I'm not going to buy them all at once, I could never get myself to do that. :P But I already ordered two figures today. Tyrannosaurus and Einiosaurus are on their way! :))

I was really fortunate that this big release of Safari figures came on the first year started collecting, my family gave me four of them! I'm going to post pictures soon, when my pc is fixed. If next year is going to be as big as these I better start a dinosaur special fund right now.

Silvanusaurus

I'm very excited that these are finally available in the UK, i've ordered several from Everything Dinosaur, but unfortunately can't afford the big fellers just yet, i'll have to wait for more funds before i can get the rex, giganotosaurus or kronosaurus, but at least it's something to look forward to!

Shonisaurus

I already ordered all the figures in October 2016 at shop.modellpferdeversand.de and they are all on the way. At the latest in seven days I have them in my house.

This was how the companies of Papo and Collecta had to do, releasing all their news at the end or beginning of each year, so that we can enjoy all their figures with more intensity. :))

I just wanted to tell Doug amazing work on the new feathered rex!! My husband gifted him to me for my birthday, and everyone that's seen it has been super impressed.
Beautiful sculpt! He's the jewel of my collection now. :))



:o


Wow! I am in awe at this figure! What's the scale like compared to the other Wild Safari Dinosaurs and even Carnegie? I was kind of curious to see some comparison shots of it.

look back through the thread, i posted some on page 79 and 80.

It's actually allot cheaper to order them all at once. Ordering 1 or 2 at a time will cost you big time with all those individual shipping and handling fees. :(

"3,000 km to the south, the massive comet crashes into Earth. The light from the impact fades in silence. Then the shock waves arrive. Next comes the blast front. Finally a rain of molten rock starts to fall out of the darkening sky - this is the end of the age of the dinosaurs. The Comet struck the Gulf of Mexico with the force of 10 billion Hiroshima bombs. And with the catastrophic climate changes that followed 65% of all life died out. It took millions of years for the earth to recover but when it did the giant dinosaurs were gone - never to return." - WWD

BlueKrono

Yeah, I usually save up, sometimes for years, then buy a bunch of stuff at once. I just got a slew of Starlux from France, which is one of the most expensive countries to ship from. But my collections were notoriously absent of the wonderful Stars.

I finally got my Christmas dinosaurs! 2017 Diplodocus, Einiosaurus, Coelophysis and Velociraptor. They are all great, can't post pictures right now because my pc is broken and I can't on mobile but soon I will post them.  :)

I was going to order the Tyrannosaurus and a few more figures from everything dinosaur just right now and guess what....IT´S OUT OF STOCK. :o
It is definitely the most demanded safari figure right now.
Damn! Now I have to wait until they re-stock them. >:( I feel so frustrated right now! >:(

So I've been wondering, aside from buying these online of course, is there any place I could buy these in person (like are there any stores that carry these) in the US? While I have no qualms with ordering online, I would really rather see the things in person before buying. Especially in regards to the new T. rex due to how pricey it is.

Safari has a dealer locator on their website. But museum gift shops are generally a safe bet.

When I visited the Denver museum of nature and science, they had a massive rack full of carnegies, and safari models. We then visited the Sternberg in Haysville, which had more of them same.....if you are located in the central US>

Funny thing I asked that earlier and ended up at a Hobby Lobby shop today while waiting to go into the movie theater (with my sister) and we were an hour early. They had a few Safari figures (the Carcharodontosaurus, Masiakasaurus, and Iguanodon), alongside some Mojo and Papo (brown T. rex and Spinosaurus). They also had lots of the toobs there. I would of loved to pick up that Iguanodon and Papo T. rex but had no money on hand at the time.  The Carcharodontosaurus looked much better in person to me then I would have thought, as well. So I guess that is one place, although it was a tiny selection at the very best.

Also do I need an account for the dealer locator? I'm having trouble trying to find out where this is on the site. May just be having a dumb moment though.

Has Safari's website already had the Feathered T-Rex in stock and I just happened to miss them? They have some of the other ones from this new wave but not that one.

Dobber

Yeah, the Rex is what is holding up my order from Dan's too. I wonder what the hold up is?

I think they removed that feature from the website.

Faelrin

If they removed it that may be why I seem to be having such a hard time finding it. Can't find what's not there. Really wish I knew what stores carried these aside from that one store I went to earlier in the week, so I can eventually hunt these down in person, especially in regards to the Feathered Tyrannosaurus, when it arrives in any case. I can take my chances with the other figures I want online, but that's the one I'd really like to see in person before buying it.
