Recent Acquisitions (Archive, March 2012 - July 2018)

[Silvanusaurus]

I hope to god that Tyrannosaurus rex actually looked exactly like this in life.

[Jose S.M.]

I just got the 2017 W.S Tyrannosaurus and Psittacosaurus and they are gorgeus figures, both look even better in hand, my T-rex stands well on it's own for now, but it's the Psittaco who came with a little warped foot but it's fixed now.

'grats Joe289, they look cool and hope to get my own soon.

[PumperKrickel]

It finally arrived! I´m so happy with the figure and my Raptor finally has a place, where he kinda fits in scale-wise.

Congrats all for the new acquisitions

[Silvanusaurus]

PNSO Tyrannosaurus with new colours confirmed!



He has a subtle scheme of pastel red, orange and brown and his fiery eyes belie only cold-hearted malice.



He has never known love.



He was an outcast from his own kind, now only hate keeps him going. 

Also, this absolute hunk:

[sauroid]

so glad that PNSO repainted the V1 rex. congrats on the cool haul Silvanusaurus.

[RobinGoodfellow]

..I don't understand why PNSO decided not to emphasize the feathers on the head and on shoulders with a different color... (because "Big" Rex has minor feathers)

Silvanusaurus may I ask where you bought these from? I've been struggling to acquire any of the new PNSO models and was wondering if you've had any of the same problems.

Thanks,

...probably on Amazon UK ( when PNSO WAS on Amazon UK..    )....

Unfortunately PNSO disappeared from Amazon UK weeks ago.
Now the only ways are:

- Taobao ( through a Taobao agent )
- MonsterHouse HK ( through Ebay )
- by DTF member Acro-Man ( http://dinotoyblog.com/forum/index.php?topic=5447.msg163336#msg163336 )
- Dan's Dinosaur or DeJankins ( USA )

I tried Taobao and got an email response that they were out of stock, so there goes that option Maybe I'll contact Acro-man, the ebay prices are a bit high for me.

Isn´t Acro-man effectively a Taobao agent? So if they´re out, he´s out too, right?

..but "out of stock" doesn't mean "out of stock forever".
Probably in the meantime they are re-stocking... just waiting..

Hopefully that's the case...

I was lucky in that I ordered the figures from Amazon UK in a brief spell when PNSO re-appeared on there, about 2 weeks ago, before swiftly dissapearing once more.

Robin Goodfellow, I agree about the feathers, as it is they are barely visible, like they are just a weird skin growth. I might give them a paint highlight myself, but then I'm not sure if I like the way they look anyway, so maybe it's better they are hidden.

Feathers could look like that:



( Photoshop test only )

[BlueKrono]

Ha, I never noticed those before just now.

[sauroid]

let's pretend big rex is molting or losing its feathers due to old age.

[Sigmasaurus]

The 2 most recent figures I have gotten are:


The Safari LTD new Diplo

And the Giga

[Silvanusaurus]

I won a very ecclectic lot of (mostly) vintage figures on eBay.
The stars of the group are these lovely starlux, a line I hadn't been that interested in before, but having them in hand I think I'm in love with these figures, gonna have to collect more of them:



The rest of the lot is an interesting selection of Inpros, Schleich Ursaurier (I think?), a Favourite series 1 Allosaurus, some diecast JP figures (which I dont want to keep), and a couple of odd little things.



All of this for £22, which seems like a steal to me, especially with those beautiful Starlux.

If anybody wants the duplicate Inpros and JP diecast figures, let me know.
