avatar_Loon @Loon Good prices for both of them. Just where I was guessing too. Thanks.

Edit: I should also mention that someone has contacted me, and is interested in the Ellie figure. Still interested in getting my hands on that BD Pteranodon if anyone here is able to hook me up with one.

Got this in the mail from Fauna Figures, which is scaling back majorly and has nearly all remaining items on clearance. Only the Diprotodon is for me; the rest will go to my son once he's old enough. Annoyingly, the eagle/snake can't stand up properly!

Glad they made it to you! I have heard about the eagle issue, but I haven't unwrapped any myself to test it. I hope a bit of heat and cold water can adjust it to stand.

Yeah, I may take a stab at that later on. My little one likes the red kangaroo the best, although I'm probably going to put it away for another two years. Sharp ends on that sucker.

The journey of the solidly middle-class failson with no economic pressures continues...

I got a slip for missing my Everything Dinosaur package, which my dad thought was a package for my mom from "Everything Diva".

Here is the continued expansion of my CollectA collection (+ a Papo Tupuxura), and I'm getting really into these figures, this Dunkleosteus rocks. Though, the Basilosaurus is a little too similar to cheap dollar store figures, minus the hollowness.

That dunkleosteus is one heavy hunk of plastic

Got the tenonto.carcass and the deinos for my acro today! The circle is now.complete  >:D

Faelrin

S @Syndicate Bias Congrats on getting those. That's one heck of an awesome diorama when complete. If only I had the space (and money) for all of it, because it's definitely a unique offering for what it is (mostly to scale, and contemporaries, and few accuracy issues).

Also I'm a few days late posting this pic. I probably should have done it the day I uploaded my most recent haul, but I forgot. In any case I now have my Dakotaraptor claw cast, and the physical (and digital) copy of the Saurian field guide. Now that I finally have this stuff, I'm a lot less bitter now about the whole thing. I'm still not sure why it took this long (outside of the rex design and artwork following it), but whatever. It's definitely something worth having for the effort put into it in terms of the research and of course the artwork. That and it is the only thing I can think of that is so extensive in terms of covering a prehistoric ecosystem (such as environments, fauna, and flora). The only thing I am disappointed on is that it is not hard cover, but perhaps that was not a feasible option (if even available) at the time of printing it. and that the tips of most pages have been bent due to how it was shipped, being shoved in an envelope that barely contained it. The claw also currently sits on the shelf containing my BotM raptors, and some Jurassic, and misc things. Probably the most fitting place for it.

I also ordered that book when I saw the shots of all the plants and small animals that are in it. Thanks for the report on the lazy packaging; now I'm braced for it.

Hopefully it goes well for you. At least the content is really good, though I've only skimmed through it so far.

EarthboundEiniosaurus

avatar_Faelrin @Faelrin, how did you get the digital copy? I backed the original kickstarter at that tier but haven't gotten an email or anything.

It should be on your backerkit account with the rest of your digital rewards (such as OST, game code, etc). Odd that you didn't get an email though.

Ravonium

First acquisition of the new year: 3 of the new PNSO minis. I was also supposed to get the Odontochelys and the Anchiornis, but they ended up being mixed up with two other minis:


Shonisaurus

Ravonium I'm glad you already enjoy your first PNSO miniatures of 2019. I'm totally enthusiastic about these figures.

Syndicate Bias





Allosaurus arrived today but the box was heavily damaged. I guess good thing it came in one  :))

Shonisaurus

S @Syndicate Bias By the way, this allosaurus I know is PVC if I'm not mistaken, but I think the foot is made of resin, is not it? and the same can be said about the base that is polyresin. I mention it to you because I'm interested in buying it from Acro-man and it's to be informed, with a resin base. I honestly think it's great, but in my case I'm not interested in it because I would have to buy another shelf to house that dinosaur. On the other hand an incredibly beautiful allosaurus.

I would recommend it my friend. The base is small and very tight and secure for the Allosaurus. I'm pretty sure it's made of said materials you mentioned as avatar_Minmiminime @Minmiminime said in her video review about it.

Don't worry about shelf space the base is small enough to 0ut it in a corner
