Roselaar's Collection Version 1: 2012-2017

[Tyrannosaurid lover]

God damit!! to much jurassic park im overloadead.
*yuck*.
Well you have some of the hardest figures, I want the series 2 young t.rex, you have a one of the best  collections that I ever see.

[Roselaar]

Some more Lost World:

Plus two now.


Plus one.


Plus one.


Minus one Glider Pack Malcolm figure. Yes, the opposite of acquiring occasionally happens. 

[Roselaar]

Been a while, let's continue TLW:

[Roselaar]

And some more:



Probably my favorite JP dinosaur figure. And all come with all of their dino damage pieces too. 


Only one of these Pachys features the infamous 'button under skin' variation.



Not the best Carnotaurus figure, but still pretty decent. Extremely hard to find one loose with both dino damage patch and all seven pieces of capture gear. Less harder, but more expensive, to find one MIB.

[tyrantqueen]

Wow, that Carno is...bad XD The forearms are just totally wrong. The red and black one was better

[Metallisuchus]

Isn't it Chasmosaurus, not Chasmasaurus?

[Roselaar]

The red and black one was better

True, but I kinda like this one too. It has a unique action feature by JP standards, plus a cool dino damage wound. If only the paint job wasn't more or less identical to the one from the JPS1 Red Rex...

Isn't it Chasmosaurus, not Chasmasaurus?

It is. But Kenner got prehistoric creature names wrong more often. 'Dimetradon' and 'Estemmenosuchas' for example, not to mention mistaking 'Compsognathus' for their own hybrid Chaos Effect invention 'Compstegnathus'. However, I forgive them because those figures are so awesome. 

[Metallisuchus]

Wow - especially the compy thing... I remember noticing as a child that the DNA vile containing Stegosaurus DNA is misspelled "Stegasaurus" in the first film.

[Roselaar]

Some more TLW:

[Roselaar]

Doing a fair bit of double-posting here, but I don't mind. Let's get a little rare here :


Still the only Estemmenosuchus figure around?



Ornithosuchus is also a rarely featured species. A shame.

[Roselaar]

And now for some controversy: JP: Chaos Effect. Like them or leave them, I tend to swing both ways.


If only they released all the figures they planned for this line. Such a shame to lose the Ankylosaurus and Ultimasaurus... 

[CityRaptor]

You know for some odd reason, I now like Chaos Effect more than I did years before.  Should have gotten more than just Raptor Alpha, Tyrannonops and Tanaconda back then when those three, the Ankyloranodon, Compstegnathus and Amargospinus where available in Germany...
As for the Ultimasaurus, I  sometimes pretend this guy is one:


Overall, I have to say, you have an impressive collection!

[Roselaar]

As for the Ultimasaurus, I  sometimes pretend this guy is one:

Oh my, the general resemblance to the Ultimasaurus is uncanny. What kind of figure is that exactly?

[CityRaptor]

It's Kabell the Triceratholestes from Predators DNA Fusion.  Second series, Predasaurs Insect Invasion, has Kali the Ankteranodon. Guess who he resembles....

[EmperorDinobot]

What do you do with so many carded figures?

[Roselaar]

What do you do with so many carded figures?

Use them for wallpaper (and as a potential financial safety net in the future, though I'm not proud to admit it), what would you do with them? 

[EmperorDinobot]

Uh...sell them. To the less fortunate like myself (JK, I have everything but the TLW s2 humans, and the two Chaos Effect small vehicles, and anything that's unreleased).

But I wouldn't bet on financial security for the future. It's always a possibility, but in reality, toys are just...toys, and I feel like they've lost a lot of value recently since collectors are the main buyers. In other words, if you wanna sell stuff, do it now. Not later. Trust me I did the study.
But it's still an amazing bloody collection. A bit of hoarding, but hoarding is ok.

You got any of the JP DieCast figures? I'm interested in buying some carded and some to open up for the master display. IDK why I want the Carded ones except to do a wallpaper thing, and the loose ones to go with the mini dino and Matchbox display.

[Jetoar]

Amazing collection! you are lucky  .

I was thinking more of selling them 30+ years down the road. They're bound to be worth more at that time. I'm just not very interested in selling them now because I'm not in dire need of money at the moment. I am interested in good trades though (got a thread for that in the classifieds).
I do have some JP Die-Casts too. Same story, though maybe not as outrageous hoarding as regular JP figs.

And here's a pic of my JP die-cast figures:
