Doc Ronnie's Dino Book Collection and TV Exposure

[docronnie]

Whoah is the video on youtube? I'd be interested to see that.

Yes it is, but it's the one my wife took from her cellphone. I don't know if AHA have already posted the segment.

I love the shots with you and your collection, unfortunately the video is blocked to Canada for copyright reasons.

Thanks a lot pylraster! :-)

It seems you're the only one, who's shown appreciation around here.  Well this is a start indeed.

BTW,  AHA have not returned my books yet.  Oh well. ....:-)

Think you can talk some local stores into carrying Safari, Collecta, Papo or other brands Docronnie? I think they're missing out on a lot if they think Schleich is the best.

I dont see the link posted. Was it in your original post?

EDIT : Ok i'm a dunce, I just saw it. I noticed that you had a good laugh at the host guy messing up the dino names (Stego ROAR us?). Real cool tv spot there. Too much plugging of JW though, I wish they had shown more of your collection rather than a movie clip show.

There's no harm in trying. l like to see Collecta again in our toy stores. :-)

Excellent observation, Hunterkiller! They asked me many personal questions related to my collection, which were not included in the segment.

They concentrated on the movie and the theme park. My book was also featured as a prop, which until now, they have not returned.

But still, it's better than nothing and it's a start. :-)

Here's the WWD book that I bought a few years back:

Walking with Dinosaurs A Natural History - Tim Haines - 1999

My latest:

Mammoths & Mastodons of the Ice Age - Adrian Lister - 2014

There's still another dino book, I forgot to include.  Next time, maybe.
