Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

[Blackdanter]

I can't find them. Any specific search words?

Under 'Figures' then 'Animal' ............................. 

It won't matter right now--they are currently out of stock. Reasonable Colorata set prices though.

Blimey, they were in stock this morning! I'll PM the links in future. I keep forgetting that the board is public!

Nope, no Marine Reptiles for me. I also checked under Fish and Marine Life, but nothing.

not the Kaiyodo, the Favorite anomalocaris/dunkleosteus
(and they are out of stock right now anyway)

just a couple of new books and some figures


Parasaurolophus carcass

Tsintaosaurus

Invicta Iguanodon

Invicta Ichthyosaurus

[Ikessauro]

Parasaurolophus carcass

Tsintaosaurus

Where can i get these figures? I like them a lot.

[Blackdanter]

The Tsintaosaurus is a rare figure from a 2006 Bandai set called The Complete Works of Dinosaur. The figure shown is missing its base but is none the less a rare thing indeed. 

Not sure about the Parasaurolophus. It looks like it's half the model perhaps from one of the Japanese diorama series.

Go back in time about 7 years! 

Seriously, though, I managed to get the set roughly then--and only occasionally see one individual from the set here or there, even in Japanese auctions. Like most of the Dinosaur King-inspired figures, they didn't seem to get very well distributed, or stay available long. Too bad, because they are a fantastic little set.

You're right Blackdanter! I have the Allo and the Stego.

The Para looks like from Bandai, the Dinosaur Museum Collection. Here's a link but the photo is too small: http://www.dinosaurcollectorsitea.com/Japan.html

Found the link of the Dinosaur Complete Works:

yeah i dont have the base. i have everything from that series except for one. the Para is also from an earlier Bandai set (the first predation series) that comes with a feeding T.rex.
(i cant find the T. rex now. this also comes with a diorama base)

Neat acquisitions!

[CityRaptor]

Got these over the last 2 months:

Figures:

Carnegie Brachiosaurus
Schleich Torosaurus & Edmontonia ( two of their better figures )
WWD 3D Pachyrhinosaurus Set ( Patchi, Scowler, Juniper )
Safari Littlefoot Baby Apatosaurus ( has yet to learn that Pachyrhinosaurs do not play with Apatosaurs...you know, being from different times...)
Safari Brachiosaurus Skull
Safari Dinosaur Skin

I also visited a few Museums in Bavaria and went to the Senckenberg on the Route:
Museum Guides, the Scientific American Special and a guide to Location in Germany, Austria & Switzerland.


Postcards and a sticker

Just received a whole order from CollectA--they have made some huge strides--the new mosasaur totally makes up for the 'tylosaurus' of several years back.

And I'll admit I'm pleasantly surprised by the juvenile T.rex. I don't normally go for such a thing, but it works.

They'll be in the store in a little while.

Love the Schleichs,  Cityraptor.

Congrats Sbell! 😊

Congrats Sbell! 😊

Thanks.

I'm going to be honest--this new mosasaur looks like it really needs to eat the little Dolichorhynchops from a few years back. Or the Hydrotherosaurus. Either way, it is truly the king of the CollectA sea.

How does it stack up against the Rhomaleosaurus?

Far more dynamic. Nicer paint scheme. Substantially less expensive (it isn't a deluxe but it feels like one). Plus, open mouth so it can eat things like CollectA Mako Sharks. Not that I did that immediately upon holding the two together...

Given a choice--this may be the best prehistoric marine reptile toy yet. And of course, there is not a single one like it, considering it includes the tail fluke. And for pedants it also incorporates the palatine teeth.

[Roselaar]

Better even than the supreme Carnegie Tylosaurus...? That one is probably inaccurate by now, but oh my, is it beautiful.

[sauroid]

the CollectA Mosasaurus stands out among the other figures in the DTF banner... (the Papo Dilo is giving it a stiff competition tho)

If figures were both at real size to each other, the dilophosaur would likely vanish (I think--haven't seen it, but if it is in line with the sizes of the existing theropods, it would be a mouthful).
