Uk - fascination with the Land of the Rising Sun

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations on your new acquisition. Nice shape.

[Halichoeres]

That one is well-traveled if you got it from the States! One of jetoar's best.

[RobinGoodfellow]

The Paleo-Creatures Saurosuchus galilei was originally a commission I asked to Jesus Toledo years ago.
I simply wasn't able to find a Saurosuchus figure from the Dawn of the Dinosaurs Japan Expo.
So I asked to Jetoar to create one for me.
He was kind enough to do that  just with one recommendation : not too similar to the original Expo model..
My prototype has a different posture ( https://www.flickr.com/photos/130140542@N03/29227880553/in/photolist-2i6QqaK-2io5V2Z-LwLwB4-2i6Jue3-2i6HshJ-2i6Hsjx-2i6EWXx-2i6EWXC-2i6Hsh3-2i6EWZX-2i6EWXn-2i6RSHP ) to match the Expo figure (  https://www.flickr.com/photos/130140542@N03/49291428106/in/photolist-2i6QqaK-2io5V2Z-LwLwB4-2i6Jue3-2i6HshJ-2i6Hsjx-2i6EWXx-2i6EWXC-2i6Hsh3-2i6EWZX-2i6EWXn-2i6RSHP ).
Then he added the figure to his regular Paleo-Creatures line with a  slightly  different pose (he did me a favor but he didn't want to look like a cloner..).
It's still a great figure.

Jetoar did the same also with Xenacanthus and Koolasuchus.

And it's a pity he closed his Paleo-Creatures line..

Finally upgraded my phone.  Took some images of my shelves to see the difference.

[Duna]

Wow, your collection really shines with the new phone. My favourite is the wooden shelves with the Inpros, Timpos and others.

And that ramphorrhynchus (or what it may be), looks cool!

[Shonisaurus]

Without a doubt, your rhamphorhynchus is the star figure of your collection. It is the most beautiful figure of that pterosaur that I have seen in a collectible figure.

[Halichoeres]

Given how much turnover there is in your collection, it's interesting to see the ones that stick around, like all the Kaiyodo Seismosauruses. And of course that OOAK Rhamphorhynchus.

Very astute observation. I think some of it is just the thought of rotation and the time it takes puts me off. Also, I don't want to hoard figures which others are after when the freed up funds can give me opportunities to experience new collecting opportunities.

It's good to test your collecting nerve by selling rare or treasured figures. It's stops the potential for hoarding and having a fine tuned collection helps you appreciate so much more in my experience. And I have regretted some sales but I've hunted done replacements or just enjoyed the knowledge I've helped someone somewhere continue their passion.

Well I blame this on B @Bokisaurus, his amazing reviews will have me on the streets. Andrea is on the shelf next to Wilson, ,lovely figures the pair. I swear you are a secret agent for PNSO Boki (but please continue your reviews as they are up there with the best).

Got to close my aching wallet now for a while.

[Shonisaurus]

Gorgeous photos and gorgeous PNSO tyrannosaurus. You have a very nice collection and the house is very tidy. My congratulations.

[UK]

Thank you for the compliment @Shonisaurus .

As this is the bathroom with my shelves in, I am responsible for it's cleaning. My wife regularly checks for dust and will leave the duster and polish as a reminder. I keep on top of it anyhow as I regularly change the displays.

@UK  🤣 haha I'm glad you got her, impressive and really attention grabbing model! Happy to hear you like my reviews, oh if only PNSO would send me review copies!🤣🤣🤣

Yet another Timpo T-REX variant.

Many years of collecting and just the standard yellow and silver, then an acceleration in recent years.

[BrontoScorpio]

You really like your Timpos ... Obviously.
The T-rex is such an hilarious figure - while all other look 'normal'.

I have only the Bronto & Dimetrodon - which I think, are the best in this line ( without considering any 'collectible' value ).

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations on your new figure, the Timpo I see that they are truly attractive and fun figures and with a great variety of colors, it is good to buy curious and at the same time interesting figures.

[Duna]

You have a gorgeous Timpo collection, I love your new tyrannosaurus. That figure has a lot of charm.

I only have a rare dark green brontosaurus:

[Halichoeres]

Quite a little Timpo rainbow!

I've put a few figures in the back bedroom while I isolate with COVID. Still very tired and it comes in waves.

My daughter got me the Rebor Velociraptor oddity for Christmas. Looks very nice, photographs don't do it justice, will look for the T Rex to go with it. Sold out in @Everything_Dinosaur , hope they get some more.

Whilst the press are saying Omicron is so much milder, I can confirm you still don't want to catch it.
