My congratulations U K

By the way, the dioramasaurus figures, what material are they made of? `They seem to be made of PVC. They are very good.


UK

Thank you Shonisaurus, the bases are a hard plastic and the figures are of a soft rubbery plastic similar to Playvisions (if that makes any sense). For their price they are gems and the booklets are a great addition too.

Shonisaurus

Wow those figures are fabulous then they seemed to me of resin sincerely they give deceive.

I hadn't come across the Dioramasaurus set before.  What a neat idea how the bases interlock!

My purchases are few and far between these days but I always seem to be blessed with interesting and gorgeous acquisitions. First up, a delight from Starlux courtesy of Joe DeMarco





Second up is a delight from China sent and gratefully received from Acro-Man (thank you Jerry). Seven little Dinosaurs of China, wonderful and so much more substantial than I expected.





And finally a wonderful tome bought for my birthday by my lovely daughter. Splendid artwork indeed.



Conundrum now is what to remove from the shelves to display the PNSO figures.




Shonisaurus

I am glad U K that you have finally obtained the mini dinosaurs of China from PNSO. They are very nice figures, apart from that they come with a book with their stamps.

On the other hand I congratulate you for your book and for the new acquisition of the disappeared and mythical company of prehistoric animal figures Starlux.  :)

Wonderful set of PNSO mini-figures! Have they run out already? I ought to have jumped on those sooner...

That Drepanaspis will make a good pair with your Cephalaspis, I think.

Not posted any pics for a while... Just some minor adjustments...

Still looking great. Also great use for the doorframe.
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

Shonisaurus

The door frame looks very decorative, the ivory color of the figures of prehistoric dinosaurs make a beautiful decorative set.

After what seemed forever.... Three on display with two awaiting their turns.




Shonisaurus

What an exceptional trio of raptors. The company Beasts of the Mesozoic is gaining a deserved fame among forum members.

A very rare update from me. Mostly due to needing to clean and freshen up the figures, a quick,change around with the display. Included is a first addition for a while, the powder blue dunklesteous. Seem to have run out of steam collecting wise, though still searching for a Cherilea Igunaodon should any one have one?










CityRaptor

Always a small but fine display to look at. The one with the aquatic animals comes off as a bit of a diorama scene.

avatar_UK @UK The dunkleosteus to which prehistoric animal company belongs? It looks magnificent.

Halichoeres

Huh, to me that doesn't look like a Dunkleosteus at all, it looks like a Coccosteus. Cool piece.

I saw it on a Yahoo Japan auction.
It's a one-of-a-kind hand made resin piece.
But I don't remember the species..  :-\

I'm sorry it's a piece of resin. If it were made of PVC, vinyl or other more resistant material, I would buy it. In any case, the resin figures are nicer and finished normally. I have the favorite essential resin figures such as styracosaurus, stegosaurus or pachycephalosaurus and I can affirm that they surpass all expectations to a prehistoric animal figure and in that case toy dinosaur.
