Hello, my name is Erwan and I am a statues and fossils dinosaur collector. I started my collection in 2014 buying the dilophosaurus from Sideshow. I discovered recently that a lot of statues and companies exist and then this forum. Thank you for accepting me there.
I am french, so please excuse my broken english.
I created a facebook page to present my collection. I started it some weeks ago so for the moment, there are onky a few part of my collection: http://m.facebook.com/mydinocave/

Hello and welcome, and also congratulations for the French team achievements ...  :)

Nice collection you have - and good taste too ( and expensive taste - may I add ... ).

I too don't keep my collection behind glass - hope we won't later regret this both.

I see you already aquired several SIDESHOW statues - that's a formidable collection !

You also have some statues I see only for the first time :

I am not familiar with those two at the upper shelve - what are they ? :




- I don't recognize the Large Oviraptor at the top and the small figure at the bottom - what are those ?




What is this spinosaurus behaind the SIDESHOW Spino ?

No, Thank you.
It was refreshing to see a collection that doesn't start with a Papo Therisinosaurus, over to CollectA Estemmenosuchus and ends yet again with the Mattel T-rex.
You sure had added some needed diversity :)

Welcome, Bombyx! You have a beautiful collection. I especially like the little Belov shelf :)

Thank you everybody. I will try to participate as much as I can but it is difficult because of my broken english. ^^.

Please don't let that stop you! A lot of members speak other languages as their native tongue and everyone manages to understand everyone 😊 You'll be absolutely fine!

Yes, listen to avatar_Minmiminime @Minmiminime, if you do make an occasional mistake, well, nobody here will mind. ^-^ I don't think you need to worry anyway, your English sounds perfect to me! :)

Don't worry. Your English doesn't appear to be severly incorrect. The only mistakes I've seen thus far is one odd choice of a word, and a minor spelling mistake just as likely to have been caused by pressing the wrong key. There are also a handful of members who manage to get along despite having fairly broken English.

I am from Germany and my English suffers from a severe lack of regular use in talk.  So my English sometimes reads stiff amd clumsy which does hold me back from participating. Noone has to be ashamed here,  what matters is that one likes dinosaurs and prehistory! So welcome again!  As for your collection: congratulation,  top notch Pieces!

Found a sold one on Urzeitshop.de .
It realy is an impressive statue - your photoes don't do it any justice ...
But, I realy do hope you got it for less than the 869,00 € stated sold price ...

Mine has not the same color scheme and not the plants on the ground. I didn't know this version. I paid it $880.
