They're not that expensive in context. Try collecting Sideshow statues at $200+ a pop. Not cheap

[ignite444]

College refund money, ha ha, that's how I afford these. XD

and there are kids who have parents who let them have anything they want

Not necessarily a bad thing (as long as there is an element of reasonableness maintained). It makes me cry a little inside to see the JP3 Animatronic Spinosaurus I so desperately wanted as a kid go for $80 or more on eBay when I remember it only being something like $25 at Walmart back in the day...

[tanystropheus]

I used to sell my textbooks from school to buy video games and toys

What I got recently as Xmas gifts:


This one is now in the identification thread


Finally, I found out that this was issued in 2006 as indicated on the box, but the figures have no dates though.

Merry Christmas everyone! 

[JohannesB]

Latest addition to my collection. I like him.

[sauroid]

that rex really is cool looking

[Raptoress]

On Christmas day, I received a lovely surprise from my mum. She had ordered me the Battat Terra collection for Christmas. Signed by Dan LoRusso himself! I don't think I've ever been so excited in my life. It's truly made my Christmas. Thank you so much, Dan for signing them! These of course are staying in their boxes!

[DinoLord]

What a great gift!

[triceratops83]

Can't get much cooler than that.

[SpartanSquat]

Look what Santa give me!

[EmperorDinobot]

Beautiful statue.


Here's my Dinos for xmas.







But... what on Earth could this be?



Probably not entirely dinosaurian.

[triceratops83]

Is that a Hypacrosaurus skeleton? What brand is it?

[Ikessauro]

Is that a Hypacrosaurus skeleton? What brand is it?

I too wanna know!

[DinoLord]

That Hypacrosaurus skeleton is pretty neat!


Received a Papo Brachiosaurus as a Christmas gift. It's a nice, hefty figure.

[Blade-of-the-Moon]

Is that a Hypacrosaurus skeleton? What brand is it?

I think it's from the Tiny Perfect Dino series, included an egg, skeleton, booklet/poster and a neat display box in the 90's.

Nice score guys!

[ignite444]

Nice haul guys! Me? I never get physical gifts for Christmas anymore, so no dinos for me. I did get an Amazon gift card which I will definitely use to get me some new models, but sheesh.

@Blade: I think that's it! I have a similar-looking Brachiosaurus skeleton from the same line.
