thank you
I have to say, I was searching for the Acrocanthosaurus for a very long time
I finally was able to grab one in a store in the Netherlands for a decent price
The Dilophosaurus couple (Oasis & Green Day) is still available in a lot of online stores happily!

avatar_Abobo @Abobo My congratulations on your new acquisitions. Honestly, I really like your two figures the acrocanthosaurus and dilophosaurus and I am afraid that in the end both figures of Rebor's dilophosaurus I will end up not having them in my collection although they are very beautiful figures. Nice acquisitions!

I live in Spain, in my case I know not only about this company but also many others in the EU where they sell these figures, but in my case I prioritize expenses when buying figures and in my case I cannot have all the figures that I'd like. I really like the Rebor dilophosaurus but I prefer to buy figures of dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals little treated in the toy dinosaur collection or whose figures are scarce in my collection. Anyway thanks for your words!

In my case I have to prioritize the time of each day and the money in other things besides the expense of dinosaurs and the visualization of the Internet and the television. From the tyranny and dictatorship of television I have been completely liberated since July 30 of last year, since then I do not watch television and I am totally liberating myself from the dictatorship of the Internet I see little Internet and I visit the DTF in a more spaced way and I only see the Internet Apart from dinosaur themes, useful things such as oppositions pages and to view online stores where I can first compare and buy products such as supermarkets, household cleaning, to give two examples and choose the most economical option (that is, research).

In my case it's not that I can't buy Rebor's dilophosaurus but that I have to prioritize and look a bit for my personal finances. Now I focus on dinosaurs and prehistoric animals unknown in the world of the toy dinosaur or poorly treated from my honest point of view.  :)

Oh my god- this might be one of the best days of my life. Today is my birthday (party) and my mom suprised me with a cake. Sounds pretty casual, right? Wrong. In front of me is none other then the PNSO Microraptor, my favorite dinosaur and company. Saw a Safari LTD package also being dropped off today, so I doubt I have seen the end of it. But my word, this figure is BEAUTIFUL! He is not sitting up at the top of my collection, with all of my other favorite figures. The detail is better then my Winter Wilson and the feathers are all individually sculpted.

Hey, happy birthday. What a thoughtful gift :)

I first knew about these figures two years ago, and most of the figures were just a dream to get, so I never started to collect them. But a few months ago I bought in my country a tyrannosaurus in a mint box and a few weeks ago, a pristine iguanodon. I pitifully searched in eBay for more with very little hope (only some Polacanthus, which is my favourite figure by the way, but none of the others) ... never lost my hope until I saw a seller with 8 on sale, and neither of them were the ones I had! It had to be a signal or so ... I asked him for the lot, and the price was nice and affordable for me, most of the figures had a lot of wear and some even the name of the child written on the bellies, but I decided to buy them.

I spent two days carefully restoring them, so they looked as the beauty they were. I'm so happy I could cry. It's my dream come true, I never really thought I could get them all. The Laellynasaura and the Utahraptor are on the way. They appeared in eBay just after I bought the lot. I really think it was my lucky day.

What a find! Congratulations, enjoy them!

avatar_Lynx @Lynx Hope your birthday was most excellent. Congrats on all the new figures as well.

avatar_Duna @Duna Congrats on tracking all of those down. It sounds like you were really lucky. It's quite impressive to see all of those together too. It really is nice that most got figures and they were mostly close to their screen appearances.

You are surely very lucky. I've not seen it listed now for less than 70€ in Spanish second hand webpages. It's a very nice figure.

Thank you very much avatar_Faelrin @Faelrin avatar_sauroid @sauroid avatar_Reuben03 @Reuben03 avatar_ceratopsian @ceratopsian avatar_Halichoeres @Halichoeres  :)
