I'd be nervous even turning around in this bathroom for fear of knocking into some of these treasures!

Tim, I do have to be careful and also make sure the cats keep out. Sadly we lost our inquisitive one last Saturday night. Very traumatic and such a loss.

So sorry to read of your loss.

I'm so sorry to hear that! It's always such a blow to lose a pet.
In the kingdom of the blind, better take public transit. Well, in the kingdom of the sighted, too, really--almost everyone is a terrible driver.

Thank you Tim. I know we all think and say it, but she was the best.

Two additions which have just arrived. Being obtuse by not saying what they are but they are great.

You'll need to see the prior page to know for sure. Oh the excitement I hear you sigh....

 Bullyland Mastodonsaurus and Australian Age of Dinosaurs Australovenator?
It's amazing that the Mastodonsaurus has become even more looked after and expensive than it was before the re-release.

:)  Always a pleasure to have a look at your "restricted area".
I guess your wife would go rather crazy if she'd enter my flat ;D . There's no escaping from the creatures.

Hey Helge, hope all is well in Germany. Judging by the snippets we get in the Beautiful Dinosaur Mix, you must have a flat like a Tardis to fit it all in. It would be great to have a virtual tour of the Alladins cave one day.

The mastodonsaurus is a great figure. My last one flew to Hungary and I've watched the prices rise since. It was great to do a trade with a fellow forum member. It would be great if bullyland could rerealse their prehistoric line in a significantly reduced size Toob similar to safari et al. Sadly we won't see that.

My wife has given up on that bathroom, fortunately she stays in the main bathroom now. Hence the creeping numbers of items on display. Now I just need to create space for my Favorite oldies....

Got two wonderful deliveries today. One from France and one from the UK both via Germany. Firstly courtesy of the great help from P @PlesiosaurusNessy without whom the Safari missing links Neanderthal child would never have reached me. Thank you Kirsty.

And secondly something I've never seen before, a brochure issued by Invicta Plastics for their Painted line. I've been sent a printed copy of the original brochure from a friend in Hamburg.

Congratulations on the booklet! A real find!

avatar_UK @UK : The Invicta booklet is fantastic and the safari caveman a giant against the other cavemen!
How wonderful, that he did his journey safe from France to England, super, to see him now in your collection!

The Invicta Plastics Painted line brochure is way too cool ...Congrats ...

Wonderful acquisitions.  I've derived much enjoyment from perusing your delightfully posed and oft-circulated items.  I'm fairly sure I speak for many of us in wishing you both an enhanced budget and an expanded shower room so that we can see more (of your prehistoric animals, I mean, of course).  Thanks again.

Thank you so much V @Varanops. It is always a pleasure sharing my bathroom with you all. It's a shame my photography skills are non existent but I have been lucky to have owned so many beautiful figures.

Wow, all that trouble you took to get the Ornithocheirus just for it to end up as a snack for the big Rex 😉!

Ah yes, UK's periodic bathroom update/envy trap :)

  ;D  Carnegie Concavenator wants a bite of that expensive meat, too.

He just needs to jump a bit higher!   :)

I think current pose is highly degrading for the poor WWD Ornithocheirus.
He clearly deserve better - Exhibited like that must cause it to feel under appreciated.
I would really have you to reconsider ...  ;)
and if you allready  grown tired of your Ornithocheirus, then  ...
