrived ^-^
Para - this one is so much bigger than I thought, or for a 1:40 scale figure! Very robust for sure :)
Looking at it in person will you only notice a hint of a small sale on the crest! :) I love this figure... really need to get used to this big guy ^-^

More pics of it in the duckbill thread if you want more angles

Next up is Daspletosaurus. Hmm, the head still looks too big for it's body, which is a shame since it really is an interesting pose... it looks more like a juvenile than an adult :)


and finally, Pachycephalosaurus

Makes a nice companion to the Battat figure ^-^

Concavenator

Amazing new acquisitions,Boki!  :)

Jetoar

Congrats for your new acquisitions Boki and Zelan  ^-^.
