New Fauna Casts models from Malcolm! It's been a pretty severe wait, but they are quite excellent.



Daeodon




Ceratosaurus




Suchomimus

Blade-of-the-Moon

The Ceratosaurus and the Suchomimus are certainly some of my favorite ones Malcolm has produced. I encourage anyone to to order them while they are available. :)

Definitely! Easily the best available figures of those genera within their price range. Accurate designs, no shrink-wrapping, interesting poses. Interestingly, though, I think my favorite of the three is the Daeodon; which has seems to have some unique charm to it.

I think it's a very nicely done figure..but mammals and me..well I like few of them to say the least. heh

I got a Marx marbled pot belly trex today.

Roselaar

Bought a WWD3D medium size Patchi figure, the non-electronic one. I would have preferred a Scowler, as I didn't have any version of that one yet, but I take what I can get. Unfortunatelky the store also didn't have any of the new glow-in-the-dark blind bags.

;D What a fatty ... but beautiful in a way :).
The only Marx figures I'd be interested in though, are the huge Stego and Bronto.
But everytime I saw one of these on eBay they got much too expensive.

Have you checked Amazon? In Germany they use to have all the figures in stock.

This figure has been loved and hated on the pages of this forum.
Mine's actually not too shiny or poorly painted imho. Turning yer tail like this will prolly hurt though...
The fearsome paws belong to my Canis lupus familiaris.


Actually,I don't find any strong reasons to hate that Dilophosaurus.My only complaints about it are just the hand tripod and improvable paintjob,but is this figure seriously hate-able?
I guess,there's always Bullyland's Dilophosaurus...haha  ::)

My neither! I quite love this one. When placed together with my Carnegie Dilo they give two very different but very appealing views on the same species.

Neither the Schleich not the Collecta versions are, nor ever will be, part of my collection.

I'm still pondering on this one though... Bit other pricerange but very nice...

Nice. Every time I see that someone has their figures, it reminds that I've been waiting a while for bunch--although, to be fair, I have one of the first Daeodon!

I got a rubber shark from the new dollar store a while back
I may not like feathered dinosaurs and stumpy legged Spinosaurs, but I will keep those opinions to myself, I will not start a debate over it, I promise. 😇

Maybe, can you name the JP rex I just acquired? TIA!

Yes, yes I can.

What is it?

You got a pic of the Rex?

It's on page 222, 5th photo on my post of recent acquisitions.
