Quite a busy month, Robin! Where'd the small sharks come from? I don't recognize them.

They are sold by a company called Lontic. They usually make JP copies, but the marine series has mostly if not entirely original sculpts.

[Faelrin]

@RobinGoodfellow Really great assortment you've gotten there. Congrats. I especially like seeing the new Safari Ltd figures next to the CollectA ones. I don't have any of those yet, so this gives me a good idea of how they size up.

@Halichoeres :

Sharks are from an Happy Kin set with Colossal Squid and Orca.
I bought the set mainly for the Colossal Squid.
Different sets are available by Model Toy Center on Aliexpress:

HOLY SHI- S @Syndicate Bias MAJOR ENVY.
THOSE ARE AMAZING! The Carcharodontosaurus especially! Isn't that the premier model for Carchar? Who did you get it painted and finished by?

Not sure who did it but I got it from Mackeral who was generous enough to sell it to me for a lower price than the modem itself is at Dan's Dinosaurs.

@mgaguilar

The next one will be the Mo Models Giganotosaurus coming someday, one day!

[Faelrin]

@Loon Just want to give a heads up that I ordered the Dimetrodon on amazon since it is on backorder currently (April 8th). Now that just leaves the two attack packs until the others show up. I'll be checking Target again tomorrow (but mainly for minis and HTTYD stuff), maybe more stores.

That's probably for the best, I haven't found anything in weeks.

[Faelrin]

So my dad got me this Safari Ltd T. rex today for me at A.C. Moore. Goes nicely with the older Triceratops model. I think this one is retired too? I know this is the same sculpt that was repainted as a new for 2019 figure though.



Later today I got lucky enough to find a Postosuchus mini (well okay I had the code on hand, but they were nearly out of stock on the minis, and thankfully they had this one that I wanted), and the Lost World themed mini set at Target (along with the HTTYD Hidden World Hookfang set).

"New" Paposaurs:

[Shonisaurus]

I congratulate you on your two new acquisitions Roselaar but the photography is very dark you can not appreciate the two novelties of Papo 2019.

[Jose S.M.]

I got this three gems one week ago:



All of them are wonderful, in case of the dinosaurs one can't really tell how detailed they are until you see them in hand, their promo pics didn't make them justice. And that Pteranodon, my first flying reptile, it's just a beauty.

[Nimravus]

Some more acquisition from Christmas last year, and further photos in my thread

The two Mojos as not as bad as I thought! But the Kaiyodo Sofubi Tyrannosaurus is superb!


And some books I bought in the States


The last year's CollectA ungulates (Pere David deer, Fallow deer, Virginia's deer, Moufflon) and monkeys (Diana's monkey and ring-tailed lemur)


And finally some marine extant animals, Papo Walrus, marine elephant, and polar bear and Safari´s Harp seal

[Fembrogon]

These two arrived from Dejankins today. I promise to give them both reviews on the Blog in the near future!

Cool.

[Libraraptor]

Cool, the beefy Bullyland Allosaurus!

[Faelrin]

Probably the last one from me for a while. My Dimetrodon came today (which also came with a bunch of HTTYD shirts I also got off amazon. Was not expecting both of those to arrive on the same day, but nice). Also got a few more minis Sunday while out (managed to find the Diplodocus, Ceratosaurus, and Pachyrhinosaurus that I wanted to get).

[Nimravus]

Hey guys, these are further acquisitions from 2019:
The last two Eofauna creations, the classic Carnegie Carnotaurus, and the delicate Sciurumimus.



Then, some Safari figures from USA


More pictures in my thread

[Shonisaurus]

I congratulate you Nimravus for your new acquisitions. Show that you like dinosaur acquisitions very much like mine. The palaeoloxodon and giganotosaurus of Eofauna look splendid, the same can be said of the rest of the acquisitions, among which Carnegie's carnotaurus is perhaps the third best carnotaurus, after Carnotaurus of Safari 2019 (which would be the first) and that of Collecta 2019 (which would be the second) according to my own tastes.

On the other hand I will never tire of saying that it is a joy that Safari has made the uintatherium is one of my favorite prehistoric mammals. The camarasaurus is great. Enjoy them!
