Got the new Mojo Fun Deinonychus

Am definitely going to attempt a touch up of sorts

More pics and paint flaw summary over on Mojo Fun: New for 2018

[Roselaar]

That cat is about to catch a bird! Well, close anyway... 

And I caught these. Added the finishing Papo and Collecta touches of 2018 to my collection:

[IrritatorRaji]

Congrats on finishing up the CollectA and Papo 2018 figures! That's a great small haul you've got there

[DragonRider02]

Some New stuff! I am currently in England, visiting my aunt. The CollectA Deluxe Therizinosaurus is gift from her. She ordered it on Everything Dinosaur. I really love that model! Colorful, large and the mane-like feathery crest gives it lots of character!
Baby Papo Triceratops is lovely too. I picked it up in local Toymaster store. I wasn't really planning to ever buy it, but it was the only Papo Dino they had (and it was standing with Schleich dinos instead of Papo shelf) and I was like "eh, it's better than nothing" so I bought it. A new ceratopsian is always welcome in my Collection, since besides this "Triceling" I only have 3 ...(and one of them is that super Old and ugly Schleich Trike lol)

[IrritatorRaji]

That baby Trike looks amazing! Tempted to pick one up myself :O

[CityRaptor]

Oh, nice hauls!

Well, I got a literally mixed haul:


Gimiki's Journey:
Eudimorphodon & Mussasaurus - both unique to that line.

Bullyland
Old small Triceratops - wasn't aware of that mold existing in orange, too. Kinda reminds me of Cera.
Newer small Stegosaurus


And now for the things you won't be seeing when I finally make my collection thread:

Cookie Cutters
Stegosaurus
Brontosaurus
There will be some more diversity among Christmas Cookies this year! ( But they belong into the kitchen, not my collection )

Jurassic World Slime Egg
Parasaurolophus - typical example of slapping a logo on an already existing piece of old junk and then selling it. Good thing I only paid 99 cents instead of the 5 or more Euros it costs on the internet. Would not buy again, but I was curious what was inside. 

Predasaurs Aqua Attack
Kharon the Stegocinus - A Hybrid: part Stegosaurus, part Orca, all unlikely to become part of the collection.

Nice hauls, all! Really excited to finally see the Mojo Deinonychus in the flesh 

I had a surprise work trip that brought me to Los Angeles, so I HAD to visit the La Brea tar pits. Found this neat figure set in the gift shop:



And these really cute, tiny porcelain figures:



They had some really very fossils and paleoart (including an original Charles Knight painting!) on display. Here's one of the more interesting ones:



An emaciated saber-tooth family... almost as thin as the "real" thing



This massive mammoth was one of my favorites:

[australovenator]

It's been a busy week for me, but this arrived in the mail a couple of days ago.



I'm very pleased, this guy is probably my favourite out of the line having now seen it in person. Quite a nice sculpt.

[Noiselessx]

I just got the Giga from Vitae and since there were some problems with the shipping, the seller sent me a baby Triceratops from Rebor as gift

[Shonisaurus]

The giganotosaurus of Vitae is a wonder it is a pity that the sinraptor, for example, has not made it to a larger size and the same is true for the rest of its figures.

The Triceratops by Rebor makes a very good pair in my collection by de Papo, they are charming miniatures.

[Halichoeres]

@paintingdinos Cool new stuff! I've been to LA a couple of times but somehow never made it to La Brea. That Ania set is pretty great. Are the porcelain ones from Little Critterz? I used to have their Xiphactinus.

[Takama]

Go a Protocasts Torosaurus.   
IT was Painted by Spinodude fromYoutube, and was an attempt to replicate his Monarch Paint Scheme

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cX2yzYj9KkI

However He made it too Dark by accident, but im not complaining

[IrritatorRaji]

The darkness is a shame but it still looks really great! Nice addition!

[Takama]

I will also State that the Photo is taken with my Mobile phone, so the Qulity is not the best. My camera recently crapped out on me, so im forced to use my phone until i get a new one

[IrritatorRaji]

These two arrived this morning! Been meaning to get the Dimorphodon for around a year now but always missed it on ED (and it was going for £30+ on Ebay which was a little ridiculous).

I got really lucky with the Compy though, only spent £3 on it! Ebay gave me a coupon, so I used it to get this Compy for a real nice price 










Also, was actually able to get the Compy to stand without resting on its tail

[Shonisaurus]

IrritatorRaji I congratulate you on your good taste. Collecta's dimorphodon is one of my favorite pterosaurs along with the guidraco of the same company and pterosaurs of Safari and Papo.

The compsognathus is the best made in the toy market from my point of view compared to other companies although it is based on the movie JW.


On the other hand you are an ace making pictures of prehistoric collecting animals. These close-ups favor the figures very much.

[IrritatorRaji]

@Shonisaurus

CollectA's Dimorphodon is also one of my favourite pterosaurs, I've never been a fan of flying reptiles but this figure is just too great to pass up I also agree with your points made about the Papo Compsognathus, definitely one of the best commercial models out there!

And thank you very much for the compliments on my taste and pictures

[paintingdinos]

@Halichoeres
Yep! The porcelain figures are from Little Critterz.

I'm really glad I went. I probably wont have much reason to travel back to LA in the foreseeable future, so it may have been a "once in a lifetime" type opportunity. Wish I'd had time to also visit their Natural History Museum.

[AcroSauroTaurus]

Got these recently.

[IrritatorRaji]

Sweet haul! Still waiting for that 5 pack and series 3 figures to appear in the UK
