Quite the centerpiece. It's worth the money then, it would seem.

Very nice. If it weren't for the pronated wrists, which really bug me, I'd definitely buy it.

I'm allergic to pronated bunny wrists myself. But these seem to me to be more semi-pronated. Many times I've been able to correct these by careful "surgery", so this might be a case in point. Stiil, I get the point, it's frustrating, but it seems to be a perennial issue with the JP type T-rex figures.

@Abobo My congratulations. What a majestic piece is that Nanmu tyrannosaurus! Is beautiful!

Today this beauty showed up :

The Nanmu Once & Future king T-Rex "Green" variant, a huge beast if you compare it with the Papo Spinosaurus :

Great figure. Very high quality and a paintshop without any objection!

After I finished some business this morning, I couldn't help to check the toy section of a department store...

Gothmog the Baryonyx · October 09, 2021, 06:19:09 PM

Is the front one an Alioramus?

Affirmative.

Noice!

It's however movie accurate.

Got some stuff for my birthday ( that pic ended up smaller than intended )

MLMjp · October 11, 2021, 11:53:06 PM

So, basically, I did the exact same thing I did the other day and...

@CityRaptor is that documentary worth it despite it having a picture of a V. rex?

CityRaptor · October 12, 2021, 12:11:41 AM

Well, I got it as a gift. ( I only wished for the Vagaceratops and GvK ) Stuff also shouldn't be judged by the cover. There are so many releases with misleading covers. But it has Jack Horner.

Shonisaurus · October 13, 2021, 08:18:25 AM

@CityRaptor My congratulations, it is better to collect a few figures than many. That vagaceratops is a very beautiful figure like all the ceraptosids made by Safari and his exceptional sculptor.

@MLMjp My congratulations on your new articulated figures.

Eocarcharia · October 13, 2021, 05:08:22 PM

Always so many great acquisitions here, I'm sorry I don't check in often enough to give them all individual compliments.

As for me, yesterday I took advantage of Target's current and former sales to catch up on some Jurassic products.

Gothmog the Baryonyx · October 14, 2021, 12:11:12 AM

Err, I bought a thing from

@Everything_Dinosaur on Monday that arrived today. A very big thing. (Also bought a CollectA Kentrosaurus)

The Paraceratherium will be going centre back of a high shelf currently filled with Harry Potter figurines that are going back in their boxes. Will be splitting my Cenozoic animals by scale rather than geographical region from now on. (Aside from Pleistocene Europe). I was kinda hoping the CollectA Doedicurus would be here to go on that shelf too so I don't have to go up there twice lol but I can't leave this behemoth in its massive box for several weeks.

Thialfi · October 14, 2021, 12:12:43 AM

You bought beauty, congratulations Gothmog!

DragonRider02 · October 14, 2021, 04:45:30 AM

Finally, After almost entire year of waiting for all the new CollectA figures to become avaiable in my Country, they are here. I have literally been checking out all the online stores that stock CollectA for over a month every day, just waiting for that Pteranodon to become avaiable so I could order everything I wanted together. And for some reason he turned out to cost quite a bit more than last year Caviramus. But maybe it's Just the particular store that I got it from that was selling it for such high price, as for some reason prices of Supreme Pterosaurs (and some other CollectA Deluxes) seem to Vary quite a lot between online stores here. But after all that time I didn't want to wait any longer. I am happy I finally have all the 2021 figures I wanted the most. I was planning to get the Pravitoceras as well, but since Pteranodon turned out to be so expensive, I had to pass it for now.

Shonisaurus · October 14, 2021, 08:20:20 AM

@Eocarcharia My congratulations on your new acquisitions. That JW apatosaurus even though you only see the box, it looks tremendous.

@Gothmog the Baryonyx My congratulations for having also encouraged you to buy that beauty, perhaps one of the best prehistoric mammals made to date. I don't think that any company will surpass this figure of that species in years in size and artistic quality, it is undoubtedly the star figure of iToy by far.

@DragonRider02 My congratulations on your new acquisitions, the pteranodon and mamenchisaurus look immense, how lucky you have collected it in your nation! ... unfortunately in mine these figures have not arrived and I have them in charge, sincerely with your photo one open mouth. I count the days to buy these figures and indulge myself.

Thanks for the mention, the ITOY Studio Paraceratherium is certainly an underrated model. As for the CollectA Doedicurus it was due in stock at

@Everything_Dinosaur in September but like everything else there have been problems with logistics, CollectA figures are imminent - hopefully this week, but I am not holding my breath. We will announce another stunning ITOY Studio model soon.

Concavenator · October 15, 2021, 12:54:57 AM

Congrats everyone on your new figures!

Myself, I´m quite happy with this haul:

I´m loving them, this haul includes my first Vitae and GR Toys figures. Of course I knew these are great companies, but really glad to finally have some of them. I also took advantage of the fact that the Safari Einiosaurus and Schleich Diabloceratops are now discontinued.

I also ordered the PNSO Borealopelta, the BotM Chasmosaurus (which will be my first BotM figure!),and Eofauna´s theropod book, so I´m very excited about these arriving as well.

There are some more pictures in my collection thread if you want to see more.
