Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

[Hynerpeton]

Are they tags?

Those are little booklets that they used to make for the individual lines to put with the Mountain displays (like the Monterey Bay and Smithsonian Insects as well). Now they just do a larger booklet for the entire Safari line.

Oh ok. thanks

that Desktop Para looks strikingly similar to the previous Schleich Para, doesnt it?

[Roselaar]

Very beautiful Parasaur! The Sega Rex is cool too, but I prefer the black version. Is this red variant translucent too?

[Hynerpeton]

I got my answer. Being shipped tomorrow.

Yes. I should have bought that Schleich Para, when I had the chance.  Waited for a sale for nothing. Now it's retired.

Thanks Roselaar!  Me too, I prefer the Black version.  This red Tyranno is the original color and it is not translucent.

Not dinosaur, but primate.


What is this?









Please identify, and if not, please re-direct me to someone who might know.

[CityRaptor]

Looks like a Mouse Lemur.

[Gwangi]

Carnegie Carnotaurus (the right one this time).


Anyone who reads the reviews will know I recently got the CollectA Carcharodontosaurus.


Papo Tyrannosaurus. Looks like he has a milk mustache.


Schleich Glyptodon.


Just today, picked up a copy of the Scientific American dinosaur issue.

Not the best pics but still, EPIC Haul !

[sauroid]

epic hauls indeed, Blade and Gwangi

[dutchdinolover]

Wauw!
Good to see youre faunacast has arrived as well.

Impressive haul

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

I'm impressed myself.  I honestly didn't know the Spino was so large..must have missed something somewhere..lol The other bonus is just how well these are sculpted, Malcolm certainly gave them his all in these newer pieces..or he has jsut improved so much it's crazy..either way they are AWESOME !

[Simon]

Man, Santa came early this year!  Love to see the different paint ups.  Looking at my versions while I type.  I'll never get tired of looking at Malcolm's sculpts!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Same here..and the fact they were actually sculpted by hand ( you can see the odd fingerprint on the base) is just awesome! Makes me wish it was possible I sculpted each our dinosaurs here the same way...so much detail in these as well and Malcolm's paintjobs make these guys 100% FAUNA CASTS originals.   I'll get better pics later and post them in Malcolm's area.

[Patrx]

These look excellent; congratulations! I really like the stripey patterns he used on the Spinosaurus, Ceratosaurus, and Tyrannosaurus. Here's hoping my Fauna Casts figures arrive soon!

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Thanks! I'm sure they will ! Malcolm is getting stuff out as fast as he can .

[morrijos]

I scored a nice little lot of vintage Carnegie pieces on Ebay.  There are two of the old school "gold-washed" figures.  Way cool!

Excuse the picture quality; all of these were taken on my iPhone. 

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Nice! Those older ones are getting more difficult to find !
