Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

Thanks--I'm pretty pleased with the mini CollectA sets, and I'm going to pass everyone's enthusiasm on to CollectA. I'm also going to try to figure out what the rough retail will be. I'm expecting them in October for Fall at the store, but who knows when they'll actually show up here.

And yeah, regarding the Papo tube quality or price, Roselaar, I just mentioned the same thing on STS. It's just not worth it.

If CollectA keeps up with this style and keep the price reasonable, I think they could become even bigger. We collectors like our small versions (and yes, I will take comparison shots of them--I don't have all of the deluxe ones, or the spinosaurs yet, but I will photo what I can).

And yes, a 4th spinosaur in the new style! Even if later research shows some errors in the reconstruction (sort of like their Deinocheirus) it's still historically relevant as a reconstruction! And it looks cool!

Sauroid. I envy your Edaphosaurus.

Some of my recent acquisitions.
First, the triplets.  I don't know if it's just mine, but my Stock has a huge underbite lol.  Barrel's probably my favorite, though lazy Lock is a close second.


Second, two Schleich dragons, the Dragon Fighter and one that came with a really lame rider figure that I promptly discarded.  The bigger one has different coloration than the stock picture(it's a cherry red while the stock picture was more brown) and the red one has an articulated jaw.  Why are these so much more appealing than their dinosaurs???


And for fun, my figma of Lucina from Fire Emblem Awakening came in too!

[Meso-Cenozoic]

I spotted the Jurassic World mini figures on sale in ASDA (the UK Walmart) last week and got these three (apologies for the picture quality, taken on my mobile):

I like the profile of the Stego. The colors are boring, but the more current look of the figure is better than in the movie.

I'm glad to see collectors finding the Bullyland Edaphosaurus, and in new condition too! I'm so happy this is one little figure I was smart enough to snag before it was discontinued. It's really such a nice sculpt, much better than their Dimetrodon from the same time period they were being sold. The heads a bit big, but I really like him.

hadowknight1, that Lucina figure looks outstanding.

hadowknight1, that Lucina figure looks outstanding. 

She is!  Waited so long for her and she fits in well next to Link and Saber.  Eventually plan to put all three in a sort of Three Musketeers pose since all three possess "holy" swords.

Hi! This is what I got while we were on holiday - CollectA Bistahieversor and Mosasaurus and the Carnegie Anniversary T.tex from 1998. I went in search of the CollectA Spinosaurus but didn't manage to find it, also wanted to get the CollectA Quetzalcoatlus, didn't find it either. Actually, I have had the T.rex for a long time but I used to leave it in our other house, this time I brought it with me. I'm kind of struggling with the photography...

Those are great toys, especially the two CollectAs.

[Mitko]

They are, indeed!

[Pachyrhinosaurus]

Nice additions everyone^, especially those Bullylands, Sauroid  .
Here are my new ones:

Can't believe I got the JPS2 pachy for only fifty cents, I think my only S2 exclusive figure to-date. I have more fossils; they'll be posted in the fossil thread shortly.

Same here, his jaw looks broken.

[Kayakasaurus]

Hello, Got some real treasures this time! I was very pleased to find these 2 on my Birthday today! I couldn't have asked for a better figure in stores (however when this trike is reissued maybe that will change lol) . Anyways, the Rex is V3 and made of a very hard plastic. His tail does not touch the ground and he does stand up (just barely). The trike is way softer, much like the latest V4 Rex. This is an excellent trike, and who can pass them up for only $1 each?(at Goodwill both in the same bag for $1.99) The second pic is of course the Invicta Diplodocus, easily one of my favorite figures I've found so far. I got him a month or two ago at Vallue Village.

[Uroplatus]

Awesome finds... And a happy birthday!!!
