Well, here is my newest haul:

Thank you for this picture,  without you I would not have found these articles. I bought both magazines dir myself Today.

I just got this massive beast, the playskool ultrasaurus, from the mail.
Was wondering wether i should pull the trigger or not but i did and i do not regret it!

[Shonisaurus]

That ultrasaurus must cost a lot of money is immense. Leave the giganotosaurus of Safari small.

[Roselaar]

Lovely Ultrasaurus! I cannot imagine that was a cheap purchase, but it looks totally worth it.

[DragonRider02]

Got some new dinos

Got it for about $49, without shipping. Price was okay in my opinion as i have seen it go for more. Just that it does not pop up in ebay too often.

@Shonisaurus, yes makes even the giga of safari look small haha

Umm im not sure how to put a picure here so ill just say that i bid on a lot on Ebay that contained a brown papo raptor. Needless to say i won since it seems no one else saw it was there. Not sure if 25 dollars for it was a good price but beats the 100+ dollar ones

Ooh, very nice! I'm never lucky with auctions, even ones with obscure figures :c

I got this wonderful girl today:


There's lots more pictures of it posted in the Mattel JW thread, in case anyone is curious.

Building my Raptor pack. It's interesting to see the quality control difference between the different lines.

Getting quite envious seeing all these postings of the JW merch that people are adding to their collections - come on Australian retailers; get your act together!!

This store seems to be based in Australia, maybe give it a try? Oddly enough though, they've got their Fallen Kingdom stuff labelled as "randomly assorted"

Thanks for the link, prices seem a bit higher than I've seen elsewhere and not much of a selection. I was thinking more a walk in and pick off the shelf type situation. Been a week or so since I last did the rounds of the stores in the mall near us so maybe I'll get lucky on a return visit this weekend. In my experience locally you have to be there on the right day as they do not get in much stock and are a bit slack in re-stocking, so it's a matter of grab it when you see it or it may be gone the next day.

[Kaprosaurus]

Got some JWFK stuff in TRU today. Got a Gallimimus and a Dimorphodon. Dunno how to post pictures though

[Lanthanotus]

Now, this puts "clow feet" to a new level. Thanks for sharing, .. while not my cup of tea I always enjoy to have a look onto new figures.

[Jose S.M.]

The huge feet I read they have something to do with that jumping action, but they are way too big. Battle damage Blue has better looking feet.

[CityRaptor]

Also those JW:FK toys. Still not out in Germany, it seems. Sigh...

Sweet loot! That book looks beautiful. Congrats!

Thanks.

The carnotaurus looks terrifying like the one in the Disney movie. That Papo Knockoff, with that painting looks pretty.

It looks far better.

Regarding the theme of tyrannosaurus rex the star figure of the dinosaurs both toy and collection (resin) I wonder how many versions of that figure have been made in the form of a toy or figure throughout history. I think it would be impossible to calculate how many rex tyrannosaurs have occurred.

Tyrannosaurus is the most famous figure among all prehistoric animals by far.

Likely. Of course all the T.rex figures would probably look insignificant compared to the figures some modern animals recieve. Especially humans and horses.

From what I've seen in a Jurassic World video "The Fallen Kingdom" in that movie is included among other dinosaurs the stygimoloch. I am not a follower of the figures of J P toy, so I do not know if it is included in this year's dinosaurs in toy version articulated by this franchise.

Stygimoloch is getting several figures by Mattel in the normal lines, some exclusives, Imaginext, plush toys, Lego, a Funko etc. Seems like one of them might play a bigger role.

You are welcome.

Well, here is my newest haul.

Was looking for some JWFK toys, when I found a Schleich Dinosaurs Blindbag. It was sold for 5 Euros instead of 10 and contains 2 figures. Since I wanted the Carnotaurus and the Rainbow Rex is also not a too shabby figure, especially compared to the bigger ones, I dared to buy it. As you can see, I got the Giganotosaurus and Raptor instead. Ironically the two figures sold in 2-packs with those I wanted. The Giga kinda reminds me of the Dino Crisis 2 one, and the Raptor look like some B-Movie monster, giving it a certain narmy charme. Not sure if I will ultimately keep them, but they are mine, for now at least.  Furthermore the fact that it would have been possible to get some figures retired in 2014 makes me wonder just how much stock of them Schleich has left.
Also got a magnet with a motive clearly ripped of from a TLW:JP poster. Has a nice 3D effect.

Speaking of giganotosaurus i just got my shane foulkes resin kit today! Also im.surprised someone else here knows about dino crisis 2. I repainted my safari giganotosaurus to the dino crisis 2 one

Would really love to see photos of them! :-)

This is the latest haul I received yesterday.





These beasts are huge! I expected them to be smaller! The Hyaenodon has surprised me gladly, in fact I bought them because of the Entelodon!

I am excited to see what the postman brings me this week and the following...
