Good evening, Halichoeres:

I am interested in the following figures (all) of the Cambrian,


Cog Ltd (Tedco) Earliest life: Hallucigenia, Opabinia, Pikaia, Ottoia

What material are they made of? If they are made of PVC, I'll buy them for you.

On the other hand you tell me what is the price you offer for those figures I send you a PM.

For the next five days I will have access to items that are in storage and hence below the spoiler tag in the first post. If you have been wanting something from there please let me know right away and I'll try to dig it up for you. Thanks!

For the next week all "trade only" items are available for cash sale, but only if you are able to pay right away. I won't put anything on hold because...by then I won't need the money.

Regular rules are back in effect. I will be moving again in a couple of weeks, so if you want to order something, please do it soon, as it might be several months before it's convenient to start sending packages again.

Someone asked if I would sell the Rebor Ceratosaurus base without the dinosaur. I'm reluctant to do so, but if there's anybody who wants the dinosaur without the base, then I'll do it. Anybody want just the Ceratosaurus?

Spoiler tags aren't working, so I am modifying the first post to break the image links beyond the spoiler tags, so as not to falsely raise anyone's hopes.

I've just moved and I'm taking the contents of my closet to a toy show in New Jersey. Until then (2nd September), this thread is closed for business (except trades). I'll resume with whatever is left after the show. People I'm holding items for, don't worry, those are already set aside.

Speaking of trades, wish list updated. Somehow managed to scare up a few grails during the tumult of a very complicated move.

The toy show was an epic failure, and I imagine that over the years I've found a way to rub everyone on the forum the wrong way, so....enjoy the schadenfreude?

Anyway, thought some of you might like to see what I thought was a terrific display:











And the thread is back in business now that I'm settled in my new apartment (somewhat). Newly available, stuff from:

• Bullyland
• Chialu
• Jurassic Park
• Yowie

Photos on page 1 as always. Thanks for looking!

That is a great display, too bad it didn't work out.  Where there a lot of people there?  I've been to many toy shows in the past, and you'd be the first person I've seen selling scientific toys.  I've seen more people jumping at hot wheels than dinosaurs, which is unfortunate.

It was hard to gauge because I was facing away from the door, but I'd guess I saw roughly 100 people? I don't go to toy shows often, but I've been to the much larger one in Chicago, where I suspect I would have done better.

As for the merchandise people bought after skipping my table, the phrase "pearls before swine" crossed my mind more than once.

How much is that Carcharodontosaurus going for?

Sent you a pm!

You run a tight ship! Everything all neat and labeled, really a dinosaur collectors dream table! ;D

Hi Halichoeres, do you still have the cards in stock? I mean the ones for Dinocardz, and Dinosaurs: the Mesozoic era?

Surprised no one has asked the price for that "grail" Battat Diplodocus
Authors with varying competence have suggested dinosaurs disappeared because of meteorites...God's will, raids by little green hunters in flying saucers, lack of standing room in Noah's Ark, and palaeoweltschmerz—Glenn Jepsen

I noticed it too, rearing proudly in the photos of the toy fair venture - but I have one already, otherwise I would have been enquiring earnestly.

I will check but I don't think I have them to hand. I believe they're in a closet in Chicago whereas I am currently in upstate New York.
