Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

[Chad]

I think it's just a generic ceratops pose is all.

[Ikessauro]

No, I wasn't. I think either Schleich copied DeAgostini, or they used the same piece of art as inspiration.



Or maybe it's the angle of the photograph that gave me that impression.

I think they used the same art as inspiration too. For the De agostini model it's just obvious, as they accompanied the magazines were the art was published.

Happinet Para

Hasbro JP2 baby T. rex

[Patrx]

Wow ! Nice paint job Patrx !

Thanks, Chris!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Very welcome !

I might be tempted to borrow this to do a 1:1 version for the Park..

I had considered Oviraptor but this guy could work too.

[SBell]

Finally got most of the Mojo 2013 last-releases, plus a few 2014:



Although more for the kids than me, their first attempts at mythological creatures are pretty impressive. And yes, they will be in the store soon enough as well (I'm having some technical things going on )

[Roselaar]

These just in:



A diverse bunch of dinosaurs, but the figure I was after in particular stands out quite prominently.  He's got some paint wear but is still quite beautiful (and large!).

The brown Carnegie Rex surprised me, as it had a different paint job than my own. A few chinapterosaurs and a Safari Phoenix (or something) were also included to my surprise. The little Ankylosaurus needs indentifying: it's probably a Chinasaur, but it doesn't even say Made in China.

Safari Dunkleosteus and Leptoceratops will be up for sale/ trade.

Good score for a very decent price!

[docronnie]

Congrats everyone on your excellent hauls! 

Excellent catch Roselaar!

Bandai Dinosaur King Illustrated Book 4 Baryonx - April 2008


My second Kaiyodo Coca Cola Jurassic Park III Triceratops


Kaiyodo Coca Cola Jurassic Park III Compsognathus

TFL! 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Nice hauls !

[Megalosaurus]

Finally got most of the Mojo 2013 last-releases, plus a few 2014

I like the Thylacine & the Emu.
I Hope someday a company make a Moa 1:40.

[Jetoar]

Lovely acquisitions  .

[postsaurischian]

  Vitali Klatt Olorotitan (nothing glued, the parts are fitting pretty good)






  Vitali Klatt Australopithecus (again nothing glued, this figure is only about 4 cm high)

[Nebuloid]

Wow beautiful Olorotitan ! Would love to see that finished and painted one day. 

[Roselaar]

Is that Olorotitan a fairly widely available kit? If so, I'll have to kick that particular species off the Unique Species list...

Yeah, I've seen quite a few places selling it.

Yes it is. Urzeitshop is selling it for example: http://www.urzeitshop.de/Nach-Marke-Hersteller/Vitali-Klatt/

It's the third Olorotitan I know of. The first two were made by Safari (Sue mini set)* and by Manuel Bejarano for Shapeways.
Angie Rodrigues had also started to make one, but didn't finish it (http://art-by-angie.blogspot.de/2011/04/lots-spotsolorotitan-update.html).


edit: *mix-up by me, corrected by amargasaurus cazaui: The first Olorotitan was made by CollectA, not Safari.

Trying to trace this all Helge. My Olorotitan was made by Collecta-a.......and the only Sue mini set I know was the two boxed sets, one containing Sue and Anatotitan, and the other had Sue and Torosaurus. I have these in the boxed version, but they were also sold lose as well. To add a bit more irony these figures, including the stunning Torosaurus sculpt were all done by our own Doug Watson.In fact I have my sets because several years back he helped me get them.
  So I am unsure which two Olorotitans you have referenced unless you meant the Collecta and the Anatotitan? And yes, the model on Shapeways and the Collecta piece are enough to insure it is not a unique species any longer.
