Since we've had posts of your plesiosaur, pliosaur, and now mosasaur collection, are we going to see a 'Icky icky icthyosaurs' post eventually?  :D

Unless someone beats me to it, yes! I've been waiting until I acquire one or two more.

If it was explained before, I've forgotten! What is this?  O:-)

Ah, that one is a resin model by the Japanese artist Sculptor Shinzin. I'm almost sure its a rough since its really very un-polished ^-^ It does has his signature :)
I got him like originally looking like this:

The paint job was so bad so I decided to repaint it ^-^ it a nice model.

And how could I forgotten this mosasaur!

Oh, and there is this little one also, not sure who made it


and I think this little grey one is supposed to be a mosasaur also ;D

Second is Bullyland Liopleurodon, the third is the Recur Mosasaurus.
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

AcroSauroTaurus

Got these two today, only one is a mosasaur though.

Tylosaur collection:



Now I feel as if I should get an amber Mosasaurus as well. They look aesthetically pleasing together, and if the the chins were more level, they would form a heart  :)


Bokisaurus

Wow, some of these threads need some serious updating! :))
PNSO Mosasaurus

Halichoeres

Boki, do you have the little PNSO Ectenosaurus? I feel like that one especially belongs here because it's so rare to get mosasaurs that aren't Mosasaurus or Tylosaurus.

Shonisaurus

I congratulate you is one of my goals in terms of collectible figures. It is a pretty cool mosasaurus with pretty colors.

very nice! I have always found marine reptiles to be some of the most underepresented next to pterosaurs in the market but it seems i am entirely wrong.

There are like 6 or 8 genera of prehistoric marine reptiles that have plenty of decent figures, but literally hundreds of others that have never been made well.

Indeed. There are plenty of fantastic mosasaurs and pliosaurs, yet Tylosaurus, Mosasaurus, Kronosaurus, and Liopleurodon have enjoyed the T. rex's share, so to speak, of the toys. Personally, I'd love to see Prognathodon or Megacephalosaurus get some love.

Same goes for elasmosaurs and ichthyosaurs. And nothosaurs have nearly nothing.
