[Blade-of-the-Moon]

My latest garage sale haul from Sunday! Fell in love immediately. It reminds me at WWD Diplodocus, but it is a Rebacchisaurus. Any idea about the company?!

[Seijun]

just got these:
Battat knock-offs

mini chinasaurs 

These are figures from Carnegie's "Authentics Habitat Collection", set #2. All the figures in this set are surprisingly accurate, even those with no battat counterparts, so it could just be a case of the sculptor having done their homework.

[sauroid]

cool. thanks for the info Seijun. are they common dino figures these days?

[Paleona]

@Libra Nice find!  Looks like it's a great size.  I did a quick search, and it looks like it's made by Animal Planet: http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4400765  How's the foam?  Is it super squishy?

[meoraptor]

I got the CollectAs about two weeks ago from the Dinosaur Farm and got the Stegosaurus over the weekend at Michael's.

Many thanks for that information! The animal is nearly as big as Bullyland´s softplay Apatosauruss, but not as squishy. It´s harder, and the surface is rougher. Like the softplay animals, it looks as if it was solid rubber. I like it very much!

[Meso-Cenozoic]

Ah yes, I remember that Rebacchisaurus. He came out just a couple or so years ago I think. I like him better here than in the catalog pic. And, he's MUCH BIGGER than I had thought! Hmm, so he can be found at Toys R Us. Maybe I'll have to stop by our big store in Times Square and check him out. Been wanting to get in there again anyway. If I'm remembering correctly, they have a full-size T.rex, and I think he's animated! 

Thanks for the pic, Libra! You might have just convinced me to get one now! 

[Gwangi]

Got these two from forum member Takama.

Jasmen Gallamimus


Papo Spinosaurus


A friend picked up this little Godzilla for me at a yard sale. I had no where else to put him!

[Takama]

I hope Spiny is standing alright for you.

I hope Spiny is standing alright for you.

He sure is. No problem at all.

Definitely one of the best Figure to have come out this year, and CollectA's finest to date!

Exquisite details and paint job on the head.


One thing I really noticed with this years CollectA figures is the impressive paint job. The paint is clean and crisp.

[tyrantqueen]

I'm a little late to the party, but oh well.

Congrats paleoferroequine and nice to see some real photos of them! I've been planning to get them, too, eventually.

[Libraraptor]

Boki, is tht a custom painted AAA Gallimimus besides the Deinocheirus and Battat Sturhiomimus? It´s really cool!

[brontodocus]

I believe it's one of boki's own trademark repaints but I think I haven't seen this one before.

I've been a little reluctant, lately. But the green one here with the reddish back was a must for me, too:

For those who are interested: The cetacean figures are the new Bullyland Fin Whale and the new Maia & Borges Common Dolphin, Blue Whale, and Right Whale. Especially the latter is highly recommended!
