Nice. How much was the raptor?

12.50 pounds. Which is about 15.70 euros or 21.50 dollars. Certainly not bad considering how sought after its little friend/snack usually is.

So $21.50 us money right? And ebay?
Walking With Monsers:
[about Lystrosaurus] Astonishingly, their vast herds make up more than half of all life on Earth. Never again will a single species do so well.

Walking With Monsters: (Hynerpeton) To avoid injury the males demonstrate their strength  in a strange  push up contest.

Oh that Kaiyodo Seismosaurus is very nice figure. I got the dark grey one.

It's Kabaya, not Kaiyodo.

very cool Roselaar. (i guess i would have to delete the WWD babies from my want list)
"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.

Thanks for the correction. I wanted to say Kabaya, but came out Kaiyodo. Better than Kinto!

Speaking of which, I'm looking for the Kinto Spinosaurus...again...I never seem to go ahead with it. Where is the cheapest I can find it at?

Yeah, they're not much to look at. I only got them with the Raptor because I was outbid on the seller's other WWD figures and they didn't cost me much. And I was still curious about them, despite knowing what they were. You could settle for the regular Safari releases of these critters, which also aren't particularly appealing.

Lovely haul, Roselaar! Congrats!  :)

Thanks EmperorDinobot!  I have not seen a grey one yet.  :)

Have you seen the special edition ;D?

  :D  Favorite Tamba sauropod repainted by copper!  (more pics later)


Invicta Hunter

That paint job looks very nice, better than the original.

CityRaptor

Well, the Tamba Sauropod does not have the most interesting paintjob, so being better is not that hard if professionally done.
This however looks beautiful!
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Ridureyu

I got the new CollectA Xenoceratops:

I love it when these companies use dinosaurs as an artistic canvas.

Not physically, maybe in photos. But I have a hunch that I'll see one in the future, since I have a Spinosaurus and a Triceratops.

Picked this up at a local used book store.



The dinosaurs aren't worth getting this book for, other books have tackled them way better and the book is dated, published in 1998. What makes the book unique is the wide coverage of other prehistoric animals which are rarely tackled. Fishes, amphibians, mammals and other synapsids, archosaurs, lepidosaurus...lots of coverage. Far from a complete encyclopedia mind you but better than most.

Looks cool. Got any pics of the inside of it? :)

I got a 1960's dimetrodon in white. And not a Dino but a 1960's clown from ka boom cereal bowl hanger. :D

What Giganotosaurus are you talking about...?

Gwangi

Are you talking about the CollectA Carcharodontosaurus on page 217?
