Recent Acquisitions

[Kotori_Sonoda]

Not technically new but I thought i lost this a looooong time ago!

I had this as a kid, was a birthday present, and I found it while cleaning some stuff.

Found the new Postosuchus by Schleich in a bookstore of all places and took it home alongside a copy of Red Dragon, gotta say, it looks much better in person hence why I picked it over the Baryonyx (who also looks great but the paintjob is a bit lacking)

I can see why young kids love these (not to forget older ones like myself) - fabulous in-hand texture.

Got my first PNSO figures today, sans Sede, who's still in it's parcel.

I also just got the Mamenschisaurus in the mail. It's a very elegant piece and the $40 (including shipping) that I paid for it was quite manageable.

[Shonisaurus]

I'm glad for your new acquisitions. The ceratosaurus of PNSO is a very nice figure. I logically for reasons of space I have not bought it nor will I buy it for personal economic reasons and especially because I have no space. But the comments I celebrate that you have these two figures and to begin collecting PNSO figures on your part is a rather ambitious and strong commitment. Two very cool collection figures.

I have finally got the Eofauna Atlasaurus today and it is amazing how good this figure is. It's nothing short of gorgeous, the pose is active yet totally natural. The pose, the impressive details, the accurate anatomy and accuracy. Overall, the figure looks like a miniature sauropod that could go and walk at any time. It's the best dinosaur figure in my collection at the moment. Totally reccomend it!

[Tyto_Theropod]

Thanks @Concavenator.  The review on the blog had already convinced me to put this figure at the top of my wish list, but it's always good to have it endorsed by someone else.  Considering how impressed I am with their Giganotosaurus I'm looking forward to it.  I also definitely appreciate that it's a more 'off the beaten track' species.

[Shonisaurus]

@Concavenator Totally agree with you regarding the atlasaurus is a very well made dinosaur and one of the best sauropods made so far. I congratulate you on your new acquisition, as I have seen, the "Wise Men of the East" party has arrived and you have already opened the "Happy Kings Day" package. 

[Concavenator]

@Tyto_Theropod @Shonisaurus  thank you! Yes, the Eofauna Atlasaurus is a wonder. I took a picture of mine and posted it on Eofauna's Facebook page:

In the comments section, you can see my pic.

Very eager to see upcoming figures from them!

[Shonisaurus]

Nice photo of the atlasaurus on the desk. Honestly, Eofauna is perhaps one of the best dinosaur companies in PVC collection that exist worldwide and in my case I am also eager for Eofauna to market more prehistoric animal products.

[Fenestra]

My first new additions for 2020.

[Shonisaurus]

Fenestra congratulates you on your new dinosaur acquisitions, the Rebor stegosaurus may be the best stegosaurus made to date by the comments of some DTF members, surpassing the PNSO stegosaurus and Safari.

[Halichoeres]

Wow, that Blue is the size of an actual non-JP Velociraptor!

That Southlands kangaroo looks really good.

[Martwad]

First figures of the new year.  Was able to get a small lot off of eBay on the cheap.

[Faelrin]

Something very special arrived in my mail today. Something I haven't held in these hands since I was about 11 or 10, since it had been lost during my childhood. I'm 28 now, and very glad to be reunited with this after nearly two decades. I haven't felt nostalgia in this way in a very long time I think (though this aside I got hit with it again after learning of the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon remake and playing the demo. What a day).

Worth mentioning is that it isn't complete, but the extras that came with it more then make up for it I think (and really it is just a few accessories), as the bulk of it is still there (including the box). I also threw in a couple of my Mattel figures for size comparison pics. It's truly interesting to see how they well they work together.











And this girl here decided she would make herself comfortable sleeping on top of some of the figures not even an hour after opening it and checking it out:




@Fenestra @Martwad By the way, congrats on those excellent hauls there. I still need to pick up some of those myself.

[EmperorDinobot]

Nice find with the JP3 playset. I just added the fences to my existing playset to make a bigger park.

Here's my latest acquisitions in video form. I'm going to be showing them off this way from now on. It's easier.

[AcroSauroTaurus]

Found these over the weekend.

[Faelrin]

@AcroSauroTaurus Good to see you've managed to find those. My stores do not carry any of those yet, although even if they did I have to save up for the remaining Beasts of the Mesozoic ceratopsians I've pre-ordered that I still need to pay come February 7th. Quite a lot I'm behind on now in that case (these three, and a few others).

Also folks I'm sorry I didn't get around to posting about this yet, since I've had this since the 10th, but I've gotten myself another Brachiosaurus.

Here's some pics I did with it:








A bit overdue I guess after the other one had a paint issue, and ended up with my nieces as a holiday present. I'm very grateful Mattel sent me a refund after I messaged them about it, which I was able to use on this one, that thankfully was flawless. It now sits on the corner of my bed (as planned), and is certainly the largest toy I own now, and is definitely an eye catcher. If only my poor boy was still around to make "friends" with it.

And with that, this is the last of my things for now until after February I would assume. I need to save up for the rest of my pre-orders of the magnificent Beasts of the Mesozoic ceratopsians. From there I'll start catching up on Mattel's Primal Attack assortment.

[Silvanusaurus]

The latest addition to my Baryonyx collection...




The schleich figure but with dental treatment and extra paint detail.

[Halichoeres]

You've really brought out the best in that sculpt! Nice work.
