CityRaptor

My latest haul:
Sega Vignetteum T. rex ( got it for cheap  the packaging got damaged )
Jurassic World on DVD ( came with a store exclusive Poster in A1 size )
Gamera Set ( first issue of Dark Horse Comic, Konami SF Collection Gyaos, Bandai Keshi Gyaos and as a bonus a Futabain Zyudenchi )


The poster:
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

that Gyaos figure looks so cool
"you know you have a lot of prehistoric figures if you have at least twenty items per page of the prehistoric/dinosaur section on ebay." - anon.

CityRaptor

Thank you.
I might not collect Kaiju in big style anymore, limiting myself mainly to Sakai Diormas, but I still collect small Kaiju figures I consider nice.

the horde of Gyaos! (the SFX is not as good as PacRim/Legendary Pictures Godzilla)

Yep. Gyaos swarms seem to be a thing ever since the Heisei Era.

QuoteWhy, because they all have the same colouration? I kinda like such consistency. And I don't think these colours are so offputting. But they would make for great custom material. I look forward to see what people can do with them here.

Also, the two smaller Spinosaurs are bigger than most standardly sized Collectasaurs. I was also pleasantly surprised by that.


Well, I don't like the colors, the green and the yellow are too pale and there isn't contrast between them. I prefer more naturalistic paint works.

Did you get the Deluxe Spino from Urzeitshop? I ordered mine from Dan and I'm still waiting...
As far as I know,the new SpinosauruS aren't in stock in that site.And seems you'll have to wait for a little long too.The newest I have read of says the Feathered Tyrannosaurus and the Spinos will be arriving the USA on November 31st,although they will be released in December.

Raptoress

I recently got some Good Dinosaur toys, the figurine gift set from the Disney store in Cardiff and the Bubbha Velociraptor action figure. TOMY wise I got the Young Arlo and Sam figures. Also went to TK Maxx and found the BIG grey Schleich Apatosaurus for only £7!

Dinomike

Love that poster Cityraptor!

Everyone looking for the new Spinosauruses by CollectA: the only place that is currently selling these is Minizoo in Australia. Don't know why nobody else has these...
Check out my new Spinosaurus figure: http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=5099.0

CityRaptor

Thanks. Sadly the posted came folded. So it does not look as nice as the pic shown, but still very nice.

Oh, that is a nice price for the big grey Apato. I also think that is the best part of your haul.

So jealous. I started in the hobby after the FaunaCasts era, there are a few I wish I'd had the chance to pick up.
