Nanuqsaurus' steadily improving collection

[Jose S.M.]

Great display! Looks really neat and organized.

[Beegfood]

Like your collection, getting better and better, simi,ar to mine!

But wait, did I just see a Beast of the Mesozoic Raptor right there?!
Ohh, this is unfair, I cant order them anywhere in Germany...

I like how well organized the Nanuqsaurus figures are, apart from this they have current animals (fortunately for now existing in nature and in zoos). I congratulate you on your new showcase. Nice collection.

Oh yeah, I posted that one in the ''Recent Acquisitions'' thread, so I didn't really think it'd be useful to post it again here too. I can tell you, it was quite an adventure to get one here in the Netherlands too, but with many thanks to Halichoeres it's finally here!

Nice shelves!  You will be surprised how quickly any spaces summon new occupants.

[DragonRider02]

Wow awesome looking Collection! I wish I had enough space in my room to buy some shelves and display my figures like this...
And I am So jelous about that Beast of the Mesozoic Raptor! I really want one they're So pretty! I even started to take Commissions on DA to get some money and buy one Raptor on Ebay but... Nobody wants to Commission me.

Looks very neat indeed! Wish mine was that well organized. Need to go and haunt the furniture stores for some decent shelves. Nature abhors a vacuum so you will be surprised at how quickly any spare space will fill up, particularly if the major brands continue to release as many figures as they have been doing lately.

[Bokisaurus]

Wonderful, always nice to have some space to display ones collection

[Roselaar]

Improving indeed! Some lovely new additions, a far cry from your start as just a Schleich collector.

[Halichoeres]

Loving the new display area!

[Nanuqsaurus]

Thanks everyone!

Here are some new figures I got from Everything Dinosaur this week.

Safari Microraptor, it's much bigger than I expected, especially for something with ''micro'' in the name! 


Safari Regaliceratops:


Papo Cryolophosaurus:

[Shonisaurus]

Nanuqsaurus are beautiful figures the microraptor, Safari regaliceratops and Papo cryolophosaurus. I congratulate you on your new acquisitions, they are two of the best companies in the toy market, both Safari and Papo.

Nice photos! Almost makes me want to go out and buy the Papo Cryolophosaurus.

Nice photos! Almost makes me want to go out and buy the Papo Cryolophosaurus.

It's a stunning figure. I can understand that the pose is not everyone's taste, but the detailed sculpt and amazing paint application make up for it.  And the pose isn't that bad when you see it in person, it's probably meant to be temporarily rearing up, and not the animal's default stance. Besides, it's not really a tripod either, as it can stand on both legs without the tail touching the ground. So I'd say it's a nice figure to have, especially since Cryolophosaurus is not a very well represented genus in toy form.

Hmm, it's not so much the pose that's given me pause, just the overall look - very '90s and all that 

[Nanuqsaurus]

Three new figures! I'm starting to notice a pattern here, it seems I almost always order three figures. I'm not sure why, but three is a nice number! I'm also starting to notice it's a lot of Safari lately... I'm trying to expand a bit more on the mammals, and Safari makes a lot of good ones, so I guess that's why!

Safari Anzu:


Safari Hyaenadon:


Safari Megatherium, including the ultimate display branch I found by accident in the backyard! It can grip it, stand on it, and it just fits perfectly. The branch almost feels like part of the set!

[Shonisaurus]

Nanuqsaurus both the hyaenodon and the Safari anzu are two of my favorite figures and do not have to envy any brand of expensive collection. They are two detailed figures.

The megatherium is one of the prehistoric mammals of Safari but honestly I like more the one of the company Bullyland sadly disappeared.

My congratulations Nanuqsaurus for your new acquisitions.

[Halichoeres]

Three is a good number. I used to buy them in fours, just because I like multiples of four. That lichen-covered branch looks pretty good! I wonder if some of the lichens will lose their color if they stay indoors.

To be honest, the lichens changing color isn't really my biggest concern, but all the sand and dirt from that branch sure makes cleaning my shelves a lot more work!

Anyway, here's (again) three new figures for my collection! And surprise! One of them isn't a Safari! Two mammals this time, and one dinosaur. All three are splendid looking figures, and I'm glad to have them. As always, thanks to Everything Dinosaur for the friendly service and fast delivery! 

Safari Macrauchenia:


Safari Ankylosaurus:


Eofauna Palaeoloxodon:

[Nanuqsaurus]

I got a few new figures a while ago, which I hadn't posted here yet. A few days ago, I got two more when celebrating the Dutch holiday Sinterklaas, so this seems like a good moment to post them all in one go.

Safari Smilodon and Safari American Mastodon:


Safari Amargasaurus:


Papo Therizinosaurus and Papo Baryonyx:


All of them are stunning figures! The Smilodon and Therizinosaurus are replacements for their rather monsterous Schleich counterparts. They're a huge improvement I'd say!
