Just got these beauties from DeJankins...... $81 before postage. Best prices around so get there fast before they sell out.

I have seen the deinotherium selling for £80 alone recently.

Interesting, I've tried contacting DeJankins regarding the Gomph, but they haven't responded to my email.  I'm not sure what's up :-\

Okay, just received an email from DeJankins---it seems that the message was unintentionally relayed to the spam folder.

Chinasaurs were at a consignment shop, the Dino Riders were both at a tag sale and the other dinosaur bag was at a thrift store

CollectAs Best Theropod Ever


And it came with dino feed.

I received the awesome and rare Jurassic Park Gallimimus and The Lost World: JP 3-D wall art for my Birthday 2 weeks ago!  :)

Metallisuchus

Man I remember getting that Gallimimus for Christmas when it came out, classic toy there. I always loved the sound it made - like a nervous chicken crossed with a horse!

I don't collect a lot of JP but I've always wanted that Gallimimus.

The JP Series 2 releases were great. I always loved the Utahraptor & Carnotaurus especially. It's harder for me now to like them as much because I consider them toys as opposed to replicas. There's a fine line there.

Can I post non dinosaur acquisitions


tanystropheus

Recent 2012 acquisitions (I have a Schleich retailer across the street, so it's quite tempting, lol)














amargasaurus cazaui

I am unsure if I am allowed to post this little guy as he is not a toy, but then neither are some of the statues and models I am seeing.He is my newest dinosaur however and I wanted to welcome him home so here he is.
Named him after Nim from the series Surface.

Do you mean is it a real dinosaur skeleton? Yes of course, its a Psittacosaurus. I put another thread up regarding the little guy, but since he is a new acquisition I thought it might be alright to put him here. I hope I dint offend you.

Yes Sir. Quite so, it is a fossil Psittacosaurus, and I purchased and had him mounted . It isnt a perfect dinosaur, but he is still awesome to look at and study and compare.

CollectAs Best Theropod Ever


And it came with dino feed.

Wow, you got one of the better Neovenator's! His legs are nice and straight, and his feet are planted firmly on the ground allowing him to stand on his own. My first one was so bad, I had to send him back. (I hardly, if ever, send back dinos!) His poor legs down to his feet were so badly bowed inward, he couldn't even stand with the plastic insert base that comes with him! My second one isn't much better. But at least he stands with the plastic. Nice to know there are some out there that don't have defective legs. I just thought maybe CollectA was having this issue because this year's theropods are, I think, their first ones with skinnier legs.

I'm jealous, hehe! He looks great!

If they're extant animals, I think it should be okay. I totally forgot - there is a section on here for non-dinosaur collectibles, though I don't believe there's a 'recent acquisitions' section for extant animals, which is why I post 'em here.
