Wow Kayakasaurus! That was a great find! The X Plus Albertosaurus is a gem!

I don't do tags either. As for valuing the figures--the owner did just donate them away, which seems strange. Probably a 'helpful' mom or significant other.

Speaking of X-plus, my recent acquisition was an X-plus Styracosaurus.


Anyone wanna paint it?


Dyscrasia



Due to Sideshow screwing up with the shipping, I received my pre-ordered Trike exclusive statue 2~3 months later than most other people that has pre-ordered it.

What is it with American Moms and giving away their kid's stuff without asking? I've read that on several forums and have seen it in several movies/series so far...

Today they have arived my last acquisitions  ^-^.

The showdown between guys who stick out their tongue and roll their eyes!
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

I'm very jealous of you Dyscrasia  >:(

My latest ones I obtained thanks to our very own Amargasaurus cazaui! I'm happy to own these! :)

I also got my Battats from Michael. They're very lovely, so .....  ;D A CHEER FOR AMARGASAURUS CAZAUI ;D !!
I am glad everyone is getting their pieces intact and not crushed or anything. It kinda makes you understand how small the world is to look and see those figures scattered around the world and know they were here before. I am glad I could do that for you guys......enjoy please!

Dyscrasia, the trike looks fantastic. Congrats!  :)


Got this big boy in today. When I saw how bulky he was, I instantly fell in love.

X-Plus Styracosaurus. Shrink-wrapped.

Anyone wanna paint it or make it more of the dinosaur that it is supposed to be so that I can pose it next to my x-plus Albertosaurus?

Extra cash if anyone gives it the Bison treatment I gave to my Bison Styracosaurus a few months ago:


stargatedalek

Package from a few days ago!


Primeval "raptor", very pleased with it. It may not be scientifically accurate but it more than makes up for it with articulation and beautiful aesthetics.



Kaiyodo regular and albino baby red0eared sliders. Absolutely adorable, they make a lovely set with their Yujin counterpart.



Kaiyodo Yellow margined box turtle, this one could be my favorite out of the turtles, I love the detailing of the shell (it even has the hinge on the plastron!).


Kaiyodo reeve's turtle, and not a very good picture of it.



Kaiyodo Diplocaulus is one from my long time list, and I adore it.



Kaiyodo Bothriolepis, it's so cute a must have.

Got lucky with these at Value Village the other day.



Schleich Great White Shark, it's a lot better than I would have expected. Upon getting it home I realized the only other white shark I had in this size range was the Wild Safari version, I have to say I prefer the Schleich.


Schleich retro Allosaurus and Dilophosaurus, both have a sort of charm to them but I wouldn't have paid much frankly.



Safari Monterey Bay giant squid, it's a lot larger than I'd expected! I wish I'd thought to get a comparison to the Wild Safari, it absolutely dwarfs it!

That Primeval Raptor is one of the coolest dinosaur action figures I know. Despite not being accurate, I can highly recommend it to anyone. ;)

These Raptors are less good looking, but still fun:

I have yet to see these anywhere else in my country but the store I bought them at, and I've heard they're not the easiest to come by in the USA either. So even though they're not the greatest sculpts or the finest repaints, I decided I'd better get them before I might lose that opportunity.

Just in from Spain:


Diictodon sculpted and painted by the forum's own Mr. Challenger. Incredible artist and great to deal with. I'd recommend his pieces to anyone. This guy is pretty large, about 18 cm long, and is a really eye-catching centerpiece on my Permian-Triassic shelf. More photos in my collection thread...
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

My attempt to find the best toy of every species

My trade/sale/wishlist thread

Sometimes I draw pictures

Patrx

That is one adorable Diicotodon! I really like the patterns.

Also, I know I'm late to the proverbial party, but I too have always had an inexplicable fondness for the Primeval "raptor". It's just so dramatic-looking and snakelike.

Sumo

Found the Bullylland Tyrannosaurus in a bag of chinasaurs at the Red Cross shop, and as I feel I have to appease the flea market gods by buying anything halfway decent I had to bring it home...  This model is coarsely sculpted and anatomically incorrect in any number of ways, but at least it's only mediocre rather than offensively bad. I'd say it's been well loved, but considering how incredibly fragile Bully paintjobs are the poor beastie may well have come out of the shop looking almost this worn!

I need that Primeval raptor, to investigate its articulation capabilities.

Two weeks ago was my 7º anniversary with my girlfriend and yesterday arrived my presents of her.



My girlfriend is my more precious treasure forever  ^-^.

[Off Nick and Eddie's reactions to the dinosaurs] Oh yeah "Ooh, aah", that's how it always starts. But then there's running and screaming.



{about the T-Rex) When he sees us with his kid isn't he gonna be like "you"!?
