Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

[Alexxitator]

I must confess that I've never considered to get the Schleich T-Rex, but the new gold & red exclusives pump up its collector value, so I go for the Red one if I see it online, or if someone cand lend me a hand to get it please send me a PM.

I second that. If anyone is willing to go through that trouble I would be very apreciative.
Red and gold.

-and an eBay package from Japan, with my Kaiyodo CapsuleQ Museum Marine Reptiles set

Not quite a dinosaur toy, but still one of the new gems of my dinosaur collection if you don't mind the awful pun


It's gem-grade dinosaur bone I commissioned it from http://www.differentseasonsjewelry.com/ and the man who made it and runs the site, Mark Anderson, stopped by my house today while he was in town to hand deliver it!

[amargasaurus cazaui]

I have a round ring quite similar for color and cell structure myself , the blues are a great color for a ring. I know Mark Anderson, he does solid work and really makes some gorgeous jewelry in dinosaur bone. I am impressed that he quit dealing Blackjack to go into his hobby full time and seems to be doing quite well with it. He really seems talented and I think he makes some great stones.He hangs out alot on the Facebook on the gembone lovers page, as well as the boneyard, a page dedicated to dinosaur bone selling.

He really does do amazing work. He's got some really awesome projects on the way he told me about - when I was talking to him he seemed really happy and excited to be doing jewelry making full time. He's talented enough that I know he will continue to do well.

I really have to plug him as a reputable person to get awesome jewelry from!

I got all of the Battat Terra dinosaurs today, as you can see. They are amazing in terms of accuracy. (Besides the obvious lack of feathers in the N. brevispinus.)

Image unfortunately is not working, but you should know what they look like by now.

[Raptoress]

Reduced from £20 to £10 at Toys R Us. Unfortunately they didn't have the one I wanted most, the troodon. But I've ordered Scowler and the troodon so they'll be coming here soon. ^^

Today, I found the Pentaceratops and Therizinosaurus from Schleich:





"Hello, everybody!"


"Jazz hands!"

[EmperorDinobot]

I went to TRU and mysteriously skipped the Schleich section... though to be honest mum was driving, it was 8:30 and I said I'd be in and out in 5 minutes. Shame on me, 'coz those look great. Whenever Schleich comes out with non T.rex dinosaurs, they're usually nice, like Saltasaurus, and their Stegosaurus is my favorite Stego of all time.

Today, I found the Pentaceratops and Therizinosaurus from Schleich

Very nice. I have the Pentaceratops and apart from the feet, it is quite good. I also love the Therizinosaurus. Was going to get it but the one in the shop I went to was full of paint rubs and marks from kids playing with them.

[Invicta Hunter]

Do they sell Schleich dinosaurs in UK Toys R Us shops?

[Raptoress]

Do they sell Schleich dinosaurs in UK Toys R Us shops?

Yes they do. At least in my local one they do. They also sell them in Smyth's and The Entertainer.

[Invicta Hunter]

Im going to Cardiff tomorrow so i'll take a look and see what i can find.

[brandem]

hey all this krentz tylosaurus isn't a recent acquisition, though did I only find time to make it desk appropriate this weekend, love working with aquatics.

[tyrantqueen]

Colours remind me a little of a sea snake

[brandem]

Why yes a (blue lipped in think) sea krait was the inspiration, I originally tried to do something sort of like a russo's dolphin and while it looked alright a was afraid the scars wouldn't  one off as such.

[A.Garcia]

Dinosaurs of the summer. These are my first three CollectA, and second Battat.

[Raptoress]

Im going to Cardiff tomorrow so i'll take a look and see what i can find.

I didn't know there was a Toys R Us in Cardiff. I'll have to go there sometime. I usually go to The Entertainer or Hamley's. Hamley's has both Schleich and Papo dinosaurs. Never been to Smyth's in Cardiff, though.

Got me the new Favorite SoftModels .
