Libraraptor´s collection

[postsaurischian]

The Schleich Minis are even older, being from the 60s and were also still sold in the 90s. 

Sweet memories! This was my first collection, completed during my Kindergarden days.
This photo doesn't show the full set. All marine animals for example are missing.
There are 72 different figures and I still have them (would never give them away).

Here we see many, many Mammoths and my Schleich Minis:

[Lanthanotus]

Nice collection of vintage mammoths.... that painted Invicta, is it the "standard" painted one, or a custom? And those Schleich minis... that "Ursaurier" (Plateosaurus or whatever) was one of the first animal figures I ever got (for my 3rd birthday, gawd, that's long ago), but the original one got lost (or disintegrated by play) and is replaced for a "new" one since 25 years

Thank you!  Yes, you are right, it is the standard painted Invicta mammoth,  no Custom.

Plateosaurus.  Kaiyodo, Wagner, Bullyland Mini, Marx

[CityRaptor]

The Kaiyodo one really looks shrink-wrapped.  Also like it is begging for food.

Schleich and Bullyland Plateosaurus

[Lanthanotus]

Cute Plateo collection.... I really like the Bullyland mini. Those Bullyland minis seem incredibly hard to find.

I'll say... I've never even seen that one before.

Lovely Plateosaurs! And mighty Mammoth collection, too.

[Lanthanotus]

Yeah, me neither, I know that mini Plateo just from the review here on the blog...however, I keep on looking out for the other minis, particularly the Plesiosaurus, but they almost never ever appear anywhere, not even in lots.

[Halichoeres]

The facial expression on the Bullyland mini is brilliant!

White figures, black background. From top to bottom: Shapeways Isisaurus, Chap Mei Therizinosaurus, Krentz Gryposaurus, Safari unpainted Leptoceratops

[PlesiosaurusNessy]

Very cool white Dinos in black background, nice new acquisitions! I like the Mammoth collection very much and the Schleich mini dinos!
The two Plateosaurus are old treasures, I really admire the diversity of your collection!

Thank you Yeah, it took some time and effort; at the moment I am buying new items only occasionally, not half as many as I used to buy in the past. With two children, money is always a thing to keep in mind. And social workers don´t get paid as well as waste jobs like investment bankers  or car industry polluters.  And space, of course. yet there are still so many figures I am dreaming of. For example

Dawn Of The Dinosaurs Exaeretodon and Saurosuchus

The White Post figures

Doris from Bristol

I keep on searching and patiently wait for better times - in terms of my hobby - to come...

Oh man, I feel for ya

How does one find an unpainted mass production figure as that Safari Leptoceratops?

[PhilSauria]

How quirky are those Chap Mei figures! They always remind me of something that was designed for a Tim Burton film. I only have two on my shelves and I'd like to add more but I don't seem to come across them all that often and when I do the price tag is usually a deal breaker, especially on the marine reptiles.

[Libraraptor]

My Ichtyosaurs,  including the "Playful Home" one, a very nice figure which arrived today.

And here are my Plesiosaurs:

[Shonisaurus]

The Playful Home ichtyosaurus is a sincerely cool and greedy figure to buy. It reminds me of Schleich's miniature ichyosaurus.

...and your name made me remember I forgot Schleich Shonisaurus in my group picture:


@ Lanthanotus: I don't remember where I got that unpainted Safari Leptoceratops. I think acquired it in a mass trade. I forget where I got figures quite easily,  I did a lot of trades with many forum members already over the years.
