Mitko's collection

[Mitko]

Hi!
I would like to start off with my all time childhood favourite - the Bullyland Tyrannosaurus Rex, almost certainly he's still my favourite. I got him as a present on New Year's eve more than 10 years ago. He has seen everything, from being on the table next to me, probably even in my bed, to being in the basement. He fought and killed all dinosaurs I had at that time, several times, and those fights contributed to the missing paint, especially around his mouth. I consider refreshing it's paint but I don't know what kind of paint I need, though I'm a bit concerned that I may riun it because of my lack of exerience.

Hadn't properly looked at this figure before. Can't wait to see what else you have in store!

[Mitko]

I looked at him more like a toy than a figure that I should have taken care of. I'm afraid that my collection is not big and on top of that it's quite hard to find any dinosaur figures in our city apart from Schleich, which, personally, I don't like and I shall soon end up having nothing to show... New pics coming tomorrow!

PS: Oh, I tried to paint Rexy's teeth with correction fluid long ago, it didn't come out very good.

I like toys and figures and personal storys connected to them. I´d like to see more and hear more stories about which figures mean much to you and why.

You will.

Carnegie Tyrannosaurus Rex. The thing with this one is that long ago I saw a T.rex figure in a toy store and told my parents that I want it. They bought him instead of the one that I wanted and I was a bit disappointed when they gave him to me. In the beginning I took him with me but then I decided to leave him in our other house where we go on holiday. Until this year when I thought it's time for him to join my collection.

WWD 3D 2013 Gorgosaurus
I felt through all blind bags in both of the toy shops offering them and I found only one, so I consider Gorgon rare.

Nice Mitko i love wwd mini gorgo its very customable for diorama yes wwd mini gorgo is hard to find if you never found it before because its in blind bag. But, once you got it it will be easier for you to identify which blind bag that have mini gorgo inside. First time i try my luck i only got 1 gorgo in 10 blind bag, guess what in second try i got so many mini wwd gorgo lol

[Mitko]

Thanks! I didn't find it difficult to distinguish Gorgon from the other figures, I was looking for a long straight tail and once I felt the head I knew it was him.

I'm planning to make a stand for him today and I'm also going to take some photos for the Diorama contest in the afternoon, probably, I will go for another round of pics next week.

Hi!

It's been a very long time since I was for the last time, hasn't it? In fact, almost a year. The reason why is that I lost interest in dinosaurs, which is how it is most of the time. However, woth buying some new figures, my interest is sort of back...for now.

And here are some photos of my Papo T-rex:

[Dilopho]

Lovely figures! Lovely photos too! 
Tell me Mitko, do you only have Tyrannosaurs? 

[Megalosaurus]

Nice choice.
Papo makes pretty detailed toys. I like it a lot.

[Mitko]

Thank you, guys!
Dilopho, no, I have different ones, but I had only it with me when I was taking the pictures.

CollectA Metriacanthosaurus. I didn't know much about this dinosaur, except that it was a Jurassic mid-sized European theropod.  And now that I know more, I know it comes from England. When it came out I was not planning on getting it. Only recently did I decide to get it and having spent some time with it I have started to like it.

[Dilopho]

Hmmm.....that's a really nice figure! I don't like the base colour though, horrible bright yellow.

[Mitko]

No, it isn't bright yellow, it's more like dark yellow. Just phones's cameras kind of over-saturate(if that is what it's called) the colours.

[Dilopho]

No, it isn't bright yellow, it's more like dark yellow. Just phones's cameras kind of over-saturate(if that is what it's called) the colours.

Ah, I see!

CollectA Irritator. Which I got this year and not 5 years ago when it came out, probably that's because I didn't know the company existed back then. It looks better than it looks both on the photos and in the CollectA's book.
