Depending on how your collection develops, it will be a Beast Wars for territory.
Jurassic Park is frightning in the dark
All the dinosaurs are running wild
Someone let T. Rex out of his pen
I'm afraid those things'll harm me
'Cause they sure don't act like Barney
And they think that I'm their dinner, not their friend
Oh no

Very nice Spino model! Is the fish supposed to represent any particular species?

DinoToyBlog said that it is a gar (  http://dinotoyblog.com/2011/06/19/spinosaurus-hunting-desktop-model-by-dinostoreus/  ).

The water effect is a bit distracting, but otherwise a fine model. Congratulations. :D

Given that it is a Cretaceous gar from Africa, there are only a couple of possibilities. The first one coming to mind is Atractosteus africanus, but I dont' believe the snout looks right for Atractosteus. Another Cretaceous African gar species is Oniichthys falipoui. Given the shape of the snout and relative size, it could be that. Either one really.

Science has moved on since this model, but it is awesome!

Thanks for the answer. Since the exact species of fish is in dispute, this doesn't apply as a suitable entry for the Unique Species Thread.

Second wave of CollectA figures have arrived from down under :D
I have to say that I was really looking forward and excited about the prehistoric mammals and I was not disappointed when I finally got the figures! They are beautiful pieces, very much what I have hoped for, in fact these are the best prehistoric mammals from CollectA IMHO.
Joining the mammals is the ichthyosaur Temnodontosaurus giving birth, another exciting figure.
I posted a lot of photos with some comments, in the CollectA new for 2015 thread for those of you who would like to see them closer and at different angles. I decided to skip the Acro this time, he was really not on my priority list, and will just wait for his when he is available in the US.
I got all of th figures from MiniZoo, and the prices is pretty much the same as US. Quick shipping, too.

Indeed, Robin I can not wait. Bokisaurus is a very lucky person I too wish that I arrived as soon as possible these figures.

The moropus looks magnificent Chalicotherium far exceeds the mark of Bullyland. Moreover fabulous Smilodon from the point of view of paleoartística recreation.

  Although for me the most anticipated is the guidraco and Spinosaurus (three versions new version).

Thanks for the zoom. It is clearly a fish (gar) in this picture. I've also noticed that the water is actually blue here (as opposed to pineapple flavored hair gel)  ???
