 Hi Robin.
It is really nice seeing your collection at last.
I haven't been  so active in the DTF lately - but, I've been waiting for your collection to show itself.
I too been thinking of the 'Billy' cabinets for my collection -
  but then resorted to something else - since they just didn't seem to be stable enough, or too 'shaky' ...
In any case - that's a formidable collection you got there - must have cost many thousands of dollars.
It reminds me to get over my laziness and make the effort to show my collection as well.

We don't always share the same taste in collecting :
I would not let so many mammals into my collection and some of your items are out of my scope of interest -
I do own some of your items, but, there are some very nice things you got there I wouldn't mind having myself as well ... :)

I made a small tribute to those, if it's OK by you  to post picture on your thread :





Kapitaenosavrvs

Holy Brontosaurus. This is a bautiful arranged and presented Collection. Looks like my Savings from my whole life. Maybe more. Congrats to your detailed Collection. I am some Kind of jealous. But thats okay.

Thanks for your "tribute": it's much appreciated.

Yes, I know, every collector is different: I'm also a (small) collector of extant animals; that's why I also love megafauna (a lot  O:-) )

About Ikea, I did some little customization to "Billy" (and I also fixed them to the wall strongly  >:D ).
But the Malsjo line (for big figures and resins) is great as it is.  8)

Part 12 (Last..): Medium & Small sized figures



These are last 9 shelves from my collection (..to be honest there are 3 more with extant animals but it doesn't matter.. we are on DTF  ;) )













..older & cheap figures..










That's all..
As I said, there are even 3 more shelves with extant animals but it's out of interest on DTF.

The Mattel JP/JW section is still under construction .

Invicta full collection, PNSO Mini full collection & Beast of the Mesozoic (Raptor) collection is on storage right now  O:-)


I hope you liked this tour around my collection.. it was hard to organize ..

Thank you very much for watching

Hey Robin

Thanks for sharing your truely extraordinary collection, presented in terrific photos (as usual), and no doubt the envy of many of us!

From what you've included we do seem to share a similar teaste in extant animals as I recognised more than a few of yours as being on my shelves as well.

The tour has been much appreciated.

ceratopsian

A stunning collection, and beautifully displayed.  Thank you.

Shonisaurus

By the way Robin the protoceratops that appears in the first photograph on your shelf today June 13, which company does it belong to? He is a magnificent figure.

I'd love to see your extant animals collection even though they're not dinosaurs. Do you ever use the ATF?

..ok, I will post some pictures... it's only a small collection..

Yes, I'm also on ATF and STS  but I'm just a silent reader there.

Very nice to see the collection display all together! One very impressive collection for sure!
Stay safe and healthy! ^-^
