Recent Acquisitions

[Shonisaurus]

Nice acquisitions, the dinosaurs of Safari and Collecta are two of my favorite companies and two companies that make highly scientific figures.

Schleich Animantarx.  Like it very much!

[Roselaar]

Big box of dinosaurs arrived from the other side of the pond!

[Shonisaurus]

My congratulations Libraraptor for his animantarx of Schleich and Roselaar for his extensive and recent collection of figures of dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals of JW.

[Faelrin]

@Roselaar Congrats with that massive haul.

[AcroSauroTaurus]

Got these the weekend before last.

[CityRaptor]

Wow, CityRaptor, what a book haul!

Thanks. Toys were out of the question, but books were the way to go.

First proper haul of the year:

Normally I would wait for something costing 50 Euros to become cheaper, but given the limited number of that set made and the prices people on eBay are already asking for it, I decided to play it safe.

[Shonisaurus]

I congratulate you CityRaptor for your new acquisitions. I also like to bet for sure and in a certain way strong in the case of collecting. I prefer to have a rare dinosaur or prehistoric animal in the market at an expensive price to wait for another opportunity. The same does not occur another and life is very short and honestly we must seize until the last second, as I say "better bird in hand than a hundred and flying."

[AcroSauroTaurus]

Got this yesterday.

[Shonisaurus]

The famous concavenator in my land " Cuenca's Pepito".  I am not a follower of the figures of JW but I did not know that they have added that emblematic theropod of Spain.

My congratulations for that acquisition.

My Jurassic World Parasaurolophus from Amazon came today. She's a beauty. And she is the last film herbivore I need for my film species collection until the Brachiosaurus is released (and if the Corythosaurus and Apatosaurus ever get made too, but until then, for now, the Brachiosaurus will be the last I need). Have some pics:

In box:

Out of box with card:


The only thing I was wish better was the red on the head being a little more consistent in how it was applied and blended better at the back of the head with the neck, but minor thing. Good enough for me to have in any case, and I'm glad to put the search for this one to rest finally.

[PhilSauria]

It's not too bad, considering that it's a stylized piece of movie merchandise. This is one of the few Mattels to make it over here and I snapped this one up as soon as I saw it a few weeks back, bringing my herd of versions of this species up to an even dozen now.

Thanks for sharing.

[Jose S.M.]

I think it's actually a pretty good Para, except for those big feet but I understand it's for making a bipedal stance possible.

[Shonisaurus]

This figure of Mattels parasaurolophus is a pretty cute figure, it is a quite acceptable figure.

[Gothmog the Baryonyx]

That Parasaurolophus isn't too bad fora JP figure, I'm pleasantly surprised they actually made it quadrupedal, since they are generally bipeds in the films.

[Faelrin]

It is great that it can stand on two as well. Will fit a bit more snuggly in the place I had planned for it.

I also got the Albertosaurus today (with Para Pal):



Edit: All caught up until the wave 2 Dino Rivals hit my stores.

[Shonisaurus]

I congratulate you, it is good that the JW brand deals with carnivorous theropod dinosaurs as little represented as the albertosaurus.

[pylraster]

This dude, who dwarfs both the Papo and Rebor rexes.

I don't know what brand made it.

[Rain]

It looks to be one of those chimera knock offs, like that spinosaurus from a few months back. The head and left leg both look like they came from the REBOR rex. Pretty neat.

[Shonisaurus]

I congratulate you @pylraster , I also have that magnificent tyrannosaurus and I can comment that it is phenomenal. It far exceeds that of Rebor and Papo tyrannosaurus rex next to this magnificent specimen seem miniatures in relation to size. It's good, nice and cheap. I recommend it to all lovers of the figures of dinosaurs based on pop art.
